The death of massive stars produces central accreting compact objects and sometimes relativistic jets. Not all jets escape the stellar envelope: unsuccessful, or choked, jets dissipate their energy into a pressurized cocoon, which expands…

A merger of clusters naturally drives shocks with Mach number $\mathscr{M}\lesssim 3$ in the intra-cluster medium (ICM). This process creates several distinct signatures, including sharp surface brightness "edges", temperature, and gas…

XRISM observations to date have shown that gas kinetic pressures in the intracluster medium (ICM) tend towards the low end of predictions from cosmological simulations. Here, we present a XRISM observation of the merging cluster Abell 2034,…

IRAS 13224-3809 is one of the most intensively studied narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies, with a rich literature reporting diverse and sometimes contrasting interpretations of its complex X-ray spectra and variability. Notably, a fast and…

We present the first data release (DR1) of the Spectroscopic Classification of Astronomical Transients (SCAT) survey, covering the first $\approx 5$ years of observations (March 2018 - January 2023). DR1 includes 1810 spectra of 1330…

Compact stars serve as natural systems where matter exists at densities far beyond those achievable in laboratory experiments. Among them, magnetars are expected to possess interior magnetic fields that may reach values of the order of…

Gravitational-wave observations have revealed an excess of binary black hole mergers with primary masses near $\sim 35\,M_\odot$. We show that if this feature originates from dynamical formation in dense stellar systems, and if the…

The nature of the so-called G objects orbiting the Galactic Center remains unresolved. These sources exhibit compact Br$\gamma$ emission, extreme infrared colors, and remarkable dynamical stability through close passages to the central…

There is growing evidence from gravitational-wave observations that some merging black holes are created from previous mergers. Using the prediction that these hierarchically merged black holes have dimensionless spin magnitudes of $\chi…

In most particle acceleration or propagation theories, the characteristic features of the cosmic ray spectra due to acceleration limits or propagation phase changes are charge dependent. Alternatively, the interaction scenario would expect…

Two extreme events in the universe, fast radio bursts (FRBs) and cosmic rays (CRs), could be correlated, where FRBs with extreme field strength near their sources may contribute to CRs. This study investigates localized particle…

Space-based gravitational-wave observatories will detect the early inspiral of stellar-mass binary black holes and can track their eccentricity evolution. However, untargeted searches in the space band are computationally demanding and…

Supernovae that interact with hydrogen-poor, helium-rich circumstellar material (CSM), known as Type Ibn supernovae (SNe Ibn), present a unique opportunity to probe mass-loss processes in massive stars. In this work, we report the first…

3C403 is a well-known FRII radio galaxy with jets extending up to kiloparsec scales. We report its identification as the second most significant candidate among more than 150 sources examined using the 15-year neutrino dataset from the…

Identifying the physical mechanism driving blazar flares remains a central challenge in high-energy astrophysics. We show that the energy dependence of the standard deviation of the polarization angle variability ($\sigma_\text{PA}$)…

Multi-messenger astronomy requires real-time systems capable of rapidly responding to external alerts and sharing significant detections with partner observatories. KM3NeT, a deep-sea Cherenkov neutrino telescope in the Mediterranean Sea,…

Identifying compact binary coalescences buried within the non-Gaussian and non-stationary data taken by gravitational-wave interferometers requires sophisticated search pipelines, such as the PyCBC analysis. A critical task for these…

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are enigmatic millisecond-duration radio transients whose physical origins remain debated. To shed light on this, we analyze the CHIME/FRB Catalog 2. By using the probability distribution of dispersion measured (DM)…

Cataclysmic variables can show rapid increases in optical flux. Intermediate polars (IPs), a subset with strong magnetic fields that disrupt the inner accretion disc, have been thought to possess truncated discs that rarely undergo the…

PSR J0437-4715 is a gamma-ray millisecond pulsar, which has been detected by Fermi-LAT. For understanding the nature, we analyze the GeV gamma-ray data obtained with Fermi-LAT around the pulsar region. Based on the pulsar timing ephemeris,…
