A search for successful and choked jets in nearby broad-lined Type Ic supernovae
Tanner O'Dwyer, Alessandra Corsi, Sheng Yang +16
The observational link between long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and broad-lined stripped-envelope core-collapse supernovae (SNe Ic-BL) is well established. Significant progress has bee…
A New FU Orionis Accretion Outburst in the W5 HII Region
Lynne A. Hillenbrand, Matthew J. Graham, Mansi M. Kasliwal +9
We announce a recently detected outburst that is currently only a few months old, and probably of FU Orionis type. The progenitor to the outburst was an emission-line, flat-spectru…
ZTF25abjmnps (AT2025ulz) and S250818k: A Candidate Superkilonova from a Sub-threshold Sub-Solar Gravitational Wave Trigger
Mansi M. Kasliwal, Tomas Ahumada, Robert Stein +61
On August 18, 2025, the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration reported gravitational waves from a sub-threshold binary neutron star merger. If astrophysical, this event would have a surpr…
Discovery of SN 2025wny: a Strongly Gravitationally Lensed Superluminous Supernova at z = 2.01
Joel Johansson, Daniel A. Perley, Ariel Goobar +31
We present the discovery of SN 2025wny (ZTF25abnjznp/GOTO25gtq) and spectroscopic classification of this event as the first gravitationally lensed Type I superluminous supernovae (…
SN 2023uqf: An Interacting Supernova Coincident with a High-Energy Neutrino
Robert Stein, Anna Y. Q. Ho, Anjasha Gangopadhyay +30
Astrophysical high-energy (TeV-PeV) neutrinos were first discovered in 2013, but their origin remains largely unknown. Here we present SN 2023uqf, a supernova found in coincidence…
A real-time search for Type Ia Supernovae with late-time CSM interaction in ZTF
Jacco H. Terwel, Kate Maguire, Seán J. Brennan +20
The nature of Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) progenitor systems and the mechanisms that lead up to their explosions are still widely debated. In rare cases the SN ejecta interact with c…
A half-ring of ionized circumstellar material trapped in the magnetosphere of a white dwarf merger remnant
Andrei A. Cristea, Ilaria Caiazzo, Tim Cunningham +31
Many white dwarfs are observed in compact double white dwarf binaries and, through the emission of gravitational waves, a large fraction are destined to merge. The merger remnants…
Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS: discovery and physical description
Bryce T. Bolin, Matthew Belyakov, Christoffer Fremling +18
We describe the physical characteristics of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, discovered on 2025 July 1 by the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System. The comet has eccentricity,…
Palomar and Apache Point Spectrophotometry of Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS
Matthew Belyakov, Christoffer Fremling, Matthew J. Graham +7
On July 1st 2025 the third interstellar object, 3I/ATLAS or C/2025 N1 (ATLAS), was discovered, with an eccentricity of and perihelion of au. We…
Twin peaks: SN 2021uvy and SN 2022hgk in the landscape of double-peaked stripped envelope supernovae
Yashvi Sharma, Jesper Sollerman, William Meynardie +25
In recent years, a class of stripped-envelope supernovae (SESNe) showing two distinct light-curve peaks has emerged, where the first peak cannot be attributed to shock cooling emis…
A luminous and hot infrared through X-ray transient at a 5 kpc offset from a dwarf galaxy
Jean J. Somalwar, Vikram Ravi, Raffaella Margutti +20
We are searching for hot, constant-color, offset optical flares in the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) data stream that are from any galaxy in public imaging data from th…
Cryoscope: A Cryogenic Infrared Survey Telescope in Antarctica
Mansi M. Kasliwal, Nicholas Earley, Roger Smith +58
We present Cryoscope--a new 50 deg field-of-view, 1.2 m aperture, survey telescope to be located at Dome C, Antarctica. Cryoscope has an innovative optical-thermal d…
Multi-Wavelength Analysis of AT 2023sva: a Luminous Orphan Afterglow With Evidence for a Structured Jet
Gokul P. Srinivasaragavan, Daniel A. Perley, Anna Y. Q. Ho +50
We present multi-wavelength analysis of ZTF23abelseb (AT 2023sva), an optically discovered fast-fading ( mag in days), luminous ( mag) and…
