Multi-wavelength Constraints on the Transient EP250905a
J. Quirola-Vasquez, P. G. Jonker, A. Levan +30
Fast X-ray transients (FXTs) are a diverse class of high-energy suggested origins, ranging from stellar explosions to compact object mergers. The Einstein Probe (EP) satellite disc…
EP250207b is not a collapsar fast X-ray transient. Is it due to a compact object merger?
P. G. Jonker, A. J. Levan, Xing Liu +41
Fast X-ray Transients (FXTs) are short-lived extra-galactic X-ray sources. Recent progress through multi-wavelength follow-up of Einstein Probe discovered FXTs has shown that sever…
The most distant optically polarised GRB afterglow: GRB 240419A at z = 5.178
R. Brivio, S. Covino, M. Ferro +31
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are extremely bright phenomena powered by relativistic jets arising from explosive events at cosmological distances. The nature of the jet and the configura…
Evidence for an intrinsic luminosity-decay correlation in GRB radio afterglows
S. P. R. Shilling, S. R. Oates, D. A. Kann +12
We present the discovery of a correlation, in a sample of 16 gamma-ray burst 8.5 GHz radio afterglows, between the intrinsic luminosity measured at 10 days in the rest frame, $L_{\…
Neutral Fraction of Hydrogen in the Intergalactic Medium Surrounding High-Redshift Gamma-Ray Burst 210905A
H. M. Fausey, S. Vejlgaard, A. J. van der Horst +22
The Epoch of Reionization (EoR) is a key period of cosmological history in which the intergalactic medium (IGM) underwent a major phase change from being neutral to almost complete…
