Optical Appearance of Eccentric Tidal Disruption Events
The Astrophysical Journal LettersStars approaching supermassive black holes can be tidally disrupted. Despite being expected to emit X-rays, tidal disruption events (TDEs) have been largely observed in optical bands, which is poorly understood.

The Kick Velocity Distribution of Isolated Neutron Stars
The Astrophysical Journal LettersNeutron stars (NSs) are thought to receive natal kicks at their formation in supernovae. In order to investigate the magnitude of these kicks, we analyze the proper motions and distance estimates—through either parallax or dispersion measures—of young ...

Expansion of Accreting Main-sequence Stars during Rapid Mass Transfer
The Astrophysical Journal LettersAccreting main-sequence stars expand significantly when the mass accretion timescale is much shorter than their thermal timescales. This occurs during mass transfer from an evolved giant star onto a main-sequence companion in a binary system and is an ...

Choosing Suitable Noise Models for Nanohertz Gravitational-wave Astrophysics
The Astrophysical JournalAccurately estimating the parameters of the nanohertz gravitational-wave background is essential for understanding its origin. The background is typically modeled with a power-law spectrum, parameterized with an amplitude A , which describes its ...
