We report the first detection of radio emission from the Type II supernova SN 2007it, located at a distance of 12.2 Mpc in NGC 5530. The observations were obtained with the Australian Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) more than 18 yr after the…
Little Red Dots (LRDs) have emerged as one of the central puzzles of the JWST era. Their spectra increasingly require dense gas close to the source, yet the physical origin of that cocoon-like structure remains unclear. We examine whether…
G310.7-5.4 is a supernova remnant (SNR) candidate identified as a faint shell in the second epoch Molonglo Galactic Plane Survey (MGPS-2), but this has not been followed up with multi-wavelength observations until now. It is an example of…
The study of quasi-period microstructures in pulsars offers valuable insights into the underlying emission mechanism. However, identifying these features through manual inspection of the intensity time series, often containing thousands to…
Massive stars commonly form binaries that can evolve into compact systems via common envelope evolution (CEE), a critical but poorly understood phase -- especially when the companion is a neutron star. Understanding the drag force exerted…
The cubic-kilometer neutrino telescopes have opened neutrino astronomy as an observational discipline. The recent detection of KM3-230213A, the highest-energy neutrino ever observed at ~220 PeV, as a near-horizontal muon track underscores…
Discoveries of ultra-massive magnetic white dwarfs (WDs) and peculiar pulsars have been proposed to originate in double white dwarf (DWD) mergers. There are three possible post-merger central remnants of non-explosive mergers: 1) a stable…
We present an automated framework to search for optical counterparts of LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) gravitational wave (GW) superevents using public Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) alerts processed through the ALeRCE broker. The goal is to…
Black holes described by the Kerr metric can have a theoretical maximum dimensionless spin parameter of $a_\bullet = 1$, but several effects may limit the maximum spin parameter in astrophysical systems. We perform general relativistic…
The advent of the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory (CTAO) and recent advances in reconstruction of gamma-ray photons with Cherenkov telescopes are bound to push the limit of angular resolution to an unprecedented precision of less than…
We investigate the dynamics of transonic advective accretion flows around spinning black holes in the presence of viscosity. The spacetime of a Kerr black hole is approximated using a pseudo-potential. We study viscously driven shock…
We evaluate whether dissipation of turbulence injected into hot cluster atmospheres by jets and bubbles can offset radiative cooling flows. No trends are found between atmospheric velocity dispersion, $\sigma_v$, and either the ratio of…
NICER observations of millisecond pulsars (MSPs) suggest that non-dipolar magnetic fields are required to explain their surface X-ray hotspots. C. Kalapotharakos et al. (2021) modeled the NICER light curve of MSP J0030+0451 (J0030) using a…
SDSSJ110546.07+145202.4 stands out as a unique radio changing-look Narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxy that has brightened dramatically and shows an exceptionally long duration of its "on" phase. We present the first high-frequency radio…
The young supernova remnant SNR 0540-69.3 in the Large Magellanic Cloud offers a detailed view of an energetic pulsar-wind nebula interacting with the surrounding ejecta. We present infrared observations of the central region of SNR…
We present a practical implementation of a phase-coherent mapping technique for pulsar timing arrays that resolves the full complex polarisation state of the gravitational-wave sky as a function of direction and frequency. Unlike standard…
The shock fronts of supernova remnants (SNRs) are believed to be significant sites of acceleration of cosmic ray particles. Previous researchers have shown that a particle distribution similar to a log-parabola can be generated when…
In order to model astrophysical environments characterized by radial stratification, such as supernova remnants or expanding superbubbles; correctly understanding the transport of non-thermal particles in astrophysical plasmas is essential.…
High energy neutrinos can be injected in the early Universe from the decay or annihilation of long lived primordial relics. We analyse the possibility that the ultrahigh energy neutrino event recently observed by the KM3NeT neutrino…
The recent O4a release from the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration, which significantly increased the number of gravitational-wave (GW) detections, reveals features with potentially important astrophysical implications. One notable example is a…
