In this paper we present the current status of the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry mission, which has been fully approved for launch in 2030. eXTP is a space science mission…
The day-long, repeating GRB 250702BDE / EP250702a: A unique extragalactic transient
Andrew J. Levan, Antonio Martin-Carrillo, Tanmoy Laskar +42
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are singular outbursts of high-energy radiation with durations typically lasting from milliseconds to minutes and, in extreme cases, a few hours. They are a…
Supermassive black holes and their surroundings: MeV signatures
Tullia Sbarrato, Marco Ajello, Sara Buson +5
The gravitational potential of supermassive black holes is so powerful that it triggers some of the most intense phenomena in the Universe. Accretion onto these objects and relativ…
Swift-BAT GUANO follow-up of gravitational-wave triggers in the third LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observing run
Gayathri Raman, Samuele Ronchini, James Delaunay +1819
We present results from a search for X-ray/gamma-ray counterparts of gravitational-wave (GW) candidates from the third observing run (O3) of the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) network usin…
