A powerful e^{+-} outflow driven by a proto-strange quark star

Shao-Ze Li, Yun-Wei Yu, He Gao +2

An electron-positron layer can cover the surface of a bare strange star (SS), the electric field in which can excite the vacuum and drive a pair wind by taking away the heat of the…

Kilonova and Optical Afterglow from Binary Neutron Star Mergers. II. Optimal Search Strategy for Serendipitous Observations and Target-of-opportunity Observations of Gravitational-wave Triggers

Jin-Ping Zhu, Shichao Wu, Yuan-Pei Yang +8

In the second work of this series, we explore the optimal search strategy for serendipitous and gravitational-wave-triggered target-of-opportunity (ToO) observations of kilonovae a…

Kilonova and Optical Afterglow from Binary Neutron Star Mergers. I. Luminosity Function and Color Evolution

Jin-Ping Zhu, Yuan-Pei Yang, Bing Zhang +2

In the first work of this series, we adopt a GW170817-like, viewing-angle-dependent kilonova model and the standard afterglow model with the lightcurve distribution based on the pr…

Does a long-lived remnant neutron star exist after short gamma-ray burst GRB 160821B?

Guang-Lei Wu, Yun-Wei Yu, Jin-Ping Zhu

Mergers of double neutron stars (DNSs) could lead to the formation of a long-lived massive remnant NS, which has been previously suggested to explain the AT 2017gfo kilonova emissi…

No Detectable Kilonova Counterpart is Expected for O3 Neutron Star-Black Hole Candidates

Jin-Ping Zhu, Shichao Wu, Yuan-Pei Yang +5

We analyse the tidal disruption probability of potential neutron star--black hole (NSBH) merger gravitational wave (GW) events, including GW190426_152155, GW190814, GW200105_162426…

Thermonuclear Explosions and Accretion-induced Collapses of White Dwarfs in Active Galactic Nucleus Accretion Disks

Jin-Ping Zhu, Yuan-Pei Yang, Bing Zhang +3

White dwarfs (WDs) embedded in gaseous disks of active galactic nucleus (AGNs) can rapidly accrete materials from the disks and grow in mass to reach or even exceed the Chandrasekh…
