The ZTF-ULTRASAT experiment: Characterizing the non-transients in ULTRASAT's high cadence survey

Daniel Warshofsky, Michael W. Coughlin, Theophile Jegou Du Laz +16

The forthcoming launch of the Ultraviolet Transient Astronomy Satellite (ULTRASAT) will transform our understanding of the transient ultraviolet sky by increasing our ability to id…

A Natural Telescope: Discovery of the Strongly Lensed Type II SN 2025mkn at

Cameron Lemon, Ariel Goobar, Joel Johansson +90

We present the discovery of SN 2025mkn, a gravitationally lensed Type II supernova. First detected as a blue transient in ZTF, 0.83 from a elliptical gala…

AT2024lhc and AT2024kmq in the landscape of featureless tidal disruption events

Yuhan Yao, Ryan Chornock, Andrew Mummery +39

We study AT2024kmq and AT2024lhc, two tidal disruption events (TDEs) with blue featureless spectra associated with high-mass black holes (). Both even…

Multiwavelength Analysis of Six Luminous Fast Blue Optical Transients

Cassie Sevilla, Anna Y. Q. Ho, Nayana A. J. +43

We present multiwavelength observations and analysis of six luminous fast blue optical transients (LFBOTs) discovered in Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) survey data. We identified…

An Extremely Luminous Flare Recorded from a Supermassive Black Hole

Matthew J. Graham, Barry McKernan, K. E. Saavik Ford +17

Since their discovery more than 60 years ago, accreting supermassive black holes in active galactic nuclei (AGN) were recognized as highly variable sources, requiring an extremely…

SN 2023uqf: An Interacting Supernova Coincident with a High-Energy Neutrino

Robert Stein, Anna Y. Q. Ho, Anjasha Gangopadhyay +30

Astrophysical high-energy (TeV-PeV) neutrinos were first discovered in 2013, but their origin remains largely unknown. Here we present SN 2023uqf, a supernova found in coincidence…

A Massive Black Hole 0.8 kpc from the Host Nucleus Revealed by the Offset Tidal Disruption Event AT2024tvd

Yuhan Yao, Ryan Chornock, Charlotte Ward +31

Tidal disruption events (TDEs) that are spatially offset from the nuclei of their host galaxies offer a new probe of massive black hole (MBH) wanderers, binaries, triples, and reco…

Sub-relativistic Outflow and Hours-Timescale Large-amplitude X-ray Dips during Super-Eddington Accretion onto a Low-mass Massive Black Hole in the Tidal Disruption Event AT2022lri

Yuhan Yao, Muryel Guolo, Francesco Tombesi +32

We present the tidal disruption event (TDE) AT2022lri, hosted in a nearby ( Mpc) quiescent galaxy with a low-mass massive black hole ($10^4\,M_\odot < M_{\rm BH} < 10…

GraL spectroscopic identification of multiply imaged quasars

Priyanka Jalan, Vibhore Negi, Jean Surdej +24

Gravitational lensing is proven to be one of the most efficient tools for studying the Universe. The spectral confirmation of such sources requires extensive calibration. This pape…

The Zwicky Transient Facility phase I sample of hydrogen-rich superluminous supernovae without strong narrow emission lines

Tuomas Kangas, Lin Yan, Steve Schulze +19

We present a sample of 14 hydrogen-rich superluminous supernovae (SLSNe II) from the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) between 2018 and 2020. We include all classified SLSNe with pea…
