GUEST: Gravitational Universe Exploration with Satellite Tracking. A passive satellite laser-ranging mission for the dark gravitational Universe
Diego Blas, Aurélien Hees, F. Javier Atapuerca +78
GUEST is a space mission concept whose central objective is the detection of gravitational waves (GWs) in the microhertz band -- a physics-rich frequency window that no other prese…
A persistent bow shock in a diskless magnetised accreting white dwarf
Krystian Ilkiewicz, Simone Scaringi, Domitilla de Martino +9
Stellar bow shocks are formed when an outflow interacts with the interstellar medium. In white dwarfs accreting from a binary companion, outflows are associated with either strong…
Multi-messenger and time-domain astronomy in the 2040s
Samaya Nissanke, Nikhil Sarin, Chris Copperwheat +31
Multi-messenger astronomy will be transformed in the 2040s by an unprecedented volume of detections from next-generation gravitational wave, high-energy, and ultra-high energy neut…
How Mass Flows Through Accretion Discs: A Spectral-Timing Vision for the 2040s
Simone Scaringi, Domitilla de Martino, Anna F. Pala +17
Understanding how mass and angular momentum flow through accretion discs remains a fundamental unsolved problem in astrophysics. Accreting white dwarfs offer an ideal laboratory fo…
Dense Matter in Neutron Stars with eXTP
Ang Li, Anna L. Watts, Guobao Zhang +82
In this White Paper, we present the potential of the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry (eXTP) mission to constrain the equation of state of dense matter in neutron stars, explo…
The Science of the Einstein Telescope
Adrian Abac, Raul Abramo, Simone Albanesi +485
Einstein Telescope (ET) is the European project for a gravitational-wave (GW) observatory of third-generation. In this paper we present a comprehensive discussion of its science ob…
The first continuous optical monitoring of the transitional millisecond pulsar PSR J1023+0038 with Kepler
A. Papitto, N. Rea, F. Coti Zelati +10
We report on the first continuous, 80 day optical monitoring of the transitional millisecond pulsar PSR J1023+0038 carried out in mid-2017 with Kepler in the K2 configuration, when…
Multi-band study of RX J0838-2827 and XMM J083850.4-282759: a new asynchronous magnetic cataclysmic variable and a candidate transitional millisecond pulsar
N. Rea, F. Coti Zelati, P. Esposito +23
In search for the counterpart to the Fermi-LAT source 3FGL J0838.8-2829, we performed a multi-wavelength campaign, in the X-ray band with Swift and XMM-Newton, performed infrared,…
Observations of VHE gamma-ray binaries with the MAGIC Telescopes
A. López-Oramas, O. Blanch Bigas, J. Cortina +10
Several binary systems, composed of a star and a compact object, have been detected in the GeV-TeV range. Several systems have been observed but only a handful of sources have show…
The missing GeV γ-ray binary: Searching for HESS J0632+057 with Fermi-LAT
G. A. Caliandro, A. B. Hill, D. F. Torres +13
The very high energy (VHE; >100 GeV) source HESS J0632+057 has been recently confirmed as a γ-ray binary, a subclass of the high mass X-ray binary (HMXB) population, through the de…
Associating long-term gamma-ray variability with the superorbital period of LS I 61 303
LAT Collaboration
Gamma-ray binaries are stellar systems for which the spectral energy distribution (discounting the thermal stellar emission) peaks at high energies. Detected from radio to TeV gamm…
The return of the bursts: Thermonuclear flashes from Circinus X-1
M. Linares, A. Watts, D. Altamirano +14
We report the detection of 15 X-ray bursts with RXTE and Swift observations of the peculiar X-ray binary Circinus X-1 during its May 2010 X-ray re-brightening. These are the first…
Discovery of an accreting millisecond pulsar in the eclipsing binary system Swift J1749.4-2807
D. Altamirano, Y. Cavecchi, A. Patruno +12
We report on the discovery and the timing analysis of the first eclipsing accretion-powered millisecond X-ray pulsar (AMXP): SWIFT J1749.4-2807. The neutron star rotates at a frequ…
Fermi Large Area Telescope First Source Catalog
LAT Collaboration
We present a catalog of high-energy gamma-ray sources detected by the Large Area Telescope (LAT), the primary science instrument on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (Fermi), dur…
The Observed Spin Distributions of Millisecond Radio and X-ray Pulsars
J. W. T. Hessels
We consider the currently observed spin distributions of various types of neutron stars, including isolated and binary radio millisecond pulsars in the Galactic plane and globular…
A New Class of Radio Pulsars - Back in 1982
M. Ali Alpar
Basic ideas about the torques on the neutron star and the existence of an equilibrium rotation period followed from the recognition that most X-ray binaries contain accretion power…
Three-dimensional Simulations of Accretion to Stars with Complex Magnetic Fields
M. Long, M. M. Romanova, R. V. E. Lovelace
Disk accretion to rotating stars with complex magnetic fields is investigated using full three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations. The studied magnetic configuration…
