Evolution of Stellar Activity and Habitable Zone. III. X-Ray Activity of Dwarfs in Open Clusters and Field Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Stellar X-ray emission serves as a direct diagnostic of coronal activity, which is fundamentally linked to coronal heating processes. It also strongly influences the atmospheres and long-term habitability of orbiting exoplanets.

Do Accretion Disks Get Bent Out of Shape? Investigating the Origin of Rapid Fluctuations in the Tails of Long Thermonuclear X-Ray Bursts

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Thermonuclear X-ray bursts from the surfaces of neutron stars affect the surrounding accretion flow, revealing details of the underlying physical processes influencing accretion physics.

Constraints on Neutron Star Structure from the Clocked X-Ray Burster 1RXS J180408.9−342058

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Type I X-ray bursts are rapid-brightening transient phenomena on the surfaces of accreting neutron stars (NSs). Some X-ray bursts, called clocked bursters, exhibit regular behavior with similar light-curve profiles in their burst sequences.

Phase-resolved Deadtime of the Crab Pulsar Using IXPE Data

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
After receiving an X-ray photon, an X-ray detector is not operational for a duration known as deadtime. It is detector specific and its effect on the data depends upon the luminosity of the source.

Magnetic Activity in X-Ray Stars from eROSITA: Insights from the TESS and LAMOST Surveys

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We have focused on investigating X-ray stars obtained from eROSITA Data Release 1 (eRASS1) and conducting crossmatching with the TESS and LAMOST surveys.

X-ray counterparts to stellar MeerKAT Galactic-plane compact radio sources

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Radio emission from magnetically active stars arises primarily from non-thermal processes and provides information complementary to their high-energy X-ray emission.

Multi-observatory Study of Young Stellar Energetic Flares (MORYSEF): No Evidence for Abnormally Strong Stellar Magnetic Fields after Powerful X-Ray Flares

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We explore the empirical power-law relationship between X-ray luminosity ( L _X ) and total surface magnetic flux (Φ), established across solar magnetic elements, time- and disk-averaged emission from the Sun, older active stars, and pre-main-sequence ...

Stellar X-Ray Activity and Habitability Revealed by the ROSAT Sky Survey

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Using the homogeneous X-ray catalog from ROSAT observations, we conducted a comprehensive investigation into stellar X-ray activity–rotation relations for both single and binary stars.

Limits to Extracting Neutron-star Physics Constraints from NICER Pulse Profiles

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Modeling energy-dependent X-ray pulse profiles from rotation-powered millisecond pulsars observed with Neutron Star Interior and Composition Explorer (NICER) has emerged as a promising avenue for measuring neutron-star radii and probing the equation of ...
