An Accretion Flare Interpretation for the Ultra-High-Energy Neutrino Event KM3-230213A
Chengchao Yuan, Leonard Pfeiffer, Walter Winter +4
We study the origin of the ultra-high-energy (UHE) neutrino event KM3-230213A detected by KM3NeT, focusing on MRC 0614-083 which has been pinpointed as the closest blazar to the ne…
Ultra-High-Energy Cosmic Rays from Neutrino-Emitting Tidal Disruption Events
Pavlo Plotko, Walter Winter, Cecilia Lunardini +1
We revisit the Ultra-High-Energy Cosmic Ray (UHECRs) production in Tidal Disruption Events (TDEs) in the light of recent neutrino-TDE associations. We use an isotropically emitting…
Revisiting X-ray Afterglows of Jetted Tidal Disruption Events with the External Reverse Shock
Chengchao Yuan, Walter Winter, B. Theodore Zhang +2
We investigate the external reverse shock region of relativistic jets as the origin of X-ray afterglows of jetted tidal disruption events (TDEs) that exhibit luminous jets accompan…
Lepto-Hadronic Scenarios for TeV Extensions of Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglow Spectra
Marc Klinger, Chengchao Yuan, Andrew M. Taylor +1
Recent multi-wavelength observations of gamma-ray burst afterglows observed in the TeV energy range challenge the simplest Synchrotron Self-Compton (SSC) interpretation of this emi…
