A Shell Collision Scenario for EP251222b/GRB 251222A: Connecting Prompt Emission and Double-Peaked Afterglow
Run Shi, Di Xiao, Brajesh Kumar +23
GRB 251222A is a long-duration gamma-ray burst at a spectroscopic redshift of . It was detected by the EP as the soft X-ray transient EP251222b before and during the gamma…
Rapid Variability and Broadband Spectral Modeling in the Flaring Activity of BL Lacertae
Xin Chang, Dingrong Xiong, Chenxu Liu +17
We report a multi-wavelength study of two flaring episodes of the blazar BL Lacertae during MJD 60500-60800 (9 July 2024 - 5 May 2025). The source reached a daily-averaged -ray…
SN 2025aico: Early observations of a faint Type IIb supernova with a low-mass envelope
J. -W. Zhao, A. Pastorello, B. Kumar +45
We aimed to investigate the physical properties and the underlying explosion mechanisms of the Type IIb SN 2025aico. Through a comprehensive analysis of early-phase optical light c…
The Intermediate-Mass Black Hole Reverberation Mapping Project: Stable Optical Continuum Lags of an IMBH in the Dwarf Galaxy NGC 4395 Over Years
Yu Pan, Hengxiao Guo, Chenxu Liu +15
NGC 4395 is a nearby dwarf spiral galaxy hosting an active galactic nucleus (AGN) powered by an intermediate-mass black hole (IMBH, --). Re…
Segmentation and Celestial Mapping of Unobservable Regions in Nighttime All-sky Images for the Mephisto Observations
Jian Cui, Guo-Wang Du, Xin-Zhong Er +5
Accurate identification of unobservable regions in nighttime is essential for autonomous scheduling and data quality control in observations.Traditional methods-such as infrared se…
Spectral Hardening Reveals Afterglow Emergence in Long-Duration Fast X-ray Transients: A Case Study of GRB 250404A/EP250404a
Yi-Han Iris Yin, Yuan Fang, Bin-Bin Zhang +56
The prompt emission and afterglow phases of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been extensively studied, yet the transition between these two phases remains inadequately characterized du…
SN 2024aecx: A double-peaked rapidly evolving Type IIb supernova at 11 Mpc
Xingzhu Zou, Brajesh Kumar, Rishabh Singh Teja +28
We present the results of low-resolution spectroscopic and densely sampled multi-band photometric follow-up of supernova (SN) 2024aecx. The SN was discovered in the spiral galaxy N…
Multiwavelength Analysis of GRB 250101A: From Gamma-ray Prompt Emission to Optical Afterglow
Guowang Du, Yehao Cheng, Yuan-Pei Yang +15
The interaction between the relativistic jet and the circumburst medium produces a multiwavelength afterglow of a gamma-ray burst (GRBs). In this work, we present multiwavelength p…
Simultaneous Multiband Photometry of the Early Optical Afterglow of GRB 240825A with Mephisto
Yehao Cheng, Yu Pan, Yuan-Pei Yang +19
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most luminous transients in the universe. The interaction of the relativistic jet with the circumburst medium produces an afterglow and generates mu…
Black hole mass and optical radiation mechanism of the tidal disruption event AT 2023clx
Shiyan Zhong, Xian Xu, Xinlei Chen +5
We present the optical light curves of the tidal disruption event (TDE) AT 2023clx in the declining phase, observed with Mephisto. Combining our light curve with the ASAS-SN and AT…
Multiband Simultaneous Photometry of Type II SN 2023ixf with Mephisto and the Twin 50-cm Telescopes
Yuan-Pei Yang, Xiangkun Liu, Yu Pan +13
SN 2023ixf, recently reported in the nearby galaxy M101 at a distance of , was one of the closest and brightest core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) in the last decade.…
Early-phase simultaneous multiband observations of the Type II supernova SN 2024ggi with Mephisto
Xinlei Chen, Brajesh Kumar, Xinzhong Er +24
We present early-phase good-cadence (hour-to-day) simultaneous multiband ( and bands) imaging of the nearby supernova SN~2024ggi, which exploded in the nearby galaxy, NG…
