Multiwavelength Analysis of the Einstein Probe X-ray Transient EP240305a
Ruican Ma, Ye Li, Lian Tao +32
We report multiwavelength observations of EP240305a, an uncatalogued X-ray transient detected by the Einstein Probe on March 5, 2024. The source exhibits distinct characteristics a…
A Complete X-ray View of Supernova Remnant W28 with Einstein Probe: Spatial Distribution of Parameters and Origin of the Thermal-Composite Morphology
Yi-Heng Chi, Ping Zhou, Yang Chen +6
It has been an unsolved question what leads a supernova remnant (SNR) to a thermal composite rather than a typical shell-like morphology, and what causes recombining plasma inside…
The Optical Properties of Host Galaxies of Radio Sources in the Coma Cluster
Xiaolan Hou, Heng Yu, Tong Pan +4
We present a comprehensive study of host galaxies of radio sources within the 1.35 of the Coma cluster by combining deep 144MHz observations from the LOFAR Two-Metre Sky S…
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…
EP250207b is not a collapsar fast X-ray transient. Is it due to a compact object merger?
P. G. Jonker, A. J. Levan, Xing Liu +41
Fast X-ray Transients (FXTs) are short-lived extra-galactic X-ray sources. Recent progress through multi-wavelength follow-up of Einstein Probe discovered FXTs has shown that sever…
The enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry mission -- eXTP for launch in 2030
Shuang-Nan Zhang, Andrea Santangelo, Yupeng Xu +155
In this paper we present the current status of the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry mission, which has been fully approved for launch in 2030. eXTP is a space science mission…
