Identification of the Optical Counterpart of the Fast X-Ray Transient EP240414a

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Fast X-ray transients (FXTs) are extragalactic bursts of X-rays first identified in archival X-ray data and are now routinely discovered in real time by the Einstein Probe, which is continuously surveying the night sky in the soft (0.5–4 keV) X-ray ...

Spectrophotometry of the transient X-ray source A0620-00

The Astrophysical Journal, 1977
Optical observations of the transient X-ray source A0620-00 over the wavelength range from about 3200 to 6600 A are analyzed which were made with the 5-m Hale telescope using a multichannel spectrometer, a digital spectrograph with a cooled integrating SIT vidicon, and an image photon-counting system attached to the camera of the coude spectrograph ...

Multimodal Data‐Driven Microstructure Characterization

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A self‐consistent autonomous workflow for EBSP‐based microstructure segmentation by integrating PCA, GMM clustering, and cNMF with information‐theoretic parameter selection, requiring no user input. An optimal ROI size related to characteristic grain size is identified.

Could a Kilonova Kill: A Threat Assessment

The Astrophysical Journal
Binary neutron star mergers produce high-energy emissions from several physically different sources, including a gamma-ray burst (GRB) and its afterglow, a kilonova (KN), and, at late times, a remnant many parsecs in size.

The hard quiescent spectrum of the neutron-star X-ray transient EXO 1745-248 in the globular cluster Terzan 5

, 2003
We present a Chandra observation of the globular cluster Terzan 5 during times when the neutron-star X-ray transient EXO 1745-248 located in this cluster was in its quiescent state.

Production of MgO/TiC Composites From MgO‐C Recyclates Using Spark Plasma Sintering

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Using the spark plasma sintering technique, MgO/TiC composites are manufactured from recycled MgO‐C refractories stemming from the steel production that were mixed with titanium powder. This article shows, how the size of the Ti grains and their distribution in the powder mixture affect the local carbon concentration in TiC.

Photoswitchable Conductive Metal–Organic Frameworks

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A conductive material where the conductivity can be modulated remotely by irradiation with light is presented. It is based on films of conductive metal–organic framework type Cu3(HHTP)2 with embedded photochromic molecules such as azobenzene, diarylethene, spiropyran, and hexaarylbiimidazole in the pores.

The Dzhanibekov Effect as a Possible Source of Magnetar Activity

The Astrophysical Journal
Magnetars, which are neutron stars with strong magnetic fields, exhibit occasional bursting activities. The shape of a magnetar is not perfectly spherical due to the Lorentz force exerted by its strong magnetic fields and is described as a triaxial body.

On the Distances to Transient X-Ray Sources

The Astrophysical Journal, 1973
Estimation of the distance of three transient X-ray sources characterized by a rapid increase to a flux comparable with the strongest galactic X-ray sources, followed by a slower decay over a time scale of three to four months. A simple argument based only on X-ray data is presented, which yields a typical distance estimate on the order of a few ...

The variable radio counterpart and possible large-scale jet of the new Z-source XTE J1701-462

, 2007
We report radio observations, made with the Australia Telescope Compact Array, of the X-ray transient XTE J1701-462. This system has been classified as a new `Z' source, displaying characteristic patterns of behaviour probably associated with accretion ...
