The most distant optically polarised GRB afterglow: GRB 240419A at z = 5.178

R. Brivio, S. Covino, M. Ferro +31

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are extremely bright phenomena powered by relativistic jets arising from explosive events at cosmological distances. The nature of the jet and the configura…

Evidence for an intrinsic luminosity-decay correlation in GRB radio afterglows

S. P. R. Shilling, S. R. Oates, D. A. Kann +12

We present the discovery of a correlation, in a sample of 16 gamma-ray burst 8.5 GHz radio afterglows, between the intrinsic luminosity measured at 10 days in the rest frame, $L_{\…

EP250207b is not a collapsar fast X-ray transient. Is it due to a compact object merger?

P. G. Jonker, A. J. Levan, Xing Liu +41

Fast X-ray Transients (FXTs) are short-lived extra-galactic X-ray sources. Recent progress through multi-wavelength follow-up of Einstein Probe discovered FXTs has shown that sever…

Swift/UVOT discovery of Swift J221951-484240: a UV luminous ambiguous nuclear transient

S. R. Oates, N. P. M. Kuin, M. Nicholl +57

We report the discovery of Swift J221951-484240 (hereafter: J221951), a luminous slow-evolving blue transient that was detected by the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory Ultra-violet/O…

Swift-XRT follow-up of gravitational wave triggers during the third aLIGO/Virgo observing run

K. L. Page, P. A. Evans, A. Tohuvavohu +41

The Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory followed up 18 gravitational wave (GW) triggers from the LIGO/Virgo collaboration during the O3 observing run in 2019/2020, performing approximat…

Observational constraints on the optical and near-infrared emission from the neutron star-black hole binary merger S190814bv

K. Ackley, L. Amati, C. Barbieri +151

On 2019 August 14, the LIGO and Virgo interferometers detected a high-significance event labelled S190814bv. Preliminary analysis of the GW data suggests that the event was likely…
