Luminous Fast Blue Optical Transients as "Failed" Gravitational-wave Sources: Helium CoreBlack Hole Mergers Following Delayed Dynamical Instability

Jakub Klencki, Brian D. Metzger

Binaries in which a massive donor star undergoes an extended ( kyr) phase of stable mass transfer onto a black hole (BH) accretor offer a promising channel for creating LI…

Delayed Radio Flares in Tidal Disruption Events from Star-Disk Collision Outflows

Itai Linial, Brian D. Metzger, Andrei M. Beloborodov

A growing fraction of tidal disruption events (TDEs) exhibit radio emission that rises only years after the optical or infrared flare, indicating delayed outflow activity. In some…

Electromagnetic Follow-up of the Sub-Solar Mass Gravitational Wave Candidate S251112cm: Kilonova Constraints and a Coincident IIb Supernova

Xander J. Hall, Tomas Ahumada, Julius Gassert +25

On November 12th, 2025 the LIGO--Virgo--KAGRA (LVK) collaboration reported gravitational waves (GWs) from a compact object merger candidate (S251112cm) with at least one sub-solar…

Circumbinary Discs as the Origin of Circumstellar Material around Interacting H-poor Supernovae and Fast Blue Optical Transients

Ryotaro Chiba, Semih Tuna, Brian D. Metzger +1

Around 10 % of hydrogen-poor supernovae explode inside compact ( cm), massive () circumstellar material (CSM), signalling an episode of e…

Quantifying the impact of relativistic precession on tidal disruption event light curves

Diego Calderón, Ondřej Pejcha, Brian D. Metzger +2

The tidal field of a black hole can turn a star into a gas stream whose orbit can precess, especially if the a black hole is rapidly spinning. In this work, we investigate the impa…

Relativistic jets from millisecond proto-magnetars

Dhruv K. Desai, Luciano Combi, Daniel M. Siegel +1

Rapidly rotating, strongly magnetized neutron stars (``millisecond proto-magnetars'') formed in stellar core-collapse, neutron star mergers, and white dwarf accretion-induced colla…
