We report the detection of type-II X-ray bursts in a neutron star low mass X-ray binary MXB 1730-335 (also known as Rapid Burster) observed with Insight- HXMT satellite. We found s…
Detection of disk-jet co-precession in a tidal disruption event
Yanan Wang, Zikun Lin, Linhui Wu +46
Theories and simulations predict that intense spacetime curvature near black holes bends the trajectories of light and matter, driving disk and jet precession under relativistic to…
Highly Polarized Intrinsic Emission and its Orthogonal Counterpart in Vela X-1
WanYun Wu, Fei Xie, Long Ji +2
Vela X-1 is one of the most archetypal wind-fed X-ray pulsars (XRPs), and the emergence of its orthogonal polarization states reveals distinctive polarimetric properties. Using dat…
Revealing an Oscillating and Contracting Compact Corona near the Event Horizon of the Supermassive Black Hole in 1ES 1927+654
Qing-Cang Shui, Shu Zhang, Shuang-Nan Zhang +7
Dynamic processes in the accretion flow near black holes produce X-ray flux variability, sometimes quasi-periodic. Determining its physical origin is key to mapping accretion geome…
IGR J17091-3624: Newly Formed Periodic Dips and Multiwavelength Activity During the 2025 Outburst
Zikun Lin, Yanan Wang, Shuyuan Wei +15
The black hole low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) candidate IGR J17091-3624 experienced a hard-state-only outburst in 2025. In this paper, we show that IXPE detected a series of intermit…
Orbital phase shifts of Type-I outbursts in EXO 2030+375
Run-Ting Huang, Long Ji, Jing-Zhi Yan
EXO 2030+375 is a peculiar high-mass X-ray binary that has been exhibiting Type-I outburst activities consistently over the past decades. The phases of outburst peaks are generally…
The peculiar disk evolution of 4U 1630--472 observed by Insight-HXMT during the 2022 and 2023 outbursts
Jing-Qiang Peng, Shu Zhang, Qing-Cang Shui +10
We study the spectral properties of the black hole X-ray transient binary 4U 1630--472 during the 2022 and 2023 outbursts with Insight-HXMT observations. We find that the outbursts…
Insight-HXMT, NICER and NuSTAR views to the newly discovered black hole X-ray binary Swift J151857.0--572147
Jing-Qiang Peng, Shu Zhang, Qing-Cang Shui +10
The systematic properties are largely unknown for the black hole X-ray binary Swift J151857.0--572147 newly discovered in the 2024 outburst. The nature of a black hole can be compl…
New insight into the hard X-ray emission influenced by the type-\uppercase\expandafter{\romannumeral1} bursts observed by Insight-HXMT during outburst of 4U 1636--536
J. Q. Peng, S. Zhang, Y. P. Chen +17
By analyzing the data from Insight-HXMT and NICER, we can determine the evolution of the significance of the hard shortage in 4U 1636--536 with its spectral state, as well as the e…
Insight-HXMT observations on thermonuclear X-ray bursts from 4U~1608--52 in the low/hard state: the energy-dependant hard X-ray deficit and cooling saturation of the corona
Y. P. Chen, S. Zhang, L. Ji +9
During thermonuclear bursts, it is suspected that {\bf the cooling of the corona by the burst emission} may be the cause of hard X-ray {\bf deficits}. Although this {\bf deficit} h…
