An Enhanced Formation Channel for Galactic Dual-Line Gravitational-Wave Sources: von Zeipel-Lidov-Kozai Effect in Triples Involving Sgr A*
Wen-Fan Feng, Tan Liu, Yun Fang +3
The dense Galactic Center environment is expected to host compact binary inspirals detectable by future space-borne gravitational wave (GW) observatories (e.g., LISA, TianQin, Taij…
An agentic framework for gravitational-wave counterpart association in the multi-messenger era
Yiming Dong, Yacheng Kang, Junjie Zhao +3
With the detection of gravitational waves (GWs), multi-messenger astronomy has opened a new window for advancing our understanding of astrophysics, dense matter, gravitation, and c…
Thermal Deformations in Super-Eddington Magnetized Neutron Stars: Implications for Continuous Gravitational-Wave Detectability
Hong-Bo Li, Yacheng Kang, Ren-Xin Xu
Rapidly rotating neutron stars (NSs) are promising targets for continuous gravitational-wave (CGW) searches with current and next-generation ground-based GW detectors. In this work…
Novae breves from magnetar giant flares: Potential probes of neutron star crusts
Jiahang Zhong, Qiu-Hong Chen, Yacheng Kang +4
Matter ejected from the magnetar crust during giant flares (GFs) may undergo -process nucleosynthesis, producing short-lived optical transients termed "novae breves". Although i…
Lightcurve Features of Magnetar-Powered Superluminous Supernovae with Gravitational-Wave Emission and High-Energy Leakage
Jinghao Zhang, Yacheng Kang, Jiahang Zhong +4
Superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) are a distinct class of stellar explosions, exhibiting peak luminosities 10-100 times brighter than those of normal SNe. Their extreme luminosities…
Mini-supernovae from white dwarf-neutron star mergers: Viewing-angle-dependent spectra and lightcurves
Yacheng Kang, Jin-Ping Zhu, Lijing Shao +3
Unstable mass transfer may occur during white dwarf-neutron star (WD-NS) mergers, in which the WD can be tidally disrupted and form an accretion disk around the NS. Such an accreti…
