Characterising the response of an International LOFAR Station
Letizia Vincetti, Sai C. Susarla, Owen A. Johnson +7
Phased-array radio interferometers with fixed antennas are a highly scalable design which can achieve a large gain. However they are complex systems and challenging to calibrate. H…
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…
BlackGEM observations of compact pulsating stars: Mode identification for the DOV PG 1159-035 using multi-colour photometry
P. Ranaivomanana, C. Johnston, M. Uzundag +10
While space-based telescopes offer unparalleled precision for asteroseismology, ground-based observations remain crucial for identifying compact pulsator candidates and enabling th…
GOTO identification and broadband modelling of the counterpart to the SVOM GRB 250818B
S. Belkin, G. P. Lamb, K. Ackley +61
Rapid localisation and follow-up of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) increasingly rely on low-latency triggers from new missions coupled to wide-field robotic optical facilities. We present…
Broadband X-ray observations of the periodic optical source ZTF J185139.81+171430.3 and its identification as a massive intermediate polar
Ren Deng, Kaya Mori, Eric Miao +5
We present X-ray observations of the periodic optical source ZTF J185139.81+171430.3 (hereafter ZTF J1851) by the XMM, NICER and NuSTAR telescopes. The source was initially specula…
NuSTAR broadband X-ray observation of EF Eri following its reawakening into a high accretion state
Luke W. Filor, Kaya Mori, Gabriel Bridges +7
We present the first NuSTAR X-ray observation of EF Eri, a well-known polar system. The NuSTAR observation was conducted in conjunction with NICER, shortly after EF Eri entered a h…
