Constraining inhomogeneities and asymmetries in SNe, FBOTs, and other high-energy transients from unresolved radio observations

Fabio De Colle, Rosa L. Becerra, Lizeth A. Meza +7

Synchrotron emission in high-energy transients is produced by relativistic electrons accelerated by shocks. As high-energy transients are often unresolved even on angular scales pr…
