Anisotropic Particle Transport from a Pulsar Wind Nebula Revealed by Einstein Probe and LHAASO
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +339
Pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) are major cosmic ray accelerators, yet the mechanisms transporting high-energy particles into the interstellar medium remain elusive. Building on the LHA…
A fast X-ray transient from a weak relativistic jet associated with a type Ic-BL supernova
H. Sun, W. -X. Li, L. -D. Liu +163
Massive stars end their lives as core-collapse supernovae, amongst which some extremes are broad-lined type Ic supernovae from Wolf-Rayet stars associated with long-duration gamma-…
Hydrogen-poor Superluminous Supernovae with Bumpy Light Curves Powered by Precessing Magnetars
Biao Zhang, Long Li, Zi-Gao Dai +1
Recent observations and statistical studies have revealed that a significant fraction of hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe-I) exhibit light curves that deviate from the…
Signature of Triaxially Precessing Magnetars in Gamma-ray Burst X-Ray Afterglows
Biao Zhang, Shu-Qing Zhong, Long Li +1
The X-ray afterglows of some gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) exhibit plateaus, which can be explained by the internal dissipation of a newborn millisecond magnetar wind. In the early phase…
Reverse Shock Emission from Misaligned Structured Jets in Gamma-Ray Bursts
Sen-Lin Pang, Zi-Gao Dai
The afterglow of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) has been extensively discussed in the context of shocks generated during an interaction of relativistic outflows with their ambient medium.…
