GRB 190829A - A Showcase of Binary Late Evolution

GRB 190829A is the fourth closest gamma-ray burst (GRB) to date (z=0.0785). Owing to its wide range of radio, optical, X-ray, and the very-high-energy (VHE) observations by H.E.S.S., it has become an essential new source examined by various models with complementary approaches.

In a new paper accepted for publication in ApJ, an international team (Yu Wang, J. A. Rueda, R. Ruffini, R. Moradi, Liang Li, Y. Aimuratov, F. Rastegarnia, S. Eslamzadeh, N. Sahakyan, Yunlong Zheng) studies the emissions from this celestial source and models the sequence of physical and related radiation processes in BdHNe and focus on individuating the binary properties that play the relevant roles.

MISTRAL, a wind of change in the SRT observations

May 29, 2025

MISTRAL, a wind of change in the SRT observations MISTRAL is a new-generation receiver for observations at millimeter wavelengths, built as part of the recent project to upgrade the Sardinia Radio Telescope for the study of the high-frequency radio universe. The main features of this instrument are the very high number of detectors cooled to temperatures close to absolute zero and a dedicated cold optical system, which allow for extremely sharp images. MISTRAL made its “first light” by observing three different celestial objects: the Orion Nebula, the radio lobes of the supermassive black hole in the galaxy M87, and the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A. These images represent the first scientific observations at 90 GHz ever obtained using the SRT
