Fiber bursts are a type of fine structure that is often superposed on type IV radio continuum emission during solar flares. Although studied for many decades, its physical exciter, emission mechanism, and association with the flare energy…
We observed the Rapid Burster with Chandra when it was in the 'banana' state that usually precedes the type-II X-ray bursting 'island' state for which the source is particularly known. We employed the High-Energy Transmission Grating…
We present results of our analysis of a set of RXTE/PCA observations of X-ray flares/bursts with burst cycle ranging from 30 to 1300 s from the Galactic X-ray transient source GRS 1915+105 during last four years. These flares/bursts can be…
Two classes of gamma-ray bursts have been identified so far, characterized by durations shorter and longer than approximately 2 seconds. In 1998 two independent papers indicated the existence of the third class of the bursts roughly…
Two flares with a duration of several hours are reported for the low-mass X-ray binary 4U 1636-53. The characteristics of these flares (i.e., decay time scales, spectral softening, fluences) are very similar to the very long type-I X-ray…
The `radio sky' is relatively unexplored for transient signals, although the potential of radio-transient searches is high, as demonstrated recently by the discovery of a previously unknown type of source which varies on timescales of…
Type III radio bursts are not only the most intense but also the most frequently observed solar radio bursts. However, a number of their defining features remain poorly understood. Observational limitations, such as a lack of sufficient…
Non-thermal electrons accelerated in the solar corona can produce intense coherent radio emission, known as solar type III radio bursts. This intense radio emission is often observed from hundreds of MHz in the corona down to the tens of…
Energetic electrons accelerated by solar flares often give rise to type III radio bursts at a broad waveband and even interplanetary type III bursts (IT3) if the wavelength extends to decameter-kilometer. In this Letter, we investigate the…
There is a wide consensus that the ubiquitous presence of magnetic reconnection events and the associated impulsive heating (nanoflares) is a strong candidate for solving the solar coronal heating problem. Whether nanoflares accelerate…
Observations of Type I X-ray bursts have long been taken as evidence that the sources are neutron stars. Black body models approximate the spectral data and imply a suddenly heated neutron star cooling over characteristic times of seconds…
On 2025 January 10, a thermonuclear (Type I) X-ray burst from the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary \textit{4U~0614+091} was detected with the ECLAIRs instrument on board the \textit{SVOM} mission. We present here a time-resolved…
The repeating fast radio burst (FRB) source FRB 20200120E is exceptional because of its proximity and association with a globular cluster. Here we report $60$ bursts detected with the Effelsberg telescope at 1.4 GHz. We observe large…
Type II bursts are thought to arise from instabilities in the accretion flow onto a neutron star in an X-ray binary. Despite having been known for almost 40 years, no model can yet satisfactorily account for all their properties. To shed…
The characteristics of the type II bursts with herringbone structure observed both by ground based radio telescopes (UTR-2, URAN-2) and spaceborn spectrometers (STEREO A-B) are discussed. The burst was recorded on 7 June, 2011 in the…
An unusual solar burst was observed simultaneously by two decameter radio telescopes UTR-2 (Kharkov, Ukraine) and URAN-2 (Poltava, Ukraine) on 3 June 2011 in the frequency range 16-28 MHz. The observed radio burst has some unusual…
Drift pairs are an unusual type of fine structure sometimes observed in dynamic spectra of solar radio emission. They appear as two identical short narrowband drifting stripes separated in time; both positive and negative frequency drifts…
Narrow band bursts appear on dynamic spectra from microwave to decametric frequencies as fine structures with very small duration and bandwidth. They are thought to mark small scale magnetic reconnection. We analyzed 27 metric type-IV…
I found one long X-ray flare from the X-ray burster GX 3+1 in almost 6 years of observations with the RXTE All Sky Monitor (ASM). The event had a peak flux of about 1.1 Crab (1.5-12 keV), lasted between 4.4 and 16.2 hours and exhibited a…
Type III radio bursts are a signature of the flux of near-relativistic electrons ejected during solar flares. These bursts are frequently observed by spacecraft such as the Parker Solar Probe. It is traditionally believed that these…
