Michael Koss, Nafisa Aftab, Steven W. Allen +395
The AXIS Community Science Book represents the collective effort of 592 scientists worldwide to define the transformative science enabled by the Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (A…
GRBs and Relativistic Transients in the 2040s
Nikhil Sarin, Andrew Levan, Nial Tanvir +9
Relativistic transients such as gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), jetted tidal disruption events, luminous fast blue optical transients, and fast X-ray transients, represent the brightest e…
Multi-messenger and time-domain astronomy in the 2040s
Samaya Nissanke, Nikhil Sarin, Chris Copperwheat +31
Multi-messenger astronomy will be transformed in the 2040s by an unprecedented volume of detections from next-generation gravitational wave, high-energy, and ultra-high energy neut…
Prompt Periodicity in the GRB 211211A Precursor: Black-hole or magnetar engine?
Gavin P. Lamb, Thomas Baxter, Conor M. B. Omand +18
The merger origin long GRB 211211A was a class (re-)defining event. A precursor was identified with a s separation from the main burst, as well as a claimed candidate quas…
Multi-messenger Gravitational Lensing
Graham P. Smith, Tessa Baker, Simon Birrer +38
We introduce the rapidly emerging field of multi-messenger gravitational lensing - the discovery and science of gravitationally lensed phenomena in the distant universe through the…
