GRB 260310A/SN 2026fgk: Photometric and Spectroscopic Evolution of a Nearby GRB-Supernova and an Exceptionally Bright Afterglow at z=0.153

Brendan O'Connor, Malte Busmann, Xander J. Hall +24

The association of broad-lined Type Ic supernovae with long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) has been known for 28 years. However, only about seventy gamma-ray burst supernovae (GR…

EP260321a/SN 2026gzf: The Faintest Shock Breakout Associated with a Broad-Lined Supernova

Brendan O'Connor, Xander J. Hall, Malte Busmann +33

The explosion of a star is first marked by the shock wave breaking out of the stellar surface, producing a burst of ultraviolet and X-ray radiation. These events are observationall…

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…

The comet 17P/Holmes 2007 outburst: the early motion of the outburst material

M. Montalto, A. Riffeser, U. Hopp +2

Context. On October 24, 2007 the periodic comet 17P/Holmes underwent an astonishing outburst that increased its apparent total brightness from magnitude V\sim17 up to V\sim2.5 in r…
