SN 2025fhm: A central-engine powered Ic-BL supernova associated with X-ray transient EP250304a
Cui-Ying Song, Nan Jiang, Xiaofeng Wang +32
We present X-ray, optical, and radio follow-up observations of EP250304a, an extragalactic fast X-ray transient (EFXT) discovered by the Einstein Probe. Its X-ray light curve exhib…
SN 2021pfs: A Type Ia Supernova Likely Affected by Progenitor Metallicity, as Revealed by Comparison with Its Twin Counterpart
Abdusamatjan Iskandar, Xiaofeng Wang, Ali Esamdin +16
We present extensive photometric and spectroscopic observations of the normal type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) 2021pfs, which occurred in the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 5427 at a redshift 0.0…
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…
An Archival Optical Counterpart Search for Extragalactic Fast X-Ray Transients Discovered by Einstein Probe
Run-Duo Liang, Wen-Xiong Li, Liang-Duan Liu +50
Extragalactic fast X-ray transients (eFXTs) represent a rapidly growing class of high-energy phenomena, whose physical origins remain poorly understood. With its wide-field, sensit…
SN 2024abfl: A Low-Luminosity Type IIP Supernova in NGC 2146 from a Low-Mass Red Supergiant Progenitor
Xiaohan Chen, Ning-Chen Sun, Qiang Xi +44
Type IIP supernovae (SNe IIP) exhibit a significant diversity in their explosion properties, yet the physical mechanisms driving this diversity remain unknown. In this work, we pre…
Detection of disk-jet co-precession in a tidal disruption event
Yanan Wang, Zikun Lin, Linhui Wu +46
Theories and simulations predict that intense spacetime curvature near black holes bends the trajectories of light and matter, driving disk and jet precession under relativistic to…
SN 2025coe: A Multiple-Peaked Calcium-Strong Transient from A White-Dwarf Progenitor
Chun Chen, Ning-Chen Sun, Qiang Xi +25
SN 2025coe is a calcium-strong transient located at an extremely large projected offset 39.3 kpc from the center of its host, the nearby early-type galaxy NGC 3277 at a dista…
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…
SN 2024aecx: a fast-evolving Type IIb supernova with a prominent shock-cooling peak
Qiang Xi, Ning-Chen Sun, David Aguado +36
SN 2024aecx is a nearby (11 Mpc) Type IIb SN discovered within 1 d after explosion. In this paper we report high-cadence photometric (typically 0.51 day) and spec…
IGR J17091-3624: Newly Formed Periodic Dips and Multiwavelength Activity During the 2025 Outburst
Zikun Lin, Yanan Wang, Shuyuan Wei +15
The black hole low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) candidate IGR J17091-3624 experienced a hard-state-only outburst in 2025. In this paper, we show that IXPE detected a series of intermit…
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…
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…
The Mini-SiTian Array: the mini-SiTian Realtime Image Processing pipeline (STRIP)
Hongrui Gu, Yang Huang, Yongkang Sun +10
This paper provides a comprehensive introduction to the Mini-SiTian Real-Time Image Processing pipeline (STRIP) and evaluates its operational performance. The STRIP pipeline is spe…
Discovery of a variable yellow supergiant progenitor for the Type IIb SN 2024abfo
