Abhay Kumar, Giovanni Lombardi, Riccardo Campana +45
The CUbesat Solar Polarimeter (CUSP) project aims to measure the linear polarization of solar flares in the 25 - 100 keV hard X-ray band using a Compton scattering polarimeter. CUS…
Why the Northern Hemisphere Needs a 30-40 m Telescope and the Science at Stake: Resolved Stellar Populations Studies in M31 and its Satellites
C. Gallart, E. Fernández-Alvar, A. B. A. Queiroz +48
A 30 m class optical/near-IR telescope in the Northern Hemisphere, equipped for diffraction-limited imaging and high-resolution, multi-object spectroscopy of faint stars, would ena…
A candidate to the long sought optical counterpart to the Rapid Burster in the bulge fossil fragment Liller 1
Cristina Pallanca, Francesco R. Ferraro, Barbara Lanzoni +6
We report on the possible identification of the optical counterpart of the Rapid Burster MXB 1730-335 in the stellar system Liller 1. The identification was performed by taking adv…
Detection of RS Oph with LST-1 and modelling of its HE/VHE gamma-ray emission
CTA-LST Project, :, K. Abe +316
The recurrent nova RS Ophiuchi (RS Oph) underwent a thermonuclear eruption in August 2021. In this event, RS Oph was detected by the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.), the…
