Optical Study of TRAPUM Pulsars and Modelling of the Redbacks: PSR J10364353 and PSR J18036707
A. Phosrisom, R. P. Breton, C. J. Clark +12
The Transients and Pulsars with MeerKAT (TRAPUM) project discovered eight binary millisecond pulsars in its first shallow \textit{L}-band survey of unidentified \textit{Fermi} -…
Unveiling the nature of the Einstein Probe transient EP 241021a
J. Quirola-Vásquez, P. G. Jonker, A. J. Levan +23
We present a multi-wavelength analysis of the fast X-ray transient EP 241021a, discovered by the Wide-field X-ray Telescope aboard the \emph{Einstein Probe} satellite on 2024 Octob…
SN 2024cld: unveiling the complex mass-loss histories of evolved supergiant progenitors to core collapse supernovae
T. L. Killestein, M. Pursiainen, R. Kotak +52
Pre-explosion mass loss in supernova (SN) progenitors is a crucial unknown factor in stellar evolution, yet has been illuminated recently by the diverse zoo of interacting transien…
Constraints on an optical counterpart for the long-period radio transient GPM J1839-10
Ingrid Pelisoli, A. J. Brown, N. Castro Segura +14
Long period radio transients (LPTs) are periodic radio sources showing pulsed emission on timescales from minutes to hours. The underlying sources behind this emission are currentl…
Discovery and Analysis of Afterglows from Poorly Localised GRBs with the Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO) All-sky Survey
Amit Kumar, B. P. Gompertz, B. Schneider +86
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), particularly those detected by wide-field instruments such as the Fermi/GBM, pose a challenge for optical follow-up due to their large initial localisation…
GRB 241105A: A test case for GRB classification and rapid r-process nucleosynthesis channels
Dimple, B. P. Gompertz, A. J. Levan +85
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) offer a powerful window to probe the progenitor systems responsible for the formation of heavy elements through the rapid neutron capture (r-) process, than…
SN 2024bfu, SN 2025qe, and the early light curves of type Iax supernovae
M. R. Magee, T. L. Killestein, M. Pursiainen +39
Type Iax supernovae (SNe Iax) are one of the most common subclasses of thermonuclear supernova and yet their sample size, particularly those observed shortly after explosion, remai…
A targeted search for binary white dwarf pulsars using Gaia and WISE
Ingrid Pelisoli, T. R. Marsh, G. Tovmassian +24
After its discovery in 2016, the white dwarf binary AR Scorpii (AR Sco) remained for several years the only white dwarf system to show pulsed radio emission associated with a fast-…
The infrared counterpart and proper motion of magnetar SGR0501+4516
A. A. Chrimes, A. J. Levan, J. D. Lyman +19
Soft gamma repeaters (SGRs) are highly magnetised neutron stars (magnetars) notable for their gamma-ray and X-ray outbursts. In this paper, we use near-infrared (NIR) imaging of SG…
Sub-second optical/near-infrared quasi-periodic oscillations from the black hole X-ray transient Swift J1727.8-1613
F. M. Vincentelli, T. Shahbaz, P. Casella +14
We report on the detection of optical/near-infrared (O-IR) quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) from the black hole X-ray transient Swift J1727.8-1613. We obtained three X-ray and O-…
Constraints on optical and near-infrared variability in the localisation of the long-period radio transient GLEAM-X J1627-52
J. D. Lyman, V. S. Dhillon, S. Kamann +5
GLEAM-X J1627-52 was discovered as a periodic (~18 min) radio signal over a duration of three months in 2018. It is an enigmatic example of a growing population of 'long-period rad…
Two almost planetary mass survivors of common envelope evolution
S. G. Parsons, A. J. Brown, S. L. Casewell +19
White dwarfs are often found in close binaries with stellar or even substellar companions. It is generally thought that these compact binaries form via common envelope evolution, t…
GOTO065054+593624: a 8.5 mag amplitude dwarf nova identified in real time via Kilonova Seekers
T. L. Killestein, G. Ramsay, M. Kennedy +62
Dwarf novae are astrophysical laboratories for probing the nature of accretion, binary mass transfer, and binary evolution -- yet their diverse observational characteristics contin…
