In the last few years it has been recognized that two apparently distinct classes of peculiar high-energy sources are actually related and can be explained as young neutron stars with magnetic fields as high as 10e14 - 10e15 Gauss. One of…
There are two classes of gamma-ray transients with a duration shorter than 2 seconds. One consists of cosmic short Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) taking place in the deep universe via the neutron star mergers, and the other is the magnetar giant…
We announce the discovery of a quasar behind the disk of M31, which was previously classified as a remarkable nova in our neighbour galaxy. The paper is primarily aimed at the outburst of J004457+4123 (Sharov 21), with the first part…
We present the first Suzaku observation of the new Soft Gamma Repeater SGR 0501+4516, performed on 2008 August 26, four days after the onset of bursting activity of this new member of the magnetar family. The soft X-ray persistent emission…
We report the discovery of a new soft gamma repeater (SGR), SGR 1627-41, and present BATSE observations of the burst emission and BeppoSAX NFI observations of the probable persistent X-ray counterpart to this SGR. All but one burst spectrum…
Based on archival Chandra observations, we present a systematic timing survey of several hundred X-ray sources in M31, M81, and Centaurus A, mostly low-mass X-ray binaries (LXMBs), focusing on searching and characterizing aperiodic and…
This paper is the first in a series which studies interactions between M31 and its satellites, including the origin of the giant southern stream. We construct accurate yet simple analytic models for the potential of the M31 galaxy to…
In this work, we present a multi-wavelength study of XRF 040912, aimed at measuring its distance scale and the intrinsic burst properties. We performed a detailed spectral and temporal analysis of both the prompt and the afterglow emission…
On 2004 December 27, a giant flare from the soft gamma repeater 1806$-$20 was observed. The radiation mechanism of the initial peak of the flare would be controversial. In this letter we point out that very high-energy cosmic rays would be…
Eighteen years after their discovery, the astronomical sources and radiation mechanisms of fast radio bursts remain mysterious. Their radiation is as bright as that of pulsars, with brightness temperatures as high as $\sim 10^{36}$ K,…
We present $B$ and $V$ light curves of a large stellar flare obtained with the Wide Field Camera at the Isaac Newton 2.5-m telescope (La Palma). The source object is a faint ($m_V=21.38$) foreground star in the field of the Andromeda…
The unidentified source IGR J16328-4726 was covered with INTEGRAL observations for a long period (~9.8Ms) and was undetectable for most of the time while showing a very recurrent micro-activity with a duration from tens minutes to several…
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are extremely strong radio flares lasting several milliseconds, most of which come from unidentified objects at a cosmological distance. They can be apparently repeating or not. In this paper, we analyzed 18…
Thanks to INTEGRAL's long exposures of the Galactic Plane, the two brightest Soft Gamma-Ray Repeaters, SGR 1806-20 and SGR 1900+14, have been monitored and studied in detail for the first time at hard-X/soft-gamma rays. SGR 1806-20, lying…
We present CO(J=1-0) observations in the direction of the Soft Gamma Repeater SGR 1806-20 with the SEST telescope. We detected several molecular clouds, and we discuss in this paper the implications of these observations for the distance to…
FRB 180916 is a most intriguing source at 150 Mpc distance capable of producing repeating fast radio bursts with a periodic 16.35 day temporal pattern. We report on the X-ray and $\gamma$-ray observations of FRB 180916 obtained by AGILE and…
We present our temporal and spectral analyses of 29 bursts from SGR J0501+4516, detected with the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor onboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope during the 13 days of the source activation in 2008 (August 22 to…
Among a number of gamma ray bursts whose host galaxies are known, GRB971214 stands out for its high redshift $z\ge 3$ and the Ly$\alpha$ emission line having a P-Cygni type profile, which is interpreted to be a direct consequence of the…
230307A is the second brightest gamma ray burst detected in more than 50 years of observations and is located in the direction of the Magellanic Bridge. Despite its long duration, it is most likely the result of the compact merger of a…
The unexpected localization of the repeating FRB 20200120E to a globular cluster challenges conventional FRB models based on magnetars formed via core collapse. One alternative model suggests that FRB 20200120E is a millisecond pulsar (MSP)…
