Predictions for Short Gamma-Ray Burst Detections by COSI

Eliza Neights, Eric Burns, Nicolò Parmiggiani +21

The Compton Spectrometer and Imager (COSI) is a soft gamma-ray telescope scheduled to launch in 2027. COSI will trigger onboard the spacecraft in response to short-duration transie…

Spinning Between Models: Continuum and Reflection Constraints in the Intermediate States of GRS 1716-249 and GRS 1739-278

Tiffany Tausch, Paul A. Draghis, Erin Kara +7

Measurements of stellar-mass black hole spin probe accretion under strong gravity and constrain black hole formation and evolution. Intermediate states, in which thermal disk, coro…

Detectability of Polarized Gamma-ray Emission from Blazar Flares with COSI

Garrett A. Latiolais, Jorge Otero-Santos, Michela Negro +18

We investigate the detectability of polarized gamma-ray emission from blazar flares with the Compton Spectrometer and Imager (COSI). Using 17 years of Fermi Large Area Telescope ob…

A multiwavelength study of the Galactic center black hole candidate MAXI J1744-294

Shifra Mandel, Kaya Mori, Paul A. Draghis +37

For the first time in nearly a decade, a bright transient was detected in the central parsec (pc) of the Galaxy. MAXI J1744-294, or -- as it was known in its previous life -- Swift…

Investigating MAXI J1752-457 with NuSTAR in the aftermath of a superburst

Sean N. Pike, Hitoshi Negoro, Douglas Buisson +5

We present two NuSTAR observations of the X-ray transient, MAXI J1752-457, following a superburst which was observed by MAXI/GSC in November, 2024. NuSTAR follow-up confirmed that…
