Calibration database design for the wide-field X-ray telescope on board the Einstein Probe

Huaqing Cheng, Hai-Wu Pan, Yuan Liu +6

The wide-field X-ray telescope (WXT) is the primary payload of the Einstein Probe (EP) mission. Utilizing innovative lobster-eye micro-pore optics (MPO), it achieves an unprecedent…

Onboard catalog of known X-ray sources for EP-WXT

He-Yang Liu, Haiwu Pan, Yuan Liu +14

The Einstein Probe (EP) is dedicated to explore the dynamic X-ray universe and capture transient events in real time with its Wide-field X-ray Telescope (WXT). However, WXT's unpre…

A fast powerful X-ray transient from possible tidal disruption of a white dwarf

Dongyue Li, Wenda Zhang, Jun Yang +97

Stars captured by black holes (BHs) can be torn apart by strong tidal forces, producing electromagnetic flares. To date, more than 100 tidal disruption events (TDEs) have been obse…

Hard X-ray Emission in AU Mic Flares: A Minor Contributor to Planetary Atmospheric Escape

Yifan Hu, Murray Brightman, Fabio Favata +7

Stellar flares are potent drivers of atmospheric evolution on orbiting exoplanets, primarily through extreme ultraviolet (EUV) and soft X-ray (XUV) irradiation. However, the contri…

Multiwavelength Observations of the Apparently Non-repeating FRB 20250316A

Ye Li, Hui Sun, Lei Qian +72

The physical origin of fast radio bursts (FRBs) remains uncertain. Although multiwavelength observations have been widely conducted, only Galactic FRB~20200428D is associated with…
