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…

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…

A Broadband X-ray Investigation of Fast-Spinning Intermediate Polar CTCV J2056-3014

Ciro Salcedo, Kaya Mori, Gabriel Bridges +5

We report on XMM-Newton, NuSTAR, and NICER X-ray observations of CTCV J2056-3014, a cataclysmic variable (CV) with one of the fastest-spinning white dwarfs (WDs) at P = 29.6 s. Whi…

Cataclysmic Variables and AM CVn Binaries in SRG/eROSITA + Gaia: Volume Limited Samples, X-ray Luminosity Functions, and Space Densities

Antonio C. Rodriguez, Kareem El-Badry, Valery Suleimanov +22

We present volume-limited samples of cataclysmic variables (CVs) and AM CVn binaries jointly selected from SRG/eROSITA eRASS1 and \textit{Gaia} DR3 using an X-ray + optical color-c…
