Quasi-Periodic Eruptions (QPEs) display correlated long/short and strong/weak patterns that remain unexplained by existing flat-disk collision models. We propose that these features arise from an extreme-mass-ratio inspiral (EMRI) colliding…
Asteroid-neutron star collision models have been proposed as possible sources of high-energy transients, such as gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and fast radio bursts (FRBs). The sequence of events following the impact of the asteroid and finally…
We present the discovery and characterization of SN~2018erx (ZTF18abkmbpy), a fast-evolving, unusually red, interacting stripped-envelope supernova. Spectroscopically, SN~2018erx shows broad \ion{C}{2} emission with characteristic widths of…
We study the persistent black hole X-ray binary Cyg X-1, recently observed by XRISM Resolve and simultaneously by NICER and NuSTAR in its hard spectral state. We confirm the result of Draghis et al.\ that fits of the Resolve data alone with…
The census of massive clusters of galaxies in the local Universe is almost complete, thanks to their prominent observational signatures at X-ray, optical, and sub-mm wavelengths. Nevertheless, a number of such systems are likely to be…
We report on the long-term timing analysis of PSR J2022+3842 using observations from the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER), along with spectral properties derived from joint observations with NICER and the Nuclear…
While the origin of merging black-hole binaries observed in gravitational waves remain uncertain, different formation channels are expected to leave distinct imprints on their observed mass and spin distributions. In this work, we focus on…
Cosmic ray (CR) propagation is controlled by scattering in turbulent magnetic fields in space. In general, diffusive propagation is governed by pitch-angle diffusion in phase space. In this study, pitch-angle diffusion in the local…
The origin of extragalactic high-energy neutrinos remains a major mystery in astrophysics, with blazars as leading candidate sources. The widely adopted one-zone leptohadronic jet model, however, faces severe challenges from stringent X-ray…
The launch of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has enabled the discovery of a small but increasing sample of high-redshift core-collapse supernovae (CC SNe), which provide new tests of massive star evolution in the early Universe. In…
By performing a viscous hydrodynamics simulation in general relativity for super-Eddington accretion flows onto massive black holes of mass $M=10^5$--$10^7M_\odot$, we discuss a formation scenario for black hole-envelope systems. We…
Binary neutron star mergers can form short-lived magnetar-like remnants whose magnetically dominated polar towers reach $B\sim10^{15}$--$10^{16}\,\mathrm{G}$, but the microphysical composition of these outflows remains poorly understood.…
We reevaluate 610 sources classified as Flat-spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) in the 5th edition of the Roma-BZCAT. Optical spectra from SDSS DR16 confirm broad emission lines within $0.11 \leq z \leq 5.28$. To assess their blazar-like…
Relativistic jets launched from stellar-mass compact objects embedded in the accretion disk of an active galactic nucleus (AGN) can produce nonthermal emission upon successfully breaking out of the disk. In this paper, we present a…
Millisecond magnetars, rapidly rotating neutron stars with ultra-strong magnetic fields, have long been proposed as central engines of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). For GRBs produced by neutron star mergers, the survival of a long-lived magnetar…
A repeating partial tidal disruption event (rpTDE) is typically modeled as a star on a bound orbit that is partially disrupted by a massive black hole (MBH) at each pericenter passage. For disruption to occur, the pericenter distance must…
Fast X-ray transients (FXTs) have been detected for over a decade, yet their origins are still enigmatic. The observed association between FXTs and broad-lined Type Ic supernovae (SNe Ic-BL) suggests that some may share the same progenitor…
We investigate whether stochastic acceleration associated with pressure-anisotropy-driven magnetogenesis can generate a dynamically significant population of cosmic rays (CRs) prior to nonlinear structure formation. As magnetic fields…
We investigate the extent to which supervised machine learning techniques can distinguish between neutron-star matter models using macroscopic and oscillation-related quantities derived from theoretical stellar configurations. Four…
We report the first detection of X-ray polarization with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer from the X-ray pulsar (XRP) 4U 1954$+$319. The source belongs to an extremely rare class of systems in which a slowly rotating neutron star…
