Unravelling the Nature of AT 2025abao: From Precursor to Final Fate

Zhuo Chen, Yingzhen Cui, Tianshu Wu +9

Luminous red novae (LRNe) are potential signatures of common envelope evolution (CEE), a critical yet poorly understood phase in compact binary formation. AT 2025abao, an LRN in th…

X-rays breaking out of pre-explosion ejecta mark a supernova's first light

Weimin Yuan, Qiu-Ju Huang, Jin-Ping Zhu +130

Massive stars die as core-collapse supernovae, whose optical light emerges days after the implosion. Theory predicts that the initial collapse-driven shock, upon breaking through t…

Search for L4 Earth Trojan asteroids with the 2.5-meter Wide Field Survey Telescope

Junqiang Lu, Lulu Fan, Shaohan Wang +16

Earth Trojan asteroids (ETAs) are a mysterious population, and dynamically stable ETAs, if primordial, could be "living fossils" of the early solar system. To date, there are only…

Illuminating the Mass Gap Through Deep Optical Constraint on a Neutron Star Merger Candidate S250206dm

Zhengyan Liu, Zelin Xu, Ji-an Jiang +35

The gravitational wave (GW) event S250206dm, as the first well-localized neutron star merger candidate potentially located in the mass gap, presented a unique opportunity to probe…
