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…

GRB 200415A: A Short Gamma-Ray Burst from a Magnetar Giant Flare?

Jun Yang, Vikas Chand, Bin-Bin Zhang +16

The giant flares of soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs) have long been proposed to contribute to at least a subsample of the observed short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). In this paper, we p…

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…
