Radiation hydrodynamic simulations for the origin of quasi-periodic oscillations for accretion onto supermassive black holes
Yiyang Lin, Erlin Qiao, Jifeng Liu +2
Quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) has been detected in several accreting supermassive black hole (SMBH) systems, including active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and tidal disruption events…
IGR J17091-3624: Newly Formed Periodic Dips and Multiwavelength Activity During the 2025 Outburst
Zikun Lin, Yanan Wang, Shuyuan Wei +15
The black hole low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) candidate IGR J17091-3624 experienced a hard-state-only outburst in 2025. In this paper, we show that IXPE detected a series of intermit…
Tides in Massive Binaries: Numerical Solutions and Semi-Analytical Comparisons
Meng Sun, Hongbo Xia, Seth Gossage +5
We present a systematic comparison between the tidal secular evolution timescales predicted by the direct numerical method and those given by the commonly used semi-analytic prescr…
SN 2025coe: A Multiple-Peaked Calcium-Strong Transient from A White-Dwarf Progenitor
Chun Chen, Ning-Chen Sun, Qiang Xi +25
SN 2025coe is a calcium-strong transient located at an extremely large projected offset 39.3 kpc from the center of its host, the nearby early-type galaxy NGC 3277 at a dista…
Delayed Launch of Ultrafast Outflows in the Tidal Disruption Event AT2020afhd
Zikun Lin, Yanan Wang, De-Fu Bu +2
We report the detection and characterization of ultrafast outflows (UFOs) in the X-ray spectra of the tidal disruption event (TDE) AT2020afhd, based on observations from NICER, Swi…
