A Unified Timescale Relation for Quasi-Periodic Eruptions and Repeated Nuclear Transients
Shifeng Huang, Tinggui Wang, Ning Jiang +9
Quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) and recurrent nuclear transients (RNTs) exhibit recurrent high-amplitude flares from galactic nuclei, yet their characteristic timescales remain poo…
X-rays breaking out of pre-explosion ejecta mark a supernova's first light
Weimin Yuan, Qiu-Ju Huang, Jin-Ping Zhu +130
Massive stars die as core-collapse supernovae, whose optical light emerges days after the implosion. Theory predicts that the initial collapse-driven shock, upon breaking through t…
Mapping the Dense Circumstellar Environments of SNe Ibn, SNe Icn, and Fast Blue Optical Transients
Kang-Rui Ni, Yu-Hao Zhang, Liang-Duan Liu +2
SNe Ibn and SNe Icn are stripped-envelope explosions whose optical emission is commonly linked to interaction with H-poor circumstellar material (CSM), whereas fast blue optical tr…
Discovery of a Featureless Tidal Disruption Event at z~1 with the Wide Field Survey Telescope
Jiazheng Zhu, Zelin Xu, Ning Jiang +31
We report the discovery of tidal disruption event (TDE) WFST250820mmsw/AT2025wet by the 2.5-meter Wide Field Survey Telescope (WFST). It exhibits a blue nuclear flare throughout th…
Electromagnetic Follow-up of the Sub-Solar Mass Gravitational Wave Candidate S251112cm: Kilonova Constraints and a Coincident IIb Supernova
Xander J. Hall, Tomas Ahumada, Julius Gassert +25
On November 12th, 2025 the LIGO--Virgo--KAGRA (LVK) collaboration reported gravitational waves (GWs) from a compact object merger candidate (S251112cm) with at least one sub-solar…
Illuminating the Mass Gap Through Deep Optical Constraint on a Neutron Star Merger Candidate S250206dm
Zhengyan Liu, Zelin Xu, Ji-an Jiang +35
The gravitational wave (GW) event S250206dm, as the first well-localized neutron star merger candidate potentially located in the mass gap, presented a unique opportunity to probe…
A Systematic Search for Active Galactic Nucleus Flares in ZTF Data Release 23
Lei He, Zheng-Yan Liu, Rui Niu +13
Active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are known to exhibit stochastic variability across a wide range of timescales and wavelengths. AGN flares are extreme outbursts that deviate from this…
A Glimpse of Satellite Galaxies in the Milky Way with the 2.5-meter Wide Field Survey Telescope (WFST): Bootes III and Draco
Chao Yang, Zhizheng Pan, Min Fang +34
We carry out deep imaging of the Milky Way satellite galaxies, Bootes III and Draco, with WFST as one pilot observing program to demonstrate the capability of WFST. Combining catal…
Minute-cadence observations on Galactic plane with Wide Field Survey Telescope (WFST): Overview, methodology and early results
Jie Lin, Tinggui Wang, Minxuan Cai +26
As the time-domain survey telescope of the highest survey power in the northern hemisphere currently, Wide Field Survey Telescope (WFST) is scheduled to hourly/daily/semi-weekly sc…
A systematic search for rapid transients in the Subaru HSC-SSP transient survey
Seiji Toshikage, Masaomi Tanaka, Naoki Yasuda +9
Recent high-cadence transient surveys have discovered rapid transients whose light curve timescales are shorter than those of typical supernovae. In this paper, we present a system…
Could the inter-band lag of active galactic nucleus vary randomly?
Zhen-Bo Su, Zhen-Yi Cai, Jun-Xian Wang +18
The inter-band lags among the optical broad-band continua of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) have been intensively explored over the past decade. However, the nature of the lags rema…
A deep analysis for New Horizons' KBO search images
Fumi Yoshida, Toshifumi Yanagisawa, Takashi Ito +8
Observation datasets acquired by the Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) on the Subaru Telescope for NASA's New Horizons mission target search were analyzed through a method devised by JAXA. T…
The unluckiest star: A spectroscopically confirmed repeated partial tidal disruption event AT 2022dbl
Zheyu Lin, Ning Jiang, Tinggui Wang +13
The unluckiest star orbits a supermassive black hole elliptically. Every time it reaches the pericenter, it shallowly enters the tidal radius and gets partially tidal disrupted, pr…
AT2023lli: A Tidal Disruption Event with Prominent Optical Early Bump and Delayed Episodic X-ray Emission
Shifeng Huang, Ning Jiang, Jiazheng Zhu +42
High-cadence, multiwavelength observations have continuously revealed the diversity of tidal disruption events (TDEs), thus greatly advancing our knowledge and understanding of TDE…
