Identifying the principal mechanism of star formation feedback

Chong Li, Rouyu Li, Keping Qiu +27

Feedback from massive stars regulates the formation of next-generation stars and planets and thus shapes the evolution of galaxies, yet observational evidence capable of determinin…

Possible evidence for extended X-ray emission surrounding PSR B0656+14 with eROSITA

Shu Niu, Qiang Yuan, Shui-Nai Zhang +3

Extended very-high-energy -ray emission from middle-aged pulsars as revealed recently by several groundbased -ray experiments has strong implication on the transport of high-…

The X-ray variation of M81* resolved by Chandra and NuSTAR

S. Niu, F. G. Xie, Q. D. Wang +3

Despite advances in our understanding of low luminosity active galactic nuclei (LLAGNs), the fundamental details about the mechanisms of radiation and flare/outburst in hot accreti…

Revealing a peculiar supernova remnant G106.3+2.7 as a petaelectronvolt proton accelerator with X-ray observations

Chong Ge, Ruo-Yu Liu, Shu Niu +2

Supernova remnants (SNRs) have long been considered as one of the most promising sources of Galactic cosmic rays. In the SNR paradigm, petaelectronvolt (PeV) proton acceleration ma…

Joint Fit of Warm Absorbers in COS & HETG Spectra of NGC 3783

Xiao-Dan Fu, Shui-Nai Zhang, Wei Sun +2

Warm Absorbers (WAs), as an important form of AGN outflows, show absorption in both UV and X-ray band. Using XSTAR generated photoionization models, for the first time we present a…

Disc-corona interaction in the heartbeat state of GRS 1915+105

Shu-Ping Yan, Li Ji, Si-Ming Liu +10

Timing analysis provides information about the dynamics of matter accreting on to neutron stars and black holes, and hence is crucial for studying the physics of the accretion flow…

The clumpy absorber in the high-mass X-ray binary Vela X-1

V. Grinberg, N. Hell, I. El Mellah +13

Bright and eclipsing, the high-mass X-ray binary Vela X-1 offers a unique opportunity to study accretion onto a neutron star from clumpy winds of O/B stars and to disentangle the c…

A timing view of the heartbeat state of GRS 1915+105

Shu-Ping Yan, Li Ji, Mariano Méndez +10

We present a timing analysis of two Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer observations of the microquasar GRS 1915+105 during the heartbeat state. The phase-frequency-power maps show that th…
