The Intermediate-Mass Black Hole Reverberation Mapping Project: Stable Optical Continuum Lags of an IMBH in the Dwarf Galaxy NGC 4395 Over Years
Yu Pan, Hengxiao Guo, Chenxu Liu +15
NGC 4395 is a nearby dwarf spiral galaxy hosting an active galactic nucleus (AGN) powered by an intermediate-mass black hole (IMBH, --). Re…
SN 2024aecx: A double-peaked rapidly evolving Type IIb supernova at 11 Mpc
Xingzhu Zou, Brajesh Kumar, Rishabh Singh Teja +28
We present the results of low-resolution spectroscopic and densely sampled multi-band photometric follow-up of supernova (SN) 2024aecx. The SN was discovered in the spiral galaxy N…
Spectral Hardening Reveals Afterglow Emergence in Long-Duration Fast X-ray Transients: A Case Study of GRB 250404A/EP250404a
Yi-Han Iris Yin, Yuan Fang, Bin-Bin Zhang +56
The prompt emission and afterglow phases of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been extensively studied, yet the transition between these two phases remains inadequately characterized du…
A Practical Framework for Weight Map Construction in CCD Photometry
Dezi Liu, Yuan Fang
This note presents a practical formulation for constructing weight maps in CCD photometry, accounting for various noise contributions under the assumption of statistical independen…
Multiwavelength Analysis of GRB 250101A: From Gamma-ray Prompt Emission to Optical Afterglow
Guowang Du, Yehao Cheng, Yuan-Pei Yang +15
The interaction between the relativistic jet and the circumburst medium produces a multiwavelength afterglow of a gamma-ray burst (GRBs). In this work, we present multiwavelength p…
Simultaneous Multiband Photometry of the Early Optical Afterglow of GRB 240825A with Mephisto
Yehao Cheng, Yu Pan, Yuan-Pei Yang +19
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most luminous transients in the universe. The interaction of the relativistic jet with the circumburst medium produces an afterglow and generates mu…
