We release CosmoDC2_BCO, a synthetic catalog of gravitational-wave events and electromagnetic counterparts associated with galaxies from CosmoDC2. The catalog provides intrinsic and extrinsic source parameters, signal-to-noise ratios,…
Millisecond pulsars (MSPs) are the oldest but fastest pulsars known to date. In the 1980s, to explain how these pulsars could be formed, a new hypothesis was formulated: the recycling of pulsars, i.e the fact that a pulsar could accrete…
Pressure isotropy, i.e., equality between radial and tangential pressure, is often assumed when studying neutron stars. However, mechanisms such as pion/kaon condensation, magnetic fields, and dark matter clustering can lead to pressure…
We developed a new model for the production and propagation of spectrally resolved primary and secondary Cosmic Ray (CR) nuclei elements within the framework of the Cosmic Ray Energy Spectrum (CRESP) module of the PIERNIK MHD code. We…
Stellar-mass binary black holes (BBH) may form, evolve, and merge within the dense environments of active galactic nuclei (AGN) disks, thereby contributing to the BBH population detected by gravitational wave (GW) observatories. Mergers…
We present spectral analysis results of deeper (270 ks) NuSTAR observations of the merging galaxy cluster system, ZWCL1856.8+6616, at redshift z=0.304, following a pilot study using shallower (30 ks) NuSTAR data (Tumer et al. 2024). The…
Axion-Like-Particles (ALPs) are hypothetical pseudo-scalar particles actively searched as light dark matter candidates. The coupling of ALPs to photons can give rise to distinctive spectral features in the observed gamma-ray spectrum of…
We revisit the physical origin of the achromatic peaks and breaks observed several thousand seconds after the burst in the multi-wavelength afterglows of XRF 080330 and GRB 080710. Using a numerical afterglow model that consistently…
We perform three-dimensional radiation-relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (3D Rad-RMHD) simulations of accretion flows around spinning active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Our study focuses on the magnetically arrested disk (MAD) state, adopting a…
Tidal Disruption Events (TDEs) release enormous amounts of energy, offering a promising avenue for detecting Population III (Pop III) stars. However, the radiative properties of TDEs of Pop III stars have so far been studied only…
We investigated the timing and spectral properties of the millihertz quasi-periodic oscillations (mHz QPOs) in the neutron-star low-mass X-ray binary 4U 1608-52 using NICER observations. Our analysis reveals a correlation between the QPO…
We propose that an observed scarcity of remnant lobed AGNs in dense clusters results from a peculiarity in their dynamics upon the cessation of jet activity: a rapid `implosion' of lobes that, in their active phase, were primarily supported…
The X-ray emission of active galactic nuclei (AGN) is generally attributed to inverse Compton scattering of accretion-disk photons by hot electrons in a compact corona. In local AGN, directly constraining coronal properties is challenging…
Modern X-ray and $\gamma$-ray instruments are revealing a growing class of Galactic non-thermal sources whose emission centroids are measurably offset from the nearest plausible sites of cosmic ray (CR) acceleration. Such "displaced"…
Some gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) exhibit precursor emission episodes preceding the main emission, with a quiescent period in between. The properties of the precursor emission and the duration of the quiescent interval are related to the central…
The observed GWB spectrum is higher in amplitude than model predictions by a factor of 2-3. Using a semi-analytic model, we evaluate the effect of a high-scatter supermassive black hole (SMBH) scaling relation (Mbh-Mbulge) on models of the…
Ultraluminous X-ray sources represent extreme super-Eddington accretion regimes, and a subset is now known to host highly magnetized neutron stars. However, direct observational probes of their surface magnetic fields remain scarce. In this…
We present the results of a search for gravitational waves (GWs) from individual sources using high-cadence observations of PSR J1909\(-\)3744 obtained during an intensive observing campaign with the International Pulsar Timing Array second…
The hypothesis that supernova remnants are key sources of Galactic cosmic rays gains support from evidence that HESS J1731-347 one of the few Galactic objects capable of accelerating hadronic cosmic rays to TeV energies may harbor an exotic…
Recently, the IceCube Collaboration reported evidence for TeV neutrino emission from several nearby Seyfert galaxies, with the highest significance found for NGC 1068. Assuming stochastic proton acceleration in magnetized turbulence inside…
