X-rays breaking out of pre-explosion ejecta mark a supernova's first light

Weimin Yuan, Qiu-Ju Huang, Jin-Ping Zhu +130

Massive stars die as core-collapse supernovae, whose optical light emerges days after the implosion. Theory predicts that the initial collapse-driven shock, upon breaking through t…

Failed jet breakout in the metal-poor broad-lined type Ic supernova 2026gzf

Antonio Martin-Carrillo, Christina C. Thöne, James K. Leung +103

A long-standing question in the death of massive stars is the role of relativistic jets. While many gamma-ray bursts and some fast X-ray transients seem to be associated with broad…

GRB 260310A / SN 2026fgk: A Multi-Wavelength Study of a Nearby Underluminous Long GRB and SN with a Complex Afterglow

Ramandeep Gill, Rosa L. Becerra, Antonio de Ugarte Postigo +54

We present a comprehensive multi-wavelength study of GRB 260310A / SN 2026fgk, a nearby (), long-duration gamma-ray burst (GRB) with an exceptionally underluminous prompt…

Investigating the Circumnuclear Medium of Tidal Disruption Events with Radio Observations

Chang Zhou, Wei-Hua Lei, Xiangli Lei +3

Tidal disruption events (TDEs) are unique tools for investigating quiescent supermassive black hole (SMBH), accretion physics, and circumnuclear medium (CNM) environments. The CNM…

EP250827b/SN 2025wkm: An X-ray Flash-Supernova Powered by a Central Engine and Circumstellar Interaction

Gokul P. Srinivasaragavan, Dongyue Li, Xander J. Hall +100

We present the discovery of EP250827b/SN 2025wkm, an X-ray Flash (XRF) discovered by the Einstein Probe (EP), accompanied by a broad-line Type Ic supernova (SN Ic-BL) at $z = 0.119…

Spectral Hardening Reveals Afterglow Emergence in Long-Duration Fast X-ray Transients: A Case Study of GRB 250404A/EP250404a

Yi-Han Iris Yin, Yuan Fang, Bin-Bin Zhang +56

The prompt emission and afterglow phases of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been extensively studied, yet the transition between these two phases remains inadequately characterized du…
