Gravitational lensing of the wormhole in the Eddington-inspired Born-Infeld spacetime with a cosmic string
Xin-Fei Li, Lei-Hua Liu, Yan-Zhi Meng +2
In this work we study gravitational lensing of the wormhole in the Eddington-inspired Born-Infeld (EiBI) spacetime that incorporates with a cosmic string. It was found that the pre…

Is gamma-ray burst polarization from photosphere emission?
Yan-Zhi Meng, Shu-Qing Zhong, Jia-Hong Gu +2
Context: Despite more than half a century of research, the dominant radiation mechanism of gamma-ray burst (GRB) prompt emission remains unsolved. Some progress has been made throu…

Observed Steep and Shallow Spectra, Narrow and Broadband Spectra, Multi-frequency Simultaneous Spectra, and Statistical Fringe Spectra in Fast Radio Bursts: Various Faces of Intrinsic Quasi-periodic Spectra?
Shu-Qing Zhong, Wen-Jin Xie, Jia-Hong Gu
In this paper, through analysis, modelings, and simulations, we show that if the spectra of fast radio bursts (FRBs) are intrinsically quasi-periodic spectra, likely produced by co…
