Pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) are bubbles of relativistic particles, powered by the rotational energy loss of the central pulsars. The Crab Nebula, powered by the Milky Way's most energetic pulsar, was discovered by the Large High Altitude Air…
Context. The prompt-emission time profiles of GRB 230307A and other long-duration compact object merger (COM) candidates exhibit a unique set of temporal properties, characterised by a deterministic evolution of waiting times and pulse…
We present very long baseline interferometric (VLBI) radio imaging and Fermi/LAT GeV $\gamma$-ray observations of the 2019 eruption of the symbiotic recurrent nova V3890 Sgr.The VLBI imaging spans 8 -- 51 days after eruption, synchronous…
Cosmic rays are charged energetic particles that permeate the interstellar medium. Their sizeable energy share and penetration power makes them essential players in the dynamical and chemical processes that rule Galactic evolution, such as…
The anomalous rate of molecules ionization observed at the Central Molecular zone (CMZ) challenges known mechanisms of ionization observed in molecular clouds across the Galaxy, due to the exceptionally high levels of ionization measured…
A hyperaccreting stellar-mass black hole (BH) has been proposed as the candidate central engine of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). Comparing the predictions from the central engine models with the temporal behavior of GRBs is of great interest. In…
We present a spectral analysis of a black hole X-ray binary XTE J2012+381 during its 2022 outburst, using data from NICER and AstroSat. Combining data from NICER, LAXPC20, and SXT, we extract energy spectra covering the 0.7-10.0 keV range.…
We first investigate an approximate structure of the top region (TR) of a jet, sandwiched by a front shock from which the surrounding matter (SM) inflows and a rear shock from which the jet matter (JM) inflows. Since pressure in the TR is…
We present evidence for atomic absorption lines in the high-resolution 4-30 A X-ray spectrum of the neutron star RX J0822-4300 in the supernova remnant Puppis A. Comparison with model atmosphere calculations shows that features in the…
We report the discovery and characterization of PSR J1810-0623, a fully recycled millisecond pulsar with a spin period of 4.55 ms, discovered with the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST) and followed up with FAST…
Ultra-compact X-ray binaries (UCXBs) are a subclass of low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) characterized by ultra-short orbital periods, typically less than $60-80\,$min. They consist of a compact mass-accretor and a hydrogen-poor mass-donor,…
Kilonovae from compact binary mergers are most informative when accompanied by a gravitational-wave signal, which can help identify the source as a binary neutron star (BNS) or a neutron star-black hole (NSBH) merger. However, future events…
Hydrodynamic simulations of neutron star mergers rely on the clear separation between the strong-interaction, weak-interaction, and hydrodynamic timescales. In this effective framework, weak Urca interactions are typically the slowest…
The Forbush decrease (FD) of cosmic rays is an important probe of the interplanetary environment disturbed by solar activities. In this work, we study the properties of 8 FDs electrons (including positrons) between 2 GeV and 20 GeV from…
Recent hydrodynamical simulations have identified a disappearing thermal X-ray signature in massive black hole binaries (MBHBs) embedded in circumbinary disks, arising from the tidal truncation and depletion of minidiscs shortly before…
Millisecond pulsars (MSPs) have been proposed as evolutionary products of low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) through a stage in which they are spider pulsars (i.e., redbacks and black widows). However, recent work has found that the systemic…
TON\,0599 (z=0.7247) belongs to the few flat spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) detected in the very high energy (VHE, $E > 100$\,GeV) gamma-ray band. Its redshift makes it currently one of the farthest VHE gamma-ray sources. It was detected…
Intense magnetic fields in the atmospheres of neutron stars render non-trivial angular dependence of intensity and polarization of soft X-ray emission originating from their surfaces. By tracking the complex electric field vector for each…
We describe the design and commissioning tests for the DSA-110 Not-So-Fast Radio Burst (NSFRB) search pipeline, a 1.4GHz image-plane single-pulse search sensitive to 134ms-160.8s radio bursts. Extending the pulse width range of the FRB…
Photometric classification of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) is critical for cosmological studies but remains difficult due to class imbalance and observational noise. While deep learning models have been explored, they are often…
