Some of the mysterious temporal properties of Fast Radio Bursts (FRB) may be explained if they are produced by dynamically triaxial magnetars. If the bursts are narrowly collimated along open field lines, then observed repeating FRB are…
Calcium-rich gap transients are a faint, fast-evolving class of supernovae that show strong nebular Ca emission lines. Their progenitor systems are uncertain, but they are often associated with old and quiescent host galaxies. In this work,…
Diffusive shock acceleration and diffusion propagation are essential components of the standard cosmic ray model. These theories are based on extensive observations of high-energy solar processes, providing substantial direct evidence in…
We present three-dimensional radiative transfer calculations for the ejecta from a neutron star merger that include line-by-line opacities for tens of millions of bound-bound transitions, composition from an r-process nuclear network, and…
Neutron star mergers are today considered a major production site for rapid neutron capture elements. While the bulk of the matter escapes at fast, but non-relativistic velocities (${\sim} 0.2\,c$), a small amount of the dynamically ejected…
SS 433 is a microquasar whose relativistic jets precess every ~162 days, providing a laboratory for jet-interstellar medium interactions. We present a comprehensive analysis of 16 years of Fermi Large Area Telescope data (August…
The gamma-ray emitting binary stellar system LS I +61 303 was observed with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) on two successive orbits over orbital phases of 0.74 to 1.05. Polarization is detected at a significance of…
We report the discovery of a correlated energy-dependent time lag and degree of polarization for Swift J1727.8-1613 during its 2023 outburst. The energy-dependent time lag is measured around the type-C quasi-periodic oscillations (QPO)…
We propose a new way to observe cosmic-ray-induced air showers by imaging the radio emission. With simulations we demonstrate key features for imaging the radio-wave emission from air showers, which show similarities to the well-established…
Blazars are conventionally classified into BL Lac objects and flat-spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs), commonly associated with radiatively inefficient and efficient accretion onto supermassive black holes, respectively. Increasing evidence,…
XSPECT instrument on-board XPoSat mission is a soft X-ray spectrometer sensitive in the energy band 0.8$-$15 keV. XSPECT has observed several bright neutron star low mass X-ray binaries since launch. Two well known sources, Aql X-1 and 4U…
Radio detection of extensive air showers enables near-continuous observation and precise measurements of the shower geometry and the depth of shower maximum, $X_{\rm max}$. Beyond $X_{\rm max}$, the longitudinal shower development follows a…
Mildly recycled pulsars are neutron stars partially spun up through relatively short mass-transfer phases, typically with massive carbon-oxygen (CO) or oxygen-neon-magnesium (ONeMg) white dwarf companions. PSR J2338+4818, a mildly recycled…
We reveal the effect of the spacetime parameters on the accretion morphology formed through the BHL mechanism around a slowly rotating disformal Kerr black hole. Thus, we investigate the measurable signatures of these parameters on the…
We present a search for new spider pulsar candidates through multi-wavelength cross-matching, including $\gamma$-ray, X-ray, and optical data. A search for sinusoidal-like optical modulations in TESS data of 183 eROSITA X-ray sources…
The recent 230 GHz observations from the Event Horizon Telescope collaboration have successfully imaged the supermassive black hole shadow of the M87 galaxy. However, the relatively high radiative efficiency observed in the hot accretion…
We report the discovery of an extended GeV {\gamma}-ray source, 4FGL J0330.7+5845e, associated with the star-forming region AFGL 490 using 17 years of Fermi-LAT data. The emission is spatially coincident with a dense molecular cloud and…
The explodability of massive stars, namely whether they undergo core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) or form black holes (BHs), strongly influences galactic chemical evolution (GCE). Details of the explodability are still controversial, but…
The origin of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos remains a key open question in multimessenger astrophysics. A correlation between unabsorbed hard X-ray emission and high-energy neutrino luminosity has been reported in a sample of six…
Pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) constitute the largest population of Galactic very-high-energy (VHE; $E > 100$ GeV) $\gamma$-ray sources and are key laboratories for studying particle acceleration and pulsar--supernova remnant (SNR)…
