Now you see me, now you don't: Deep, long-lived obscuration events of white dwarfs by dust and debris from disintegrating planetesimals

J. van Roestel, S. Bhattacharjee, J. A. Guidry +22

Transiting dust and debris around white dwarfs provide a direct view of planetary disruption. We report six previously non-variable white dwarfs that underwent single, deep obscura…

Electromagnetic Follow-up of the Sub-Solar Mass Gravitational Wave Candidate S251112cm: Kilonova Constraints and a Coincident IIb Supernova

Xander J. Hall, Tomas Ahumada, Julius Gassert +25

On November 12th, 2025 the LIGO--Virgo--KAGRA (LVK) collaboration reported gravitational waves (GWs) from a compact object merger candidate (S251112cm) with at least one sub-solar…

SN 2024iss: A Multi-Wavelength Exposé of a Type IIb Supernova with an Early-Time Ultraviolet Spectrum and Shock Breakout Constraints

Rujula Yete, Wynn Jacobson-Galan, Ferdinand Ferdinand +49

We present multi-wavelength observations and a comprehensive analysis of the nearby (D14 Mpc) Type IIb supernova (SN IIb) 2024iss. Observations of SN2024iss include an early…

Long GRB 250916A: an Off-axis Powerlaw Jet with Thermal Cocoon

Utkarsh Pathak, Sameer K. Patil, Hitesh Tanenia +22

Some gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) exhibit precursor emission episodes preceding the main emission, with a quiescent period in between. The properties of the precursor emission and the d…

Multiwavelength Analysis of Six Luminous Fast Blue Optical Transients

Cassie Sevilla, Anna Y. Q. Ho, Nayana A. J. +43

We present multiwavelength observations and analysis of six luminous fast blue optical transients (LFBOTs) discovered in Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) survey data. We identified…

A search for successful and choked jets in nearby broad-lined Type Ic supernovae

Tanner O'Dwyer, Alessandra Corsi, Sheng Yang +16

The observational link between long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and broad-lined stripped-envelope core-collapse supernovae (SNe Ic-BL) is well established. Significant progress has bee…
