Long thermonuclear burst driven thermal-viscous instability of accretion disk: triggering an outburst-like X-ray flare

Wenhui Yu, Zhaosheng Li, Yuanyue Pan +2

We report on NICER and MAXI observations of a long-duration thermonuclear X-ray burst and a subsequent outburst-like X-ray flare from the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary MAXI J0…

X-ray and radio observations of the AMXP MAXI J1957+032 covering the 2022-2025 outbursts

Zhaosheng Li, Lucien Kuiper, Yuanyue Pan +12

We presented a comprehensive multi-epoch timing and multiwavelength analysis of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar MAXI J1957+032, covering two major outbursts in 2022 and 2025…

A transition from mixed-fuel to pure-helium thermonuclear bursts in Terzan 5 X-3/Swift J174805.3-244637

Lei Zhang, Zhaosheng Li, Yuanyue Pan +5

We presented a detailed analysis of seven thermonuclear X-ray bursts from Terzan 5 X-3/Swift J174805.3-244637, detected by NICER during the source's 2023 outburst. Our analysis rev…

Emission and Absorption Lines in Photospheric Radius Expansion Bursts of 4U 182030

Wenhui Yu, Zhaosheng Li, Yuanyue Pan +4

We analyze the emission and absorption lines during photospheric radius expansion (PRE) X-ray bursts from the ultracompact binary 4U 1820--30, observed with the Neutron Star Interi…

Quenching and recovery of persistent X-ray emission during a superburst in 4U 182030

Zhijiao Peng, Zhaosheng Li, Yuanyue Pan +6

We report the superburst from 4U 1820--30 in 2021 observed by the Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image and Neutron star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER). During the tail of the supe…
