A gravitational wave detectable candidate Type Ia supernova progenitor

Emma T. Chickles, Kevin B. Burdge, Joheen Chakraborty +37

Type Ia supernovae, critical for studying cosmic expansion, arise from thermonuclear explosions of white dwarfs, but their precise progenitor pathways remain unclear. Growing evide…

X-ray polarization of the magnetar 1E 1841-045

Rachael Stewart, George A. Younes, Alice K. Harding +15

We report on IXPE and NuSTAR observations beginning forty days after the 2024 outburst onset of magnetar 1E 1841-045, marking the first IXPE observation of a magnetar in an enhance…

Tentative Blazar Candidate EP240709A Associated with 4FGL J0031.5-5648: NICER and Archival Multiwavelength Observations

Mason Ng, Jeremy Hare, Gaurava K. Jaisawal +3

We report on follow-up observations of the recently discovered transient by the Einstein Probe, EP240709A, with the Neutron star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER). We also inco…

X-ray and Radio Campaign of the Z-source GX 340+0 II: the X-ray polarization in the normal branch

Yash Bhargava, Thomas D. Russell, Mason Ng +11

We present the first X-ray polarization measurement of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary and Z-source, GX 3400, in the normal branch (NB) using a 200 ks observation with th…

Sharp Periodic Flares and Long-Term Variability in the High-Mass X-ray Binary XTE J1829-098 from RXTE PCA, Swift BAT and MAXI Observations

Robin H. D. Corbet, Ralf Ballhausen, Peter A. Becker +20

XTE J1829-098 is a transient X-ray pulsar with a period of ~7.8 s. It is a candidate Be star system, although the evidence for this is not yet definitive. We investigated the twent…

Characterization of a peculiar Einstein Probe transient EP240408a: an exotic gamma-ray burst or an abnormal jetted tidal disruption event?

B. O'Connor, D. Pasham, I. Andreoni +30

We present the results of our multi-wavelength (X-ray to radio) follow-up campaign of the Einstein Probe transient EP240408a. The initial 10 s trigger displayed bright soft X-ray (…
