A JWST redshift for the host galaxy of EP250207b of z=3.2: a collapsar origin is viable

Agnes P. C. van Hoof, Peter G. Jonker, Andrew J. Levan +27

We present James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations of the field of the fast X-ray transient (FXT) detected by Einstein Probe, EP250207b, to…

Milliarcsecond-scale spectrum of the persistent radio source associated with FRB 20190417A and constraints for FRB 20181030A

G. Bruni, L. Piro, Y. -P. Yang +6

We aim to confirm the compact nature and constrain the radio spectra of candidate persistent radio sources (PRSs) associated with repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs). We performed E…

Failed jet breakout in the metal-poor broad-lined type Ic supernova 2026gzf

Antonio Martin-Carrillo, Christina C. Thöne, James K. Leung +103

A long-standing question in the death of massive stars is the role of relativistic jets. While many gamma-ray bursts and some fast X-ray transients seem to be associated with broad…

ENGRAVE follow-up of a type IIb supernova spatially coincident with the sub-threshold gravitational wave trigger S250818k

K. Ackley, M. T. Botticella, A. Boye +54

The candidate gravitational wave (GW) event S250818k was one of only three non-retracted LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA public alerts issued during the fourth observing run of the network (O4) w…

GRB 210704A: A Luminous Fast Blue Transient in a GRB Afterglow at

Daniëlle L. A. Pieterse, Andrew J. Levan, Maria E. Ravasio +27

We present detailed, multi-wavelength analysis of GRB 210704A: a Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor discovered and Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) detected gamma-ray burst (GRB). The b…

The hidden population of long gamma-ray bursts from compact object mergers

R. Maccary, C. Guidorzi, L. Amati +6

Context. The prompt-emission time profiles of GRB 230307A and other long-duration compact object merger (COM) candidates exhibit a unique set of temporal properties, characterised…
