The swept-back multipolar magnetic field of neutron stars: Application to NICER MSP J0030+0451
Anu Kundu, Constantinos Kalapotharakos, Zorawar Wadiasingh +5
NICER observations of millisecond pulsars (MSPs) suggest that non-dipolar magnetic fields are required to explain their surface X-ray hotspots. C. Kalapotharakos et al. (2021) mode…

A detailed dive into fitting strategies for GRB afterglows with contamination: A case study with kilonovae
Wendy F. Wallace, Nikhil Sarin
Observations of gamma-ray burst afterglows have begun to readily reveal contamination from a kilonova or a supernova. This contamination presents significant challenges towards tra…
