Rapid Dark Growth of Seed Black Holes in Self-Interacting Dark Matter

Yu Rong, Shuang-Nan Zhang, Jian-Min Wang +1

The rapid emergence of massive black holes in the early Universe, possibly related to Little Red Dots, challenges conventional growth from light seeds. Dark-matter accretion offers…

Little Red Dots as a Transient Phase of Self-Interacting Dark Matter Assisted Black Hole Growth

Yu Rong, Shuang-Nan Zhang, Jian-Min Wang +2

The discovery of Little Red Dots (LRDs) with JWST has revealed a population of compact, red galaxies hosting rapidly growing black holes at early cosmic times. Their compact morpho…

The Origin of the Photospheric Emission of GRB 220426A

Xin-Ying Song, Shuang-Nan Zhang, Ming-Yu Ge +1

GRB 220426A is a bright gamma-ray burst (GRB) dominated by the photospheric emission. We perform several tests to speculate the origin of this photospheric emission. The dimensionl…

High energy Millihertz quasi-periodic oscillations in 1A 0535+262 with Insight-HXMT challenge current models

Ruican Ma, Lian Tao, Shuang-Nan Zhang +21

We studied the millihertz quasi-periodic oscillation (mHz QPO) in the 2020 outburst of the Be/X-ray binary 1A 0535+262 using Insight-HXMT data over a broad energy band. The mHz QPO…

The prolific thermonuclear X-ray bursts from the outburst of the newly discovered millisecond pulsar MAXI~J1816--195 observed by Insight-HXMT and NICER

Yu-Peng Chen, Shu Zhang, Long Ji +10

MAXI J1816-195 is a newly discovered accreting millisecond pulsar with prolific thermonuclear bursts, detected during its outburst in 2022 June by Insight-HXMT and NICER. During th…
