With 20 years of INTEGRAL/SPI observations, Yoneda et al. (2025) created the most detailed map of the positron annihilation line at 511keV. While central bulge and extended disk are readily recognised in this map, several hotspots at high…
We present deep Chandra observations of the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) powered by PSR J0007+7303 in the composite supernova remnant CTA 1. The merged ACIS image shows a $\sim20''$ jet extending south of the pulsar and bending toward the…
The Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) Cygnus Loop emerges as an ideal laboratory for analyzing the different radiation mechanisms, as well as the particle acceleration mechanisms at different types of shocks. In order to determine radio…
T Coronae Borealis (T CrB) is a symbiotic recurrent nova (RN) that exhibits both nova eruptions and long-term active phases resembling superoutbursts and normal outbursts. Motivated by proposed connections between these events and the…
The suppression of the neutron superfluid fraction in the inner crust of a cold neutron star is mitigated by the quantum zero-point motion of ions about their equilibrium position. In turn, the crustal dynamics is altered by the presence of…
Cygnus X-3 presents significant challenges to standard accretion models. Recent polarimetric observations by IXPE reveal high polarization degrees (PD) in the hard state ($\sim 23\%$) and unexpectedly significant polarization in the soft…
We conducted an analysis of gamma-ray variability in a large sample of jetted active galactic nuclei (AGNs) by utilizing archival Fermi-LAT light curves and applying damped random walk modeling to obtain variability amplitude. Our primary…
We present an analysis of the non-thermal properties of the merging galaxy cluster SPT-CL J2012-5649/Abell~3667 ($z = 0.0556$, $M_{500} = 7.16 \times 10^{14}\ M_\odot$) using the MINOT non-thermal emission modelling framework. The predicted…
A newborn, rapidly rotating magnetar may form in a binary neutron star merger and drive a Poynting-flux-dominated relativistic jet. As the jet propagates outward, a forward shock (FS) and a reverse shock (RS) are formed, inflating a pulsar…
The origin of half of the rapid neutron-capture nucleosynthesis (r-process) elements in the Universe remains an open question. Binary neutron star (BNS) mergers have been shown to face difficulties in reproducing the observed r-process…
The North Polar Spur (NPS) is a prominent diffuse X-ray feature whose origin has remained uncertain for decades. Using a uniform analysis of archival \textit{Suzaku} and \textit{XMM--Newton} data with new \textit{Chandra} observations, we…
In a tidal disruption event (TDE), a star is destroyed by the tidal field of a supermassive black hole. The stellar debris is initially placed on highly elliptical orbits, and a longstanding question in TDE theory is: How does the stellar…
We investigate magnetic-energy dissipation, current-sheet dynamics, and nonthermal particle acceleration in three-dimensional relativistic reconnection in an electron--ion plasma with a realistic mass ratio. Using particle-in-cell…
One of the most useful spectral diagnostics of accreting black hole systems is the Fe K$\alpha$ fluorescence line. Detected in many systems, it is often used to estimate the black hole spin, as its breadth is attributed to relativistic…
We present an analysis of the time delay between the radio emission and the X-ray Compton luminosity during the 2010-2011 outburst of GX 339-4. Using the interpolated cross-correlation function (ICCF), we measure the time delay between the…
The high-frequency gravitational-wave band is often discussed primarily in the context of new physics, but realistic Standard-Model foregrounds remain incompletely characterized. We investigate pulsar polar caps as a physically motivated…
Pulsar halos provide a unique probe of cosmic-ray propagation in the vicinity of pulsars and have important implications for our understanding of particle diffusion in the interstellar medium. However, the number of firmly identified pulsar…
We study the advection effect of the Galactic wind on the local cosmic ray spectra. The spectral hardening from a few hundred GV and softening from a few TV are reproduced by a velocity profile with a maximum velocity of $\sim…
We perform population synthesis modeling of isolated neutron stars in the Milky Way over its lifetime. Compared with previous studies, we use more detailed models of the interstellar medium and the magneto-rotational evolution of neutron…
Pulsars emit beams of radiation that reveal the extreme physics of neutron star magnetospheres. Yet, their understanding remains incomplete. Recent global Particle-in-Cell (PIC) simulations have raised several questions that led us to…
