Accurate distances of the Galactic spiral arms from dust-scattered X-ray emission of gamma-ray bursts
B. Vaia, I. Fornasiero, A. Tiengo +5
The details of the spiral structure of the Milky Way are still debated due to large uncertainties in the distance estimates obtained through the most common tracers. X-ray dust sca…
The Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (AXIS) Community Science Book
Michael Koss, Nafisa Aftab, Steven W. Allen +395
The AXIS Community Science Book represents the collective effort of 592 scientists worldwide to define the transformative science enabled by the Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (A…
Stellar flare detection in XMM-Newton with gradient boosted trees
Mario Pasquato, Martino Marelli, Andrea De Luca +5
The EXTraS project, based on data collected with the XMM-Newton observatory, provided us with a vast amount of light curves for X-ray sources. For each light curve, EXTraS also pro…
Probing the interstellar medium toward GRB 221009A through X-ray dust scattering
B. Vaia, Ž. Bošnjak, A. Bracco +5
The observation of 21 X-ray dust-scattering rings around the extraordinarily bright gamma-ray burst (GRB) 221009A provides a unique opportunity to study the interstellar medium (IS…
Long-term study of the 2020 magnetar-like outburst of the young pulsar PSRJ1846-0258 in Kes 75
Rajath Sathyaprakash, Nanda Rea, Francesco Coti Zelati +14
Magnetar-like activity has been observed in a large variety of neutron stars. PSR J1846-0258 is a young 327 ms radio-quiet pulsar with a large rotational power ($\sim 8 \times 10^{…
