Invited talk Observations across electromagnetic spectrum: from gamma to radio

Speaker

Description

I review the recent progress in studying gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), fast X-ray transients (FXTs), and fast radio bursts (FRBs) within the context of multi-wavelength (MW) and multi-messenger (MM) transient astrophysics. Special attention is paid to the breakthrough observations made with the Einstein Probe, SVOM space telescopes, and the FAST radio telescope. Current understanding and open questions in these areas will be highlighted, with a discussion of the prospects of making further progress in the upcoming decade.
