Aarmed with Data: Bumps, Outflows, and Disk-like Emission in TDE 2025aarm

Aysha Aamer, Kate D. Alexander, Charlotte R. Angus +43

The origin of the optical emission in tidal disruption events (TDEs) remains one of the major outstanding questions in the field, in part due to the limited number of nearby events…

The flash-ionised SN Ibn 2025kzr: H-free CSM formed during a precursor outburst 55 days prior to explosion

S. de Wet, G. Leloudas, D. A. H. Buckley +33

Type Ibn supernovae (SNe) are a class of interacting SNe characterised by narrow helium lines in their spectra. We present an extensive observational dataset of the Type Ibn SN 202…

The Long-lived Broadband Afterglow of Short Gamma-Ray Burst 231117A and the Growing Radio-Detected Short GRB Population

Genevieve Schroeder, Wen-fai Fong, Charles D. Kilpatrick +28

We present multiwavelength observations of the Swift short -ray burst GRB 231117A, localized to an underlying galaxy at redshift at a small projected offset ($\sim 2…

The BlackGEM telescope array I: Overview

Paul J. Groot, S. Bloemen, P. Vreeswijk +75

The main science aim of the BlackGEM array is to detect optical counterparts to gravitational wave mergers. Additionally, the array will perform a set of synoptic surveys to detect…

Varying linear polarisation in the dust-free GRB 210610B

J. F. Agüí Fernández, A. de Ugarte Postigo, C. C. Thöne +19

Long gamma ray bursts (GRBs) are produced by the collapse of some very massive stars, which emit ultra-relativistic jets. When the jets collide with the interstellar medium they de…

The ultra-long GRB 220627A at z=3.08

S. de Wet, L. Izzo, P. J. Groot +19

GRB 220627A is a rare burst with two distinct gamma-ray emission episodes separated by almost 1000 s that triggered the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor twice. High-energy GeV emissio…

The 2019 outburst of AMXP SAX J1808.4-3658 and radio follow up of MAXI J0911-655 and XTE J1701-462

K. V. S. Gasealahwe, I. M. Monageng, R. P. Fender +14

We present radio coverage of the 2019 outburst of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658, obtained with MeerKAT. We compare these data to contemporaneous X-ray and…

The triple-peaked afterglow of GRB 210731A from X-ray to radio frequencies

S. de Wet, T. Laskar, P. J. Groot +18

GRB 210731A was a long-duration gamma-ray burst discovered by the Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) aboard the Neil Gehrels Swift observatory. Swift triggered the wide-field, robotic Mee…
