AN UPPER BOUND ON NEUTRON STAR MASSES FROM MODELS OF SHORT GAMMA-RAY BURSTS [PDF]
The discovery of two neutron stars with gravitational masses ≈ 2 M ⊙ ?> has placed a strong lower limit on the maximum mass of nonrotating neutron stars, and with it a strong constraint on the properties of cold matter beyond nuclear density.

SEARCH FOR PROMPT NEUTRINO EMISSION FROM GAMMA-RAY BURSTS WITH ICECUBE [PDF]
We present constraints derived from a search of four years of IceCube data for a prompt neutrino flux from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). A single low-significance neutrino, compatible with the atmospheric neutrino background, was found in coincidence with one

A White Dwarf Merger Paradigm for Supernovae and Gamma-Ray Bursts
Gamma-ray bursts can appear to be a hundred times as luminous as supernovae, but their underlying energy source(s) have remained a mystery. However, there has been evidence for some time now of an association of gamma-ray bursts with supernovae of Type ...

Thermal and Nonthermal Emission from a Peculiar Long-duration GRB 211211A
Long-duration GRB 211211A that lacks a supernova emission even down to very stringent limits at such a low redshift z = 0.076 and is associated with kilonova emission, suggests that its physical origin is from a binary compact star merger. By reanalyzing

GRB 200829A: External-shock Origin of the Very Early Prompt Emission?
Long-duration GRB 200829A was detected by Fermi-GBM and Swift-BAT/XRT, and then rapidly observed by other ground-based telescopes. It has a weak γ -ray emission in the very early phase and is followed by a bright spiky γ -ray emission pulse.

Harnessing Photo‐Energy Conversion in Nanomaterials for Precision Theranostics
Harnessing photo‐energy conversion in nanomaterials enables precision theranostics through light‐driven mechanisms such as photoluminescence, photothermal, photoelectric, photoacoustic, photo‐triggered surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and photodynamic processes. This review explores six fundamental principles of photo‐energy conversion, recent
