EP251023a: A fast X-ray transient featuring a magnetar-powered optical internal plateau followed by a steep decay

Shuai-Qing Jiang, Dong Xu, Wei-Hua Lei +33

EP251023a is an extragalactic fast X-ray transient (eFXT) detected solely by EP without a gamma-ray counterpart. The prompt emission consists of a main emission with a duration $T_…

GRB 250424A: A Case Study of Energy Injection with Multiwavelength Observations

Yifang Liang, Yun Wang, WeiKang Zheng +61

We present a comprehensive multiwavelength analysis of the long-duration gamma-ray burst (GRB) 250424A. Our dataset spans from the prompt gamma-ray emission to late-time optical mo…

EP250827b/SN 2025wkm: An X-ray Flash-Supernova Powered by a Central Engine and Circumstellar Interaction

Gokul P. Srinivasaragavan, Dongyue Li, Xander J. Hall +100

We present the discovery of EP250827b/SN 2025wkm, an X-ray Flash (XRF) discovered by the Einstein Probe (EP), accompanied by a broad-line Type Ic supernova (SN Ic-BL) at $z = 0.119…

EP241217a: a likely Type II GRB with an achromatic bump at z = 4.59

Hao Zhou, Jia Ren, Chen-Wei Wang +22

EP241217a is an X-ray transient detected by the Einstein Probe (EP) lasting for about 100 seconds and without accompanying -ray detection. The optical spectroscopy reveals the…

EP250207b is not a collapsar fast X-ray transient. Is it due to a compact object merger?

P. G. Jonker, A. J. Levan, Xing Liu +41

Fast X-ray Transients (FXTs) are short-lived extra-galactic X-ray sources. Recent progress through multi-wavelength follow-up of Einstein Probe discovered FXTs has shown that sever…

EP241021a: a months-duration X-ray transient with luminous optical and radio emission

Shu Xinwen, Yang Lei, Yang Haonan +82

We present the discovery of a peculiar X-ray transient, EP241021a, by the Einstein Probe (EP) mission, and the results from multiwavelength follow-up observations. The transient wa…
