The ultra-fast afterglow of GRB 260226A
Biswajit Banerjee, Alessio Mei, Annarita Ierardi +13
Long-duration gamma-ray bursts are typically powered by relativistic jets launched after the core collapse of some rapidly rotating massive stars. Internal dissipation releases par…
Toward decision-aware AI for LSST-scale time-domain astronomy
C. R. Bom, A. Mahabal, F. Bianco +27
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) will generate approximately (10^7) alerts per night, pushing time-domain astronomy beyond pipelines that trea…
ENGRAVE follow-up of a type IIb supernova spatially coincident with the sub-threshold gravitational wave trigger S250818k
K. Ackley, M. T. Botticella, A. Boye +54
The candidate gravitational wave (GW) event S250818k was one of only three non-retracted LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA public alerts issued during the fourth observing run of the network (O4) w…
Insights from GRBs for optical follow-up of gravitational wave counterparts
Kruthi Krishna, Andrew Levan, Samaya Nissanke +9
Identifying the electromagnetic counterparts to gravitational wave sources is vital to enabling the myriad of investigations possible with multimessenger astronomy. However, locati…
Continuous Wide-Field Optical Monitoring for Very Early-Phase Transient Discovery
Massimo Della Valle, Maria Teresa Botticella, Enrico Cappellaro +40
The study of transient phenomena in a multimessenger context is expected to remain a major pillar of astrophysical discovery in the decades ahead. Supernovae, Kilonovae, Black-Hole…
GRBs and Relativistic Transients in the 2040s
Nikhil Sarin, Andrew Levan, Nial Tanvir +9
Relativistic transients such as gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), jetted tidal disruption events, luminous fast blue optical transients, and fast X-ray transients, represent the brightest e…
An Extremely-High Velocity Outflow in SMSS J2157-3602, the most luminous quasar in the first 1.3 Gyr
Giustina Vietri, Paola Rodriguez Hidalgo, Amy Rankine +16
We report the discovery of an extremely high-velocity outflow (EHVO) in the most luminous ( 2.29 10 erg/s) QSO, SMSS J2157-3602, at z=4.692. Comb…
On the Binary Nature of the Progenitor of SN2015ap: Insights from Its Light Curve and Spectral Evolution
Fabio Ragosta, Giulia Illiano, Andrea Simongini +3
Stripped-envelope supernovae (SESNe) display a wide range of photometric and spectroscopic behaviours, often reflecting complex progenitor evolution. SN~2015ap is a type Ib event l…
The Science of the Einstein Telescope
Adrian Abac, Raul Abramo, Simone Albanesi +485
Einstein Telescope (ET) is the European project for a gravitational-wave (GW) observatory of third-generation. In this paper we present a comprehensive discussion of its science ob…
Swift-BAT GUANO follow-up of gravitational-wave triggers in the third LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observing run
Gayathri Raman, Samuele Ronchini, James Delaunay +1819
We present results from a search for X-ray/gamma-ray counterparts of gravitational-wave (GW) candidates from the third observing run (O3) of the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) network usin…
Fast X-ray/IR observations of the black hole transient Swift~J1753.5--0127: from an IR lead to a very long jet lag
Alberto Ulgiati, Federico Maria Vincentelli, Piergiorgio Casella +16
We report on two epochs of simultaneous near-infrared (IR) and X-ray observations with a sub-second time resolution of the low mass X-ray binary black hole candidate Swift J1753.5-…
The Lunar Gravitational-wave Antenna: Mission Studies and Science Case
Parameswaran Ajith, Pau Amaro Seoane, Manuel Arca Sedda +83
The Lunar Gravitational-wave Antenna (LGWA) is a proposed array of next-generation inertial sensors to monitor the response of the Moon to gravitational waves (GWs). Given the size…
Kilonova parameters estimation with LSST at Vera C. Rubin Observatory
Fabio Ragosta, Tomas Ahumada, Silvia Piranomonte +4
The up-coming Vera Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) opens a new opportunity to rapidly survey the southern Sky at optical wavelenghts (\ie ugrizy bands).…
Panning for gold, but finding helium: discovery of the ultra-stripped supernova SN2019wxt from gravitational-wave follow-up observations
I. Agudo, L. Amati, T. An +96
