AT 2024qfm: a luminous fast blue optical transient at a redshift of z = 0.2267 identified by Lasair-ZTF
M. Fulton, S. J. Smartt, S. Srivastav +20
Luminous fast blue optical transients (LFBOTs) emit from x-ray to radio wavelengths, epitomised by the discovery of AT 2018cow in a host galaxy at 65 Mpc. In the following eight ye…
Peak 'Nebular' Emission and Early Flux Excesses in Ca-strong Supernovae
C. -G. Touchard-Paxton, K. Maguire, C. Frohmaier +27
Calcium-strong supernovae (Ca-strong SNe) are a class of thermonuclear transient characterised by rapid photometric evolution (rise times of <= 16 d) and nebular-phase spectra domi…
First Results from the LSST Shadow Survey: The Restless Luminous Blue Variable AT2017des in the Virgo-Cluster Galaxy, NGC4532
Conor L. Ransome, Bhagya M. Subrayan, David J. Sand +66
The Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) will start in late-summer 2026, revolutionizing transient astronomy. Here, we present the Dark Energy Camera (DECam) Shadow Survey, which…
The flash-ionised SN Ibn 2025kzr: H-free CSM formed during a precursor outburst 55 days prior to explosion
S. de Wet, G. Leloudas, D. A. H. Buckley +33
Type Ibn supernovae (SNe) are a class of interacting SNe characterised by narrow helium lines in their spectra. We present an extensive observational dataset of the Type Ibn SN 202…
Decadal pre-explosion activity and circumstellar interaction in a supernova
Ting-Wan Chen, Amar Aryan, Sheng Yang +52
When a massive star explodes as a supernova, crucial information about its immediate environment is lost within hours. Here we report rapid optical observations from Lulin Observat…
Early Multiwavelength Observations of AT 2026fgk: The Luminous Afterglow to Sub-luminous GRB 260310A, Identified Independently of a Gamma-ray Trigger
K. -R. Hinds, A. Y. Q. Ho, Y. Wagh +103
The origins of sub-luminous (\,erg\,s) gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) associated with broad-lined Type~Ic supernovae (Ic-BL SNe) are poorly u…
Probing a new subclass of llGRB-SN transients: Insights from EP250304a and its associated supernova
L. Cotter, A. Martin-Carrillo, R. A. J. Eyles-Ferris +62
With the advent of the Einstein Probe (EP) mission, we are entering a new era in the study of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), enabling the detection of faint, low-luminosity transients th…
A Hybrid Framework for Kilonova Anomaly Detection using Single-Epoch SEDs from the 7-Dimensional Telescope
Gregory S. H. Paek, Myungshin Im, Seo-Won Chang +2
We develop a hybrid framework to identify kilonovae (KNe), using single-epoch, medium-band spectral energy distributions from the 7-Dimensional Telescope (7DT). The framework integ…
The Wandering Supermassive Black Hole Powering the off-nuclear TDE AT2024tvd
M. Guolo, A. Mummery, S. van Velzen +11
We present an analysis of the spectral energy distribution (SED) of the off-nuclear tidal disruption event (TDE) AT2024tvd during its late-time plateau phase, combining X-ray spect…
BlastBerries: How Supernovae Affect Lyman Continuum Escape Fractions and Ionizing Photon Production in Local Analogs of High-Redshift Galaxies
Miranda Y. Kong, David O. Jones, Nicole E. Drakos +16
While compact, star-forming galaxies are believed to play a key role in cosmic reionization, the physical mechanisms enabling the escape of ionizing photons through the galactic in…
