Probing strange quark matter objects with future space-based gravitational wave detectors DECIGO and BBO
Abdusattar Kurban, Xia Zhou, Na Wang +9
The Strange Quark Matter (SQM) hypothesis posits that objects composed of SQM could exist across a wide mass range, from strange planets (SPs) to strange stars (SSs). It has been p…
Diverse Morphologies of GRB X-Ray Plateaus within a Common Magnetar Framework
Xiao-Fei Dong, Yong-Feng Huang, Nurimangul Nurmamat +7
The origin of the X-ray plateau phase in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) remains an open problem. In particular, it is unclear whether GRBs with different temporal morphologies (i.e., with…
A second-scale periodicity in an active repeating fast radio burst source
Chen Du, Yong-Feng Huang, Jin-Jun Geng +14
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are fierce radio flashes from the deep sky. Abundant observations have indicated that highly magnetized neutron stars might be involved in these energetic…
Gamma-Ray Bursts: Evidence for a Common Origin of X-ray Plateaus with Diverse Temporal Decay Index
Xiao-Fei Dong, Yong-Feng Huang, Chen Deng +8
A significant fraction of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) exhibit a plateau in the early X-ray afterglow light curve, whose mechanism remains uncertain. While the post-plateau normal decay…
Short-duration GRB 250221A Afterglow Driven by Two-Component Jets from the merger of a compact star
Xiao Tian, Hou-Jun Lü, Xiao-Xuan Liu +4
GRB 250221A is a short gamma-ray burst (GRB) at redshift , with a duration of 1.8 s and no extended emission in either Swift/Burst Alert Telescope or Konus-Wind bands. A r…
Decoding FRB energetics and frequency features hidden by observational incompleteness
Chen-Ran Hu, Yong-Feng Huang, Jin-Jun Geng +9
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration radio flashes of extragalactic origin, with magnetars implicated as viable central engines. Yet their triggering and radiation mec…
