We examine a systematic comparison of jet-knots, hotspots and radio lobes recently observed with Chandra and ASCA. This report will discuss the origin of their X-ray emissions and investigate the dynamics of the jets. The data was compiled…

A relativistic electron-positron ($e^{+}e^{-}$) pair wind from a rapidly rotating, strongly magnetized neutron star (NS) would interact with a gamma-ray burst (GRB) external shock and reshapes afterglow emission signatures. Assuming that…

Using a simple off-axis jet model of GRBs, we can reproduce the observed unusual properties of the prompt emission of GRB980425, such as the extremely low isotropic equivalent gamma-ray energy, the low peak energy, the high fluence ratio,…

We present results on the X-ray and optical/UV emission from the type IIP SN 2006bp and the interaction of the SN shock with its environment, obtained with the X-Ray Telescope (XRT) and UV/Optical Telescope (UVOT) on-board the Swift…

We use published data in radio, optical and X-ray bands to analyze and model afterglows of GW/GRB 170817A. Our analysis is based on a phenomenological gamma-ray burst generator model which we previously used to study the prompt gamma-ray…

Emission from the relativistic jet located at hundreds of kpc from the core of the superluminal quasar PKS 0637-752 was detected at 3.6 and 5.8 microns with the Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) on the Spitzer Space Telescope. The unprecedented…

Deep X-ray observations of the post-explosion environment around the very nearby Type Ia SN\,2014J (Dl=3.5 Mpc) reveal no X-ray emission down to a luminosity L<7x10^{36} erg/s (0.3-10 keV) at t~20 days after the explosion. We interpret this…
