Journal ArticleDOI

Gravitational-wave and X-ray probes of the neutron star equation of state

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors discuss what we have learned about the physics of neutron stars from gravitational wave and X-ray observations, focusing on what has been observed with certainty and what should be observable in the near future.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reionization constraints on the contribution of primordial compact objects to dark matter

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that accretion onto these objects produces substantial ionization in the early universe, with an optical depth to Thomson scattering out to z ~ 1100 of τ ≈ 2 - 4[fCO-1(M/M☉)]1/2(H0/65)-1, where -1 is the accretion efficiency ≡ L/c2 divided by 0.1, and fCO is the fraction of matter in the compact objects.
Journal ArticleDOI

A new method for finding point sources in high-energy neutrino data

TL;DR: In this article, a new maximum likelihood method that uses the angular separations between all pairs of neutrinos in the data was proposed, which incorporates information about the point spread function and can identify individual point sources.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Radius of PSR J0740+6620 from NICER with NICER Background Estimates

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors performed a similar Bayesian estimation for the pulse profile model parameters, except that instead of fitting simultaneously the XMM-Newton data, they used the best available NICER background estimates to constrain the number of photons detected from the source.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electromagnetic counterparts to massive black-hole mergers

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors provide an introduction to this research topic by presenting a summary of key findings, physical processes and ideas pertaining to EM counterparts to MBH mergers as they are known at the time of this writing.
