Quasi-periodic oscillations of the X-ray burst from the magnetar SGR J1935+2154 and associated with the fast radio burst FRB 200428

Xiaobo Li, Mingyu Ge, Lin Lin +92

The origin(s) and mechanism(s) of fast radio bursts (FRBs), which are short radio pulses from cosmological distances, have remained a major puzzle since their discovery. We report…

Insight-HXMT observations of jet-like corona in a black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1820+070

Bei You, Yuoli Tuo, Chengzhe Li +123

A black hole X-ray binary produces hard X-ray radiation from its corona and disk when the accreting matter heats up. During an outburst, the disk and corona co-evolves with each ot…

Detailed polarization measurements of the prompt emission of five Gamma-Ray Bursts

Shuang-Nan Zhang, Merlin Kole, Tian-Wei Bao +37

Gamma-ray bursts are the strongest explosions in the Universe since the Big Bang, believed to be produced either in forming black holes at the end of massive star evolution or merg…

Insight-HXMT observations of the first binary neutron star merger GW170817

TiPei Li, ShaoLin Xiong, ShuangNan Zhang +107

Finding the electromagnetic (EM) counterpart of binary compact star merger, especially the binary neutron star (BNS) merger, is critically important for gravitational wave (GW) ast…
