EP260321a/SN 2026gzf: The Faintest Shock Breakout Associated with a Broad-Lined Supernova
Brendan O'Connor, Xander J. Hall, Malte Busmann +33
The explosion of a star is first marked by the shock wave breaking out of the stellar surface, producing a burst of ultraviolet and X-ray radiation. These events are observationall…
Comprehensive X-ray Observations of the Exceptional Ultra-long X-ray and Gamma-ray Transient GRB 250702B with Swift, NuSTAR, and Chandra: Insights from the X-ray Afterglow Properties
Brendan O'Connor, Ramandeep Gill, James DeLaunay +22
GRB 250702B is an exceptional transient that produced multiple episodes of luminous gamma-ray radiation lasting for ks, placing it among the class of ultra-long gamma-ray bur…
The redshift distribution of Einstein Probe transients supports their relation to gamma-ray bursts
Brendan O'Connor, Paz Beniamini, Eleonora Troja +9
The launch of the \textit{Einstein Probe} unleashed a new era of high-energy transient discovery in the largely unexplored soft X-ray band. The \textit{Einstein Probe} has detected…
The curious case of EP241021a: Unraveling the mystery of its exceptional rebrightening
Malte Busmann, Brendan O'Connor, Julian Sommer +19
Fast X-ray Transients (FXTs) are a rare and poorly understood phenomenon with a variety of possible progenitors. The launch of the Einstein Probe (EP) mission has facilitated a rap…
