Relativistic jets from Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are highly energetic and emit radiation across a wide range of frequencies. Despite several observational studies, their particle composition still remains a key open question. The…
Observations of linear structure connecting pulsars to gamma-ray halos reveal injection of TeV electrons into the interstellar medium (ISM). In some cases, this could be attributed to nearly scattering-free electron transport along…
Pulse-profile modeling of rotation-powered millisecond pulsars targeted by NICER has enabled mass--radius constraints of several neutron star sources, with implications for the dense-matter equation of state. For the bright isolated pulsar…
We present a comprehensive search for non-thermal high-energy $\gamma$-ray emission from the nearby merging galaxy cluster Abell~119 ($z=0.044$) using archival observations spanning over seven decades in photon energy. Our analysis combines…
Using the Spitzer and WISE images, we discovered 42 mid-IR luminous dusty supernovae with local integral-field spectroscopy data. The observed mid-IR emission indicates the presence of newly formed dust, or pre-existing dust heated by the…
Binary neutron star mergers are thought to produce hot, rapidly rotating neutron stars with masses that can far exceed their Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff mass. The gravitational-wave emission from such remnants provides a unique opportunity…
The "knee" of cosmic ray spectra may reflect the maximum energy accelerated by galactic cosmic ray sources or the limit of the galaxy's ability to bind cosmic rays. Measurements of individual energy spectra are a crucial tool to understand…
It has long been suggested that X-ray transients are produced at periastron of stellar-compact object binaries with eccentric orbits. Recoil of matter evaporated from the star by X-rays from matter transferred at periastron increases the…
Nearby radio galaxies are among the most promising candidates for the acceleration of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs). In this work, we develop a physically motivated, source-resolved framework to quantify the contribution of the…
Rapid TeV flares have been observed from the core of the active galaxy M87. These have been attributed to inverse Compton scattering of disk photons by electrons and positrons accelerated in transient reconnection layers formed in…
The Lagrangian Particles (LP) module of the PLUTO code offers a powerful simulation tool to predict the non-thermal emission produced by shock accelerated particles in large-scale relativistic magnetized astrophysics flows. The LPs…
Recently, an intermediate-mass black hole (IMBH) candidate was announced in the Galactic globular cluster Omega Centauri. IMBHs at the lower end of the traditional mass range have also been detected through gravitational-wave transients,…
We investigate the gravitational wave (GW) signals emitted by planetary-mass primordial black holes (PBHs) passing nearby or traversing neutron stars (NSs). While previous studies mainly focused on the detailed waveforms of the signals, we…
We present new X-ray, optical, and UV observations of the tidal disruption event candidate eRASSt J234402.9-352640, (hereafter J2344). Between 50 and 60 days after peak optical brightness, J2344 exhibited large-amplitude modulations in its…
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are common luminous astrophysical transients. SNe Ia serve as distance indicators for measuring the expansion rate of the universe and play important roles in galactic nucleosynthesis. However, ambiguities…
We investigate the arrival time and the Faraday rotation of extragalactic electromagnetic signals from fast radio bursts (FRBs) propagating through chiral cosmic media within the framework of Maxwell-Carroll-Field-Jackiw (MCFJ)…
Finding intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) and measuring their masses and spins are key to understanding massive black hole formation. White dwarf (WD)-IMBH binaries provide a unique probe because they emit both electromagnetic radiation…
Formation of a rapidly spinning, strongly magnetized neutron star (NS) may occur in various classes of core-collapse events. If the NS injects an amount of energy comparable to the explosion energy of the accompanying supernova (SN) before…
Regardless of their initial spins, the merger of two roughly equal mass black holes (BHs) produces a remnant BH of dimensionless spin $0.69$. Such remnants can merge with other BHs in dense stellar environments and produce hierarchical…
We present 15 years of Nan\c{c}ay and Green Bank radio telescope timing observations for PSR J1231$-$1411. This millisecond pulsar is a primary science target for the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer telescope (NICER, which…
