The enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry mission - eXTP

ShuangNan Zhang, Andrea Santangelo, Marco Feroci +146

In this paper we present the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry mission - eXTP. eXTP is a space science mission designed to study fundamental physics under extreme conditions of…

GRB171205A/SN2017iuk: A local low-luminosity gamma-ray burst

V. D'Elia, S. Campana, A. D'Aì +19

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) occurring in the local Universe constitute an interesting sub-class of the GRB family, since their luminosity is on average lower than that of their cosmolo…

Compact radio emission indicates a structured jet was produced by a binary neutron star merger

G. Ghirlanda, O. S. Salafia, Z. Paragi +33

The binary neutron star merger event GW170817 was detected through both electromagnetic radiation and gravitational waves. Its afterglow emission may have been produced by either a…

The fraction of ionizing radiation from massive stars that escapes to the intergalactic medium

N. R. Tanvir, J. P. U. Fynbo, A. de Ugarte Postigo +38

The part played by stars in the ionization of the intergalactic medium remains an open question. A key issue is the proportion of the stellar ionizing radiation that escapes the ga…

The evolution of the X-ray afterglow emission of GW 170817 / GRB 170817A in XMM-Newton observations

P. D'Avanzo, S. Campana, O. S. Salafia +12

We report our observation of the short GRB 170817A, associated to the binary neutron star merger event GW 170817, perfomed in the X-ray band with XMM-Newton 135 d after the event (…
