A peculiar low-luminosity short gamma-ray burst from a double neutron star merger progenitor
Li, Y.; Shao, L.; Zhang, S. +15 more
Double neutron star (DNS) merger events are promising candidates of short gamma-ray burst (sGRB) progenitors as well as high-frequency gravitational wave (GW) emitters. On August 17, 2017, such a coinciding event was detected by both the LIGO-Virgo gravitational wave detector network as GW170817 and Gamma-Ray Monitor on board NASA's Fermi Space Te…
Formation and dynamics of a solar eruptive flux tube
Kusano, Kanya; Inoue, Satoshi; Büchner, Jörg +1 more
Solar eruptions are well-known drivers of extreme space weather, which can greatly disturb the Earth's magnetosphere and ionosphere. The triggering process and initial dynamics of these eruptions are still an area of intense study. Here we perform a magnetohydrodynamic simulation taking into account the observed photospheric magnetic field to reve…
