Magnetar X-ray flares as elementary reconnection events in a self-organized critical magnetosphere
Sheng-Lun Xie, Yi Zhao, Wen-Long Zhang +3
Magnetar bursts are commonly attributed to magnetic energy release, yet the physically relevant dissipation unit has remained uncertain. Here we argue that this unit is not the bur…
Evidence of self-organized criticality in the prompt emission of a bright gamma-ray burst
Wen-Long Zhang, Wen-Jun Tan, Hao-Tian Lan +18
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most energetic explosive events in the Universe, yet the physical mechanism of their prompt emission remains a mystery. Especially, it is unclear wh…
GECAM discovery of the second FRB-associated Magnetar X-ray Burst from SGR J1935+2154
Chen-Wei Wang, Shao-Lin Xiong, Yue Wang +47
Fast radio burst (FRB) is mysterious phenomenon with millisecond-duration radio pulses observed mostly from cosmological distance. The association between FRB 200428 and a magnetar…
Systematic Study of the Simultaneous Events Detected by GECAM
Yang-Zhao Ren, Feng-Rong Zhu, Shao-Lin Xiong +45
GECAM is a constellation of all-sky monitors in hard X-ray and gamma-ray band primarily aimed at high energy transients such as gamma-ray bursts, soft gamma-ray repeaters, solar fl…
Brightest GRB flare observed in GRB 221009A: bridge the last gap between flare and prompt emission in GRB
Zheng-Hang Yu, Chen-Wei Wang, Shao-Lin Xiong +46
Flares are usually observed during the afterglow phase of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) in soft X-ray, optical and radio bands, but rarely in gamma-ray band. Despite the extraordinary br…

Magnetar X-ray Burst (MXB) is usually composed of a single pulse or multiple pulses with rapid rise and brief duration mostly observed in hard X-ray (soft gamma-ray) band. Previous…
Magnetic Reconnection as a Potential Driver of X-ray Variability in Active Galactic Nuclei
Chen-Ran Hu, Yong-Feng Huang, Lang Cui +13
We present a systematic analysis on the X-ray variability in 13 bright quasars at z > 4.5, combining recent Swift observations from 2021 to 2023 and archival multi-epoch observatio…
Extending the short gamma-ray burst population from sub-threshold triggers in Fermi/GBM and GECAM data and its implications
Ce Cai, Shao-Lin Xiong, Yan-Qiu Zhang +21
Detection of short gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) is critically important for the research of compact object mergers and multi-messenger astrophysics, but a significant part of SGRBs fal…
Multi-Instrument Search for Gamma-Ray Counterpart of X-ray Transients detected by EP/WXT
Yan-Qiu Zhang, Wang-Chen Xue, Jin-Peng Zhang +25
As a soft X-ray imager with unprecedentedly large field of view, EP/WXT has detected many (fast) X-ray transients, whose nature is very intriguing. Whether there is gamma-ray count…
