Evolution of fallback discs around millisecond magnetars: effect of supercritical accretion on GRB afterglows
Sercan Çıkıntoğlu, Sinem Şaşmaz, M. Hakan Erkut +1
Some models of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) invoke nascent millisecond magnetars as the central engine and address the X-ray afterglows with the interaction of magnetar magnetospheres w…
A Possible Discovery of the Optical Counterpart of the X-ray source NuSTAR J053449+2126.0
E. N. Ercan, E. Aktekin Çalışkan, M. H. Erkut +2
We report the observation of a possible optical counterpart to the recently discovered X-ray source NuSTAR J053449+2126.0 (J0534 in short). We observed the source location using th…
Radio luminosity of GLEAM-X J162759.5-523504.3: does it really exceed the spin-down power of the pulsar?
M. Hakan Erkut
The recently discovered radio pulsar GLEAM-X J162759.5-523504.3 with an extremely long spin period was reported to have a radio luminosity that exceeds by orders of magnitude the s…
On the Spin Period of the Neutron Star in the Ultraluminous X-Ray Source M51 ULX-8
Mehmet Hakan Erkut
The recent discovery of periodic pulsations from several members of the ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) family in nearby galaxies as well as in our own galaxy unveiled the nature…
On the Mass and Magnetic Field of the Neutron Star in the Ultraluminous X-Ray Source NGC 300 ULX1
Mehmet Hakan Erkut
The accreting compact objects in most of ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are likely to be neutron stars rather than black holes as suggested by the recent detection of periodic…
Synergies of THESEUS with the large facilities of the 2030s and guest observer opportunities
P. Rosati, S. Basa, A. W. Blain +37
The proposed THESEUS mission will vastly expand the capabilities to monitor the high-energy sky, and will exploit large samples of gamma-ray bursts to probe the early Universe back…
