Discovery of the black hole X-ray binary transient MAXIJ1348-630
Mayu Tominaga, Satoshi Nakahira, Megumi Shidatsu +8
We report the first half-year monitoring of the new Galactic black hole candidate MAXI J1348-630, discovered on 2019 January 26 with the Gas Slit Camera (GSC) on-board MAXI. During…
Observatory science with eXTP
Jean J. M. in 't Zand, Enrico Bozzo, Jinlu Qu +181
In this White Paper we present the potential of the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry (eXTP) mission for studies related to Observatory Science targets. These include flaring s…
Solar abundance ratios of the iron-peak elements in the Perseus Cluster
Hitomi Collaboration
The metal abundance of the hot plasma that permeates galaxy clusters represents the accumulation of heavy elements produced by billions of supernovae. Therefore, X-ray spectroscopy…
M31N 2008-12a - the remarkable recurrent nova in M31: Pan-chromatic observations of the 2015 eruption
M. J. Darnley, M. Henze, M. F. Bode +52
The Andromeda Galaxy recurrent nova M31N 2008-12a had been observed in eruption ten times, including yearly eruptions from 2008-2014. With a measured recurrence period of $P_\mathr…
On the Counter-jet Emission in GRB Afterglows
Xin Wang, Y. F. Huang
We investigate the dynamical evolution of double-sided jets and present detailed numerical studies on the emission from the receding jet of gamma-ray bursts. It is found that the r…
Proto-Magnetars as GRB Central Engines: Uncertainties, Limitations, and Particulars
Todd A. Thompson, Brian D. Metzger, Niccolò Bucciantini
The millisecond proto-magnetar model for the central engine of long-duration gamma-ray bursts is briefly reviewed. Limitations and uncertainties in the model are highlighted. A sho…
