Radio Observations of the Unusual Tidal Disruption Event AT 2022wtn: a Fast and Highly Energetic Outflow

Gavin Farley, Tanmoy Laskar, Noah Franz +11

We present multi-epoch, multi-frequency radio observations of the tidal disruption event (TDE) AT 2022wtn, obtained with the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) and Giant Metrewa…

VLA Observations Confirm AT 2023mfm as an Off-nuclear Tidal Disruption Event

Wenkai Li, Collin T. Christy, Kate D. Alexander +15

We report new radio observations of the tidal disruption event (TDE) AT 2023mfm, which we identified as a high-confidence candidate in a systematic search for off-nuclear TDEs. Hig…

Rapid-response 1.3 mm Observations of GRB 260127A with the Submillimeter Array

Garrett K. Keating, Tanmoy Laskar, Anna Y. Q. Ho +9

We present the results from rapid-response 1.3 mm observations of GRB 260127A using the Submillimeter Array (SMA). SMA arrived on-source 12.6 minutes after the initial detection by…

First Detection of Faraday Rotation in a Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglow: Low Polarization and High Rotation Measure in GRB 260310A Reveal Jet Magnetic Structure and Environment

Collin T. Christy, Tanmoy Laskar, Kate D. Alexander +10

We report the detection of linear polarization in the radio afterglow of GRB 260310A, representing the first centimeter-wavelength polarization detection of a gamma-ray burst (GRB)…

VLBI Observations of SN 2012au Reveal a Compact Radio Source a Decade Post Explosion

Mattias Lazda, Kenzie Nimmo, Maria R. Drout +13

Three leading models have been put forth to justify the observed radio re-brightening associated with stripped-envelope supernovae (SESNe) years post-explosion: radiation from an e…

The Multi-Wavelength Context of Delayed Radio Emission in TDEs: Evidence for Accretion-Driven Outflows

Kate D. Alexander, Raffaella Margutti, Sebastian Gomez +20

Recent observations presented in Cendes et al. (2024a) show that optically selected tidal disruption events (TDEs) commonly produce delayed radio emission that can peak years post-…
