Insight-HXMT observations of Swift J0243.6+6124: the evolution of RMS pulse fractions at super-Eddington luminosity
P. J. Wang, L. D. Kong, S. Zhang +116
Based on Insight-HXMT data, we report on the pulse fraction evolution during the 2017-2018 outburst of the newly discovered first Galactic ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) Swift J0…
Giant X-ray and optical Bump in GRBs: evidence for fall-back accretion model
Litao Zhao, He Gao, WeiHua Lei +2
The successful operation of dedicated detectors has brought us valuable information for understanding the central engine and the progenitor of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). For instance…
Neutron Star Mergers in AGN Accretion Disks: Cocoon and Ejecta Shock Breakouts
Jin-Ping Zhu, Bing Zhang, Yun-Wei Yu +1
Neutron star mergers are believed to occur in accretion disks around supermassive black holes. Here we show that a putative jet launched from the merger of a binary neutron star (B…
The evolution of a newborn millisecond magnetar with a propeller-recycling disk
Shao-Ze Li, Yun-Wei Yu, He Gao +1
A rapidly rotating and highly magnetized neutron star (NS) could be formed from the explosive phenomena such as superluminous supernovae and gamma-ray bursts. This newborn NS can s…
Kilonova Emission From Black Hole-Neutron Star Mergers. II. Luminosity Function and Implications for Target-of-opportunity Observations of Gravitational-wave Triggers and Blind Searches
Jin-Ping Zhu, Shichao Wu, Yuan-Pei Yang +8
We present detailed simulations of black hole-neutron star (BH-NS) mergers kilonova and gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglow and kilonova luminosity function, and discuss the detectabil…
Lorentz Invariance Violation Limits from the Spectral Lag Transition of GRB~190114C
Shen-Shi Du, Lin Lan, Jun-Jie Wei +8
The spectral lags of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been viewed as the most promising probes of the possible violations of Lorentz invariance (LIV). However, these constraints usuall…
Timing analysis of the black hole candidate EXO 1846-031 with Insight-HXMT monitoring
He-Xin Liu, Yue Huang, Guang-Cheng Xiao +118
We present the observational results from a detailed timing analysis of the black hole candidate EXO 1846-031 during its outburst in 2019 with the observations of Insight-HXMT, NIC…
A Reader Friendly Formalism for Circumstellar Material-Supernova Ejecta Interaction Model
Liang-Duan Liu, Ling-Jun Wang, He Gao
The interaction of a SN ejecta with a pre-existing circumstellar material (CSM) is one of the most promising energy sources for a variety of optical transients. Recently, a semi-an…
Discovery of oscillations above 200 keV in a black hole X-ray binary with Insight-HXMT
Xiang Ma, Lian Tao, Shuang-Nan Zhang +119
Low-frequency quasi-periodic oscillations (LFQPOs) are commonly found in black hole X-ray binaries, and their origin is still under debate. The properties of LFQPOs at high energie…
Special supernova signature from BH-NS/BH progenitor systems
He Gao, Liang-Duan Liu, Wei-Hua Lei +1
The gravitational-wave detection by the LIGO-Virgo scientific collaboration shows that the black hole and neutron star (BH-NS) or BH-BH systems with a BH mass of tens of solar mass…
On the true fractions of repeating and non-repeating FRB sources
Shunke Ai, He Gao, Bing Zhang
Observationally, fast radio bursts (FRBs) can be divided into repeating and apparently non-repeating (one-off) ones. It is unclear whether all FRBs repeat and whether there are gen…
Cosmological parameter estimation for dynamical dark energy models with future fast radio burst observations
Ze-Wei Zhao, Zheng-Xiang Li, Jing-Zhao Qi +3
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are a mysterious astrophysical phenomenon of bright pulses emitted at radio frequencies, and they are expected to be frequently detected in the future. The…
The Second Plateau in X-ray Afterglow Providing Additional Evidence for Rapidly Spinning Magnetars as the GRB Central Engine
Litao Zhao, Liangduan Liu, He Gao +3
Evidence for the central engine of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) has been collected in the Neil Gehrels \emph{Swift} data. For instance, some GRBs show an internal X-ray plateau followed…
Cosmology-insensitive estimate of IGM baryon mass fraction from five localized fast radio bursts
Zhengxiang Li, He Gao, Jun-Jie Wei +3
Five fast radio bursts (FRBs), including three apparently non-repeating ones FRB 180924, FRB 181112, and FRB 190523, and two repeaters, FRB 121102 and FRB 180916.J0158+65, have alr…
Constraints on compact dark matter with fast radio burst observations
Kai Liao, S. -B. Zhang, Zhengxiang Li +1
Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are bright radio transients with millisecond duration at cosmological distances. Since compact dark matter/objects (COs) could act as lenses and cause spli…
Kilonova Emission From Black Hole-Neutron Star Mergers. I. Viewing-Angle-Dependent Lightcurves
Jin-Ping Zhu, Yuan-Pei Yang, Liang-Duan Liu +5
In this paper, we present a numerical method to study the predicted lightcurves as a function of viewing angle. We extrapolate the fitting formulae for the mass and velocity of tid…
Test the hypothesis of compact-binary-coalescence origin of fast radio bursts through a multi-messenger approach
Min-Hao Wang, Shun-Ke Ai, Zheng-Xiang Li +3
In the literature, compact binary coalescences (CBCs) have been proposed as one of the main scenarios to explain the origin of some non-repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs). The larg…
Constraining the long-lived magnetar remnants in short gamma-ray bursts from late-time radio observations
Liang-Duan Liu, He Gao, Bing Zhang
The joint detection of GW 170817 and GRB 170817A indicated that at least a fraction of short gamma ray bursts (SGRBs) originate from binary neutron star (BNS) mergers. One possible…
