Multi-epoch afterglow rebrightenings in GRB 250129A: Evidence for successive shock interactions

D. Akl, S. Antier, H. Koehn +105

Most long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) exhibit afterglows broadly consistent with external forward-shock emission, typically described by smooth broken power-law decays in the multiband…

Unveiling gravitational waves from core-collapse supernovae with MUSE

Alessandro Veutro, Irene Di Palma, Marco Drago +4

The core collapse of a massive star at the end of its life can give rise to one of the most powerful phenomena in the Universe. Because of violent mass motions that take place duri…

Kilonova and progenitor properties of merger-driven gamma-ray bursts

P. Singh, G. Stratta, A. Rossi +6

Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) prompt and afterglow emission, as well as a kilonova (KN), are the expected electromagnetic (EM) counterparts of Binary Neutron Star (BNS) and Neutron Star --…

Efficient Bayesian analysis of kilonovae and gamma ray burst afterglows with fiesta

Hauke Koehn, Thibeau Wouters, Peter T. H. Pang +4

Gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows and kilonovae (KNe) are electromagnetic transients that can accompany binary neutron star (BNS) mergers. Therefore, studying their emission process…

Multi-messenger Gravitational Lensing

Graham P. Smith, Tessa Baker, Simon Birrer +38

We introduce the rapidly emerging field of multi-messenger gravitational lensing - the discovery and science of gravitationally lensed phenomena in the distant universe through the…

Limits on the Ejecta Mass During the Search for Kilonovae Associated with Neutron Star-Black Hole Mergers: A case study of S230518h, GW230529, S230627c and the Low-Significance Candidate S240422ed

M. Pillas, S. Antier, K. Ackley +78

Neutron star-black hole (NSBH) mergers, detectable via their gravitational-wave (GW) emission, are expected to produce kilonovae (KNe). Four NSBH candidates have been identified an…
