Fast optical spectroscopic observations of PSR J1023+0038 over one orbital period

M. M. Messa, M. C. Baglio, P. D'Avanzo +8

Transitional millisecond pulsars (tMSPs) are neutron-star binaries that switch between rotation-powered and accretion-powered states, providing a key link between low-mass X-ray bi…

Failed jet breakout in the metal-poor broad-lined type Ic supernova 2026gzf

Antonio Martin-Carrillo, Christina C. Thöne, James K. Leung +103

A long-standing question in the death of massive stars is the role of relativistic jets. While many gamma-ray bursts and some fast X-ray transients seem to be associated with broad…

Probing a new subclass of llGRB-SN transients: Insights from EP250304a and its associated supernova

L. Cotter, A. Martin-Carrillo, R. A. J. Eyles-Ferris +62

With the advent of the Einstein Probe (EP) mission, we are entering a new era in the study of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), enabling the detection of faint, low-luminosity transients th…

The most distant optically polarised GRB afterglow: GRB 240419A at z = 5.178

R. Brivio, S. Covino, M. Ferro +31

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are extremely bright phenomena powered by relativistic jets arising from explosive events at cosmological distances. The nature of the jet and the configura…

An ultraviolet burst oscillation candidate from the low-mass X-ray binary EXO 0748-676

A. Miraval Zanon, F. Ambrosino, G. Illiano +15

X-ray burst oscillations are quasi-coherent periodic signals at frequencies close to the neutron star spin frequency. They are observed during thermonuclear Type I X-ray bursts fro…

A sample of ionised Fe line-emitting X-ray sources in the inner Galactic disc

Samaresh Mondal, Gabriele Ponti, Tong Bao +4

Previous studies suggest that the Galactic diffuse X-ray emission is composed of unresolved point sources, primarily mCVs. However, nearby mCVs have a much lower 6.7 keV line equiv…

A Multi-wavelength Characterization of the 2023 Outburst of MAXI J1807+132: Manifestations of Disk Instability and Jet Emission

Sandeep K. Rout, M. Cristina Baglio, Andrew Hughes +19

Several phenomenological aspects of low-luminosity neutron star transients, such as atolls, remain poorly understood. One such source, MAXI J1807+132, entered its latest outburst i…

Multi-band study of the flaring mode emission in the transitional millisecond pulsar PSR J1023+0038

M. C. Baglio, F. Coti Zelati, A. K. Hughes +17

We present a comprehensive study of the flaring mode of the transitional millisecond pulsar (tMSP) PSR J1023+0038 during its X-ray sub-luminous state, using strictly simultaneous X…

Disk reflection and energetics from the accreting millisecond pulsar SRGA J144459.2-604207

Christian Malacaria, Alessandro Papitto, Sergio Campana +11

Accreting millisecond pulsars (AMSPs) are excellent laboratories to study reflection spectra and their features from an accretion disk truncated by a rapidly rotating magnetosphere…

Polarized multiwavelength emission from pulsar wind - accretion disk interaction in a transitional millisecond pulsar

M. C. Baglio, F. Coti Zelati, A. Di Marco +17

Transitional millisecond pulsars (tMSPs) bridge the evolutionary gap between accreting neutron stars in low-mass X-ray binaries and millisecond radio pulsars. These systems exhibit…

Lack of emission lines in the optical spectra of SAX J1808.4-3658 during reflaring of the 2019 outburst

L. Asquini, M. C. Baglio, S. Campana +5

We present spectroscopy of the accreting X-ray binary and millisecond pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658. These observations are the first to be obtained during a reflaring phase. We collecte…
