BGRem: A background noise remover for astronomical images based on a diffusion model
Rodney Nicolaas, Sascha Caron, Fiorenzo Stoppa +4
Context: Astronomical imaging aims to maximize signal capture while minimizing noise. Enhancing the signal-to-noise ratio directly on detectors is difficult and expensive, leading…
An Afterglow Study of the "New Year's Burst" GRB 220101A
Agniva Roychowdhury, Tuomas Kangas, Andrew Fruchter +12
We present a detailed broadband afterglow study of GRB 220101A ( s) combining multi-wavelength data from soft X-rays until 6 GHz. The afterglow light c…
First Results from the PanRadio Gamma-Ray Burst Collaboration: The 400-day Afterglow of GRB 230815A
James K. Leung, Gemma E. Anderson, Alexander J. van der Horst +26
We introduce the PanRadio Gamma-ray Burst (GRB) program carried out on the Australia Telescope Compact Array: a systematic, multi-year, radio survey of all southern $\textit{Swift}…
Can GRB 250702B be explained as the tidal disruption of a white dwarf by an intermediate mass black hole? Yes
Rob AJ Eyles-Ferris, Andrew King, Rhaana LC Starling +11
GRB 250702B is a unique astrophysical transient characterised by its nature as a repeating gamma-ray trigger. Its properties include possible periodicity in its gamma-ray light cur…
JWST and HST observations of the host galaxy and supernova, SN 2024aihh in EP240801a at z=1.67
Agnes P. C. van Hoof, Andrew J. Levan, Peter G. Jonker +15
We present James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations of the counterpart of EP240801a, at z=1.67, the first fast X-ray transient (FXT) identifi…
EP241217a: a likely Type II GRB with an achromatic bump at z = 4.59
Hao Zhou, Jia Ren, Chen-Wei Wang +22
EP241217a is an X-ray transient detected by the Einstein Probe (EP) lasting for about 100 seconds and without accompanying -ray detection. The optical spectroscopy reveals the…
