Cosmic ray-modified shocks: appearance of an isothermal jump
Maxim Lyutikov
We point out that for sufficiently strong shocks, with Mach number (), the solutions for cosmic ray-modified shocks experiences a…
Magnetar-like X-ray bursts suppress pulsar radio emission
R. F. Archibald, M. Burgay, M. Lyutikov +9
Rotation-powered pulsars and magnetars are two different observational manifestations of neutron stars: rotation powered pulsars are rapidly spinning objects that are mostly observ…
GRB170817A associated with GW170817: multifrequency observations and modeling of prompt gamma-ray emission
Alexei Pozanenko, Maxim V. Barkov, Pavel Yu. Minaev +7
We present our observations of electromagnetic transients associated with GW170817/GRB 170817A using optical telescopes of Chilescope observatory and Big Scanning Antenna (BSA) of…
The THESEUS space mission concept: science case, design and expected performances
L. Amati, P. O'Brien, D. Goetz +208
THESEUS is a space mission concept aimed at exploiting Gamma-Ray Bursts for investigating the early Universe and at providing a substantial advancement of multi-messenger and time-…
Cooling waves in pair plasma
Maxim Lyutikov
We consider structure and emission properties of a pair plasma fireball that cools due to radiation. At temperatures the cooling takes a form of clearly define…
Short Gamma-Ray Bursts following mergers of an ONeMg with a CO white dwarf
Maxim Lyutikov, Silvia Toonen
We discuss a scenario of short Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) following a merger of a massive ONeMg white dwarf (WD) with a CO WD, and an ensuing accretion induced collapse (AIC). An init…
