Flare Quasi-Periodic Pulsation Associated with Recurrent Jets

Dong Li, Fanpeng Shi, Haisheng Zhao +6

Quasi-periodic pulsations (QPPs), which carry time features and plasma characteristics of flare emissions, are frequently observed in light curves of solar/stellar flares. In this…

The removal method and generation mechanism of spikes in Insight-HXMT/HE telescope

Baiyang Wu, Yifei Zhang, Xiaobo Li +5

Spikes are some obvious sharp increases that appear on the raw light curves of High Energy X-ray telescope(HE) onboard Insight-HXMT, which could have influences on the data product…

Detection of flare multi-periodic pulsations in mid-ultraviolet Balmer continuum, Ly-alpha, hard X-ray, and radio emissions simultaneously

Dong Li, Mingyu Ge, Marie Dominique +7

Quasi-periodic pulsations (QPPs), which usually appear as temporal pulsations of the total flux, are frequently detected in the light curves of solar/stellar flares. In this study,…

Insight-HXMT observations of jet-like corona in a black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1820+070

Bei You, Yuoli Tuo, Chengzhe Li +123

A black hole X-ray binary produces hard X-ray radiation from its corona and disk when the accreting matter heats up. During an outburst, the disk and corona co-evolves with each ot…

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…
