GRB 220706A: a gamma-ray burst with a month-long engine and a luminous supernova

Benjamin P. Gompertz, Nusrin Habeeb, Dheeraj R. Pasham +30

While the progenitors of many long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are well established as the core collapse of very massive, envelope-stripped, rapidly-rotating stars, it has been suggest…

Gamma-ray burst progenitors revisited

Andrew J. Levan, Jillian C. Rastinejad, Helena-Margaret S. Grabham +11

Recently, several long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) associated with kilonovae have cast doubt on the traditional, dichotomous mapping between gamma-ray duration and progenitor…

Early Optical Follow-up of Gamma-Ray Bursts: The Critical Role of Robotic Telescopes

Rahul Gupta, Judith Racusin, Gor Oganesyan +26

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most luminous electromagnetic explosions in the Universe, and offer unique laboratories for studying relativistic jets, compact-object formation, pa…

Late-time JWST/NIRCam Observations of the Extremely Long-duration GRB 250702B/EP 250702a and Its Host Galaxy

Huei Sears, Jean J. Somalwar, Ryan Chornock +22

We present JWST/NIRCam observations of the extremely long-duration gamma-ray burst (GRB) 250702B taken at ~ 95 days post-GRB (observer frame). The observations of the host galaxy r…

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…

Early Multiwavelength Observations of AT 2026fgk: The Luminous Afterglow to Sub-luminous GRB 260310A, Identified Independently of a Gamma-ray Trigger

K. -R. Hinds, A. Y. Q. Ho, Y. Wagh +103

The origins of sub-luminous (\,erg\,s) gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) associated with broad-lined Type~Ic supernovae (Ic-BL SNe) are poorly u…
