An energetic dirty fireball detected in soft X-rays
C. -Y. Dai, J. Quirola-Vásquez, Y. -H. Wang +76
The collapse of massive stars drives explosions that power relativistic fireballs. If only a small amount of matter is entrained, such clean fireballs can expand with Lorentz facto…
SVOM discovery of a strong X-ray outburst of the blazar 1ES~1959+650 and multi-wavelength follow-up with the Neil Gehrels Swift observatory
A. Foisseau, A. Coleiro, S. Komossa +37
On December 6, 2024, 1ES 1959+650, one of the X-ray brightest blazars known, underwent a high-amplitude X-ray outburst detected by SVOM, the first such discovery with this mission.…
An extremely soft and weak fast X-ray transient associated with a luminous supernova
W. -X. Li, Z. -P. Zhu, X. -Z. Zou +101
Long gamma-ray bursts (LGRBs), including their subclasses of low-luminosity GRBs (LL-GRBs) and X-ray flashes (XRFs) characterized by low spectral peak energies, are known to be ass…
A precessing stellar disk model for superorbital modulations of the gamma-ray binary LS I+61 303
A. M. Chen, J. Takata, Y. W. Yu
Gamma-ray binary LS I+61 303 consists of a neutron star orbiting around a Be star with a period of . Apart from orbital modulations, the b…
Soft X-ray prompt emission from a high-redshift gamma-ray burst EP240315a
Y. Liu, H. Sun, D. Xu +191
Long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are believed to originate from core collapse of massive stars. High-redshift GRBs can probe the star formation and reionization history of the early un…
Radio Emission from Pulsar Wind Nebulae without Surrounding Supernova Ejecta: Application to FRB 121102
Z. G. Dai, J. S. Wang, Y. W. Yu
In this paper, we propose a new scenario in which a rapidly-rotating strongly-magnetized pulsar without any surrounding supernova ejecta produces fast radio bursts (FRBs) repeatedl…
The Most Luminous Supernova ASASSN-15lh: Signature of a Newborn Rapidly-Rotating Strange Quark Star
Z. G. Dai, S. Q. Wang, J. S. Wang +2
In this paper we show that the most luminous supernova discovered very recently, ASASSN-15lh, could have been powered by a newborn ultra-strongly-magnetized pulsar, which initially…
