    Discovery of oscillations above 200 keV in a black hole X-ray binary with Insight-HXMT

    Low-frequency quasiperiodic oscillations (LFQPOs) are commonly found in black hole X-ray binaries, and their origin is still under debate. The properties of LFQPOs at high energies (above 30 keV) are closely r...
