Multi-scale variability in the optical afterglow of GRB 251013C from high-cadence LAST observations

R. Konno, E. O. Ofek, S. Garrappa +8

Context. Optical afterglows of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are often described by smooth power-law decays, but deviations such as flares and rebrightenings provide important constraint…

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…

A search for minute-time-scale flares from the transient AT\,2024wpp

Eran O. Ofek, Lior Ozer, Ruslan Konno +21

The AT 2018cow-like fast blue optical transient AT2022tsd showed a large number of few-minute-duration, high-luminosity (~10^43 erg/s) flares. We present an intensive search for su…

Accurate photometric calibration by fitting the system transmission

S. Garrappa, E. O. Ofek, S. Ben-Ami +10

Transforming the instrumental photometry of ground-based telescopes into a calibrated physical flux in a well-defined passband is a major challenge in astronomy. Along with the int…

An Approach to Gamma-Hadron Separation via Measurements of the Middle-UV Fraction of EAS emission by an Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope with UV-Sensitive SiPM detectors

E. E. Kholupenko, D. V. Badmaev, N. M. Budnev +7

The operation of a small-size Cherenkov gamma-ray telescope TAIGA-IACT with camera on SiPMs OnSemi MicroFJ-60035 has been modelled by multiparticle Monte Carlo (MC) methods. The mo…

TRANSLIENT: Detecting Transients Resulting from Point Source Motion or Astrometric Errors

O. Springer, E. O. Ofek, B. Zackay +10

Detection of moving sources over complicated background is important for several reasons. First is measuring the astrophysical motion of the source. Second is that such motion resu…
