The list includes a short-duration gamma-ray burst and its afterglow, an r-process-powered “macro-/kilo-/merger-novae” and its subsequent interaction with the ambient medium, an X-ray transient powered by a millisecond magnetar formed during a NS-NS merger, and (speculatively) a fast radio burst. | Contact person 所内联系人 | Qing-Guo Huang |
