GRB 250702B: Discovery of a Gamma-Ray Burst from a Black Hole Falling into a Star

Eliza Neights, Eric Burns, Chris L. Fryer +52

Gamma-ray bursts are the most luminous electromagnetic events in the universe. Their prompt gamma-ray emission has typical durations between a fraction of a second and several minu…

GRB 241105A: A test case for GRB classification and rapid r-process nucleosynthesis channels

Dimple, B. P. Gompertz, A. J. Levan +85

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) offer a powerful window to probe the progenitor systems responsible for the formation of heavy elements through the rapid neutron capture (r-) process, than…

Prompt Periodicity in the GRB 211211A Precursor: Black-hole or magnetar engine?

Gavin P. Lamb, Thomas Baxter, Conor M. B. Omand +18

The merger origin long GRB 211211A was a class (re-)defining event. A precursor was identified with a s separation from the main burst, as well as a claimed candidate quas…

Joint Radiative and Kinematic Modelling of X-ray Binary Ejecta: Energy Estimate and Reverse Shock Detection

A. J. Cooper, J. H. Matthews, F. Carotenuto +6

Black hole X-ray binaries in outburst launch discrete, large-scale jet ejections which can propagate to parsec scales. The kinematics of these ejecta appear to be well described by…
