I identify a point-symmetric morphology in the core-collapse supernova (CCSN) remnant SNR G11.2-0.3 composed of three pairs of opposite morphological features, and attribute their shaping to three energetic pairs of jets during the…

The diffuse emission of gamma-rays and neutrinos, produced by interactions of cosmic rays with interstellar matter in the Milky Way, provides valuable insights into cosmic ray propagation and Galactic processes. Emission models…

Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has detected a diverse range of gamma-ray transients since its launch in 2008. Over the years, Fermi has accumulated an extensive public archive of transient events. Traditional classification methods for…

The core of a massive star (M > 8 Msun) eventually collapses. This implosion usually triggers a supernova (SN) explosion that ejects most of the stellar envelope and leaves behind a neutron star (NS) with a mass of up to about 2 Msun.…

The Crab Nebula is the brightest source in the very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray sky and one of the best studied non-thermal objects. The dominant VHE emission mechanism is believed to be inverse Compton scattering of low energy photons on…

When blazars flare, their optical position moves. We show this by combining Gaia DR3 proper motions with epoch photometry for blazars with strong optical jet emission. In 60 of 74 sources with significant proper motion, rising flux drives…

Merging binary black holes embedded in gaseous environments, such as supermassive black hole binaries following gas-rich galaxy mergers, are promising sources of multi-messenger transients in the upcoming age of space-based gravitational…

We present the first spectral analysis of Scorpius X-1 (Sco X-1) using intentional stray light (SL) observations taken by NuSTAR. Unlike focused observations that have high telemetry load when observing bright sources, intentional SL…

Black holes (BHs) and wormholes (WHs) are characterized by distinct spacetime geometries, whose differences become pronounced close to the central objects. A useful way to probe such differences is via the dynamics of stellar tidal…

We analyse the gravitational-wave emission from 60 two-dimensional core-collapse supernova simulations. The models cover a range of progenitors and equations of state. We focus on the narrow frequency interval in the gravitational-wave…

Recently, the GeV--sub-PeV spectrum of supernova remnant (SNR) Cassiopeia A (Cas A), one of the youngest and most well-studied SNRs in our Galaxy, has been updated by observations of Fermi-LAT and LHAASO. We revisit Cas A with our previous…

The collapse of massive stars drives explosions that power relativistic fireballs. If only a small amount of matter is entrained, such clean fireballs can expand with Lorentz factors $\Gamma> 100$, accounting for gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). It…

Recently, binary pulsar timing has been proposed as a viable probe of dark matter subhalos with masses of $\sim 10^7\,M_{\odot}$ in the solar neighborhood. We present a comprehensive analytical framework that incorporates the subhalo mass…

Using two observations obtained with the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST), we present a detailed single-pulse analysis of the high-nulling pulsar PSR J1820-0509. We measure an exceptionally high nulling fraction…

Stellar-mass black holes (BHs) surrounded by neutrino-dominated accretion flows (NDAFs) are a leading central engine of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). In this work, we investigate the electron fraction distribution in NDAFs with or without disk…

Following long periods of quiescence, low-mass X-ray binaries can exhibit intense X-ray outbursts triggered by instabilities within the accretion disk. These outbursts can sometimes be detected in optical wavelengths before being detected…

The electric fields inside thunderstorms can significantly modify the intensity of secondary cosmic ray muons at the ground level, producing measurable variations in their intensity ($\Delta$I$_{\mu}$). By utilizing the decade-long…

Magnetized and rotating core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) are promising candidates for producing long gamma-ray bursts and hypernovae. In this project, we present 34 two-dimensional magnetized core-collapse supernova simulations with…

The dynamics and observable signatures of neutron star mergers are governed by physics under the most extreme conditions. They are particularly impacted by the high-density equation of state, which for the most sophisticated models is…

We report on the cosmic ray mass composition measured by the Telescope Array Low-energy Extension (TALE) hybrid detector. The TALE detector consists of a fluorescence detector (FD) station with 10 FD telescopes located at the Telescope…
