First joint absorption and T-based metallicity measured in a GRB host galaxy at using JWST/NIRSpec

Anne Inkenhaag, Patricia Schady, Phil Wiseman +20

We present the first gamma-ray burst (GRB) host galaxy with a measured absorption line and electron temperature (T) based metallicity, using the temperature sensitive [OIII]…

The host of GRB 171205A in 3D -- A resolved multiwavelength study of a rare grand-design spiral GRB host

C. C. Thöne, A. de Ugarte Postigo, L. Izzo +17

Long GRB hosts at z<1 are usually low-mass, low metallicity star-forming galaxies. Here we present the until now most detailed, spatially resolved study of the host of GRB 171205A,…

Testing particle acceleration in blazar jets with continuous high-cadence optical polarization observations

Ioannis Liodakis, Sebastian Kiehlmann, Alan P. Marscher +44

Variability can be the pathway to understanding the physical processes in astrophysical jets, however, the high-cadence observations required to test particle acceleration models a…

The fast X-ray transient EP240315a: a z ~ 5 gamma-ray burst in a Lyman continuum leaking galaxy

Andrew J. Levan, Peter G. Jonker, Andrea Saccardi +73

The nature of the minute-to-hour long Fast X-ray Transients (FXTs) localised by telescopes such as Chandra, Swift, and XMM-Newton remains mysterious, with numerous models suggested…

A candidate coherent radio flash following a neutron star merger

A. Rowlinson, I. de Ruiter, R. L. C. Starling +10

In this paper, we present rapid follow-up observations of the short GRB 201006A, consistent with being a compact binary merger, using the LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR). We have detec…

Searching for ejected supernova companions in the era of precise proper motion and radial velocity measurements

A. A. Chrimes, A. J. Levan, J. J. Eldridge +7

The majority of massive stars are born in binaries, and most unbind upon the first supernova. With precise proper motion surveys such as Gaia, it is possible to trace back the moti…
