Luminous Fast Blue Optical Transients in the 2040s
A. A. Chrimes, N. Sarin, D. Coppejans +6
Luminous Fast Blue Optical Transients (LFBOTs) are a class of extragalactic transient of uncertain origin. Several hypotheses have been put forward which could feasibly be consiste…
How Mass Flows Through Accretion Discs: A Spectral-Timing Vision for the 2040s
Simone Scaringi, Domitilla de Martino, Anna F. Pala +17
Understanding how mass and angular momentum flow through accretion discs remains a fundamental unsolved problem in astrophysics. Accreting white dwarfs offer an ideal laboratory fo…
Optimizing Kilonova Searches: A Case Study of the Type IIb SN 2025ulz in the Localization Volume of the Low-Significance Gravitational Wave Event S250818k
Noah Franz, Bhagya Subrayan, Charles D. Kilpatrick +54
Kilonovae, the ultraviolet/optical/infrared counterparts to binary neutron star mergers, are an exceptionally rare class of transients. Optical follow-up campaigns are plagued by c…
SN 2024cld: unveiling the complex mass-loss histories of evolved supergiant progenitors to core collapse supernovae
T. L. Killestein, M. Pursiainen, R. Kotak +52
Pre-explosion mass loss in supernova (SN) progenitors is a crucial unknown factor in stellar evolution, yet has been illuminated recently by the diverse zoo of interacting transien…
Dichotomy in Long-Lived Radio Emission from Tidal Disruption Events AT 2020zso and AT 2021sdu: Multi-Component Outflows vs. Host Contamination
Collin T. Christy, Kate D. Alexander, Tanmoy Laskar +16
We present a detailed radio study of the tidal disruption events (TDEs) AT 2020zso and AT 2021sdu. Both exhibit transient radio emission beginning shortly after optical discovery a…
Discovery and Analysis of Afterglows from Poorly Localised GRBs with the Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO) All-sky Survey
Amit Kumar, B. P. Gompertz, B. Schneider +86
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), particularly those detected by wide-field instruments such as the Fermi/GBM, pose a challenge for optical follow-up due to their large initial localisation…
