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…

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…

The radio flare and multi-wavelength afterglow of the short GRB 231117A: energy injection from a violent shell collision

G. E. Anderson, G. P. Lamb, B. P. Gompertz +64

We present the early radio detection and multi-wavelength modeling of the short gamma-ray burst (GRB) 231117A at redshift . The Australia Telescope Compact Array automatic…

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…

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…
