ZTF25abjmnps (AT2025ulz) and S250818k: A Candidate Superkilonova from a Sub-threshold Sub-Solar Gravitational Wave Trigger
Mansi M. Kasliwal, Tomas Ahumada, Robert Stein +61
On August 18, 2025, the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration reported gravitational waves from a sub-threshold binary neutron star merger. If astrophysical, this event would have a surpr…
AT2025ulz and S250818k: Investigating early time observations of a subsolar mass gravitational-wave binary neutron star merger candidate
Xander J. Hall, Malte Busmann, Hauke Koehn +32
Over the past LIGO--Virgo--KAGRA (LVK) observing runs, it has become increasingly clear that identifying the next electromagnetic counterparts to gravitational-wave (GW) neutron st…
AT2025ulz and S250818k: Leveraging DESI spectroscopy in the hunt for a kilonova associated with a sub-solar mass gravitational wave candidate
Xander J. Hall, Antonella Palmese, Brendan O'Connor +47
On August 18th, 2025, the LIGO--Virgo--KAGRA collaboration reported a sub-threshold gravitational wave candidate detection consistent with a sub-solar-mass neutron star merger, den…
Discovery of SN 2025wny: a Strongly Gravitationally Lensed Superluminous Supernova at z = 2.01
Joel Johansson, Daniel A. Perley, Ariel Goobar +31
We present the discovery of SN 2025wny (ZTF25abnjznp/GOTO25gtq) and spectroscopic classification of this event as the first gravitationally lensed Type I superluminous supernovae (…
Comprehensive X-ray Observations of the Exceptional Ultra-long X-ray and Gamma-ray Transient GRB 250702B with Swift, NuSTAR, and Chandra: Insights from the X-ray Afterglow Properties
Brendan O'Connor, Ramandeep Gill, James DeLaunay +22
GRB 250702B is an exceptional transient that produced multiple episodes of luminous gamma-ray radiation lasting for ks, placing it among the class of ultra-long gamma-ray bur…
GRB 250704B: An Off-axis Short GRB with a Long-Lived Afterglow Plateau
Vishwajeet Swain, Tomás Ahumada, Sameer K. Patil +27
We present a detailed multi-wavelength afterglow study of the short GRB 250704B, extensively monitored in optical and near-infrared bands. Its afterglow displays an unusually long-…
Optical/infrared observations of the extraordinary GRB 250702B: a highly obscured afterglow in a massive galaxy consistent with multiple possible progenitors
Jonathan Carney, Igor Andreoni, Brendan O'Connor +31
GRB 250702B was the longest gamma-ray burst ever detected, with a duration that challenges standard collapsar models and suggests an exotic progenitor. We collected a rich set of o…
LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA neutron star merger candidate S250206dm: Zwicky Transient Facility observations
Tomás Ahumada, Shreya Anand, Mattia Bulla +49
We present the searches conducted with the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) in response to S250206dm, a bona fide event with a false alarm rate of one in 25 years, detected by the I…
Kilonova constraints for the LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA neutron star merger candidate S250206dm: GW-MMADS observations
Lei Hu, Tomás Cabrera, Antonella Palmese +35
Gravitational wave (GW) neutron star mergers with an associated electromagnetic counterpart constitute powerful probes of binary evolution, the production sites of heavy elements,…
