EP250302a: violent shell collision in a soft-X-ray-selected GRB-like transient

Shao-Yu Fu, Cui-Yuan Dai, Ai-Ling Wang +57

The Einstein Probe opens a previously unexplored soft X-ray window onto gamma-ray bursts, filling a critical observational gap in the soft X-ray coverage of their prompt emission.…

Early-time optical spectral shape measurements of GRB 200925B

Zhavlonbek Abdullayev, Toktarkhan Komesh, Bruce Grossan +5

Optical broad-band spectral shape measurements of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are typically made starting an hour or more after the trigger event. With our automated, rapid-response sy…

On-sky silicon photomultiplier detector performance measurements for millisecond to sub-microsecond optical source variability studies

Albert Wai Kit Lau, Mehdi Shafiee, George F. Smoot +3

In our Ultra-Fast Astronomy (UFA) program, we aim to improve measurements of variability of astronomical targets on millisecond and shorter time scales. In this work, we present in…
