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…
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…
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…
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…
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-…
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
We present the results from multi-wavelength observations of a transient discovered during the follow-up of S191213g, a gravitational wave (GW) event reported by the LIGO-Virgo Col…
Evidence for Dust Destruction from the Early-time Colour Change of GRB 120119A
Adam N. Morgan, D. A. Perley, S. B. Cenko +16
We present broadband observations and analysis of Swift gamma-ray burst (GRB) 120119A. Our early-time afterglow detections began under 15 s after the burst in the host frame (redsh…
