GECAM Discovery of Peculiar Oscillating Particle Precipitation Events

Chenwei Wang, Shaolin Xiong, Yi Zhao +52

Charged particle precipitation typically manifests as a gradual increase and decrease of flux observed by space detectors. Cases with rapidly flux variation are very rare. Periodic…

An Insight-HXMT view of the mHz quasi-regular modulation phenomenon in the black hole X-ray binary 4U 1630-47

Zi-Xu Yang, Liang Zhang, Yue Huang +97

Here we report the spectral-timing results of the black hole X-ray binary 4U 1630-47 during its 2021 outburst using observations from the Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope. Type-C qu…

Quasi-periodic oscillations of the X-ray burst from the magnetar SGR J1935+2154 and associated with the fast radio burst FRB 200428

Xiaobo Li, Mingyu Ge, Lin Lin +92

The origin(s) and mechanism(s) of fast radio bursts (FRBs), which are short radio pulses from cosmological distances, have remained a major puzzle since their discovery. We report…

In-orbit timing calibration of the Insight-Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope

Youli Tuo, Xiaobo Li, Mingyu Ge +24

We describe the timing system and the timing calibration results of the three payloads on-board the Insight-Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope (Insight-HXMT). These three payloads are…

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…
