Gamma-ray observatory INTEGRAL reloaded

The scientific aims of the European Space Agency's International Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory are considerably extended because of its unique capability to identify electromagnetic counterparts to sources of gravitational waves and ultra-high-energy neutrinos.

A fast X-ray transient from a weak relativistic jet associated with a type Ic-BL supernova

The Einstein Probe has discovered a fast X-ray transient, EP240414a, associated with a broad-lined type Ic supernova. Its unusually soft spectrum and weak jet add to the diversity of stellar deaths and suggest a previously unknown Wolf–Rayet star explosion mechanism.

Soft X-ray prompt emission from the high-redshift gamma-ray burst EP240315a

The death of massive stars has traditionally been discovered by explosive events in the gamma-ray band. Liu et al. show that the sensitive wide-field monitor on board Einstein Probe can reveal a weak soft-X-ray signal much earlier than gamma rays.

Localized thermonuclear bursts from accreting magnetic white dwarfs

The identification and characterization of rapid bursts in three accreting white dwarfs have shown that magnetically confined thermonuclear runaways resembling type-I X-ray bursts may occur in the surface layers of white dwarf atmospheres.

An elevation of 0.1 light-seconds for the optical jet base in an accreting Galactic black hole system

A delay between rapid optical and X-ray flux variations from an accreting black-hole binary is reported together with a brightening radio jet, indicating a characteristic elevation of the radiative jet base of 0.1 light-seconds above the black hole.

The NewAthena mission concept in the context of the next decade of X-ray astronomy

This Perspective looks forwards to the next decade of X-ray astronomy, explaining how it will contribute to better understanding of the high-energy Universe. In this context, the authors describe the NewAthena mission, a concept led by the European Space Agency.

Cobalt-56 γ-ray emission lines from the type Ia supernova 2014J

The detection of ⁵⁶Co γ-ray emission from the supernova 2014J proves that type Ia supernovae result from a thermonuclear explosion of a carbon–oxygen white dwarf or of a pair of merging white dwarfs.
