TDE 2025abcr: A Tidal Disruption Event in the Outskirts of a Massive Galaxy
Robert Stein, Jonathan Carney, Charlotte Ward +27
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) have traditionally been discovered in optical sky surveys through targeted searches of nuclear transients. However, it is expected that some TDEs wil…
GRB 230204B: GIT Discovery of a Fast Fading Afterglow Associated with an Energetic GRB from a Massive-Star Progenitor
Vishwajeet Swain, Varun Bhalerao, Harsh Kumar +19
We present a comprehensive multi-wavelength study of a bright gamma-ray burst GRB 230204B, analyzing both prompt and afterglow emissions. This GRB is highly energetic, with an isot…
ZTF25abjmnps (AT2025ulz) and S250818k: A Candidate Superkilonova from a Sub-threshold Sub-Solar Gravitational Wave Trigger
Mansi M. Kasliwal, Tomas Ahumada, Robert Stein +61
On August 18, 2025, the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration reported gravitational waves from a sub-threshold binary neutron star merger. If astrophysical, this event would have a surpr…
SN 2023uqf: An Interacting Supernova Coincident with a High-Energy Neutrino
Robert Stein, Anna Y. Q. Ho, Anjasha Gangopadhyay +30
Astrophysical high-energy (TeV-PeV) neutrinos were first discovered in 2013, but their origin remains largely unknown. Here we present SN 2023uqf, a supernova found in coincidence…
A real-time search for Type Ia Supernovae with late-time CSM interaction in ZTF
Jacco H. Terwel, Kate Maguire, Seán J. Brennan +20
The nature of Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) progenitor systems and the mechanisms that lead up to their explosions are still widely debated. In rare cases the SN ejecta interact with c…
IIb or not IIb: A Catalog of ZTF Kilonova Imposters
Tyler Barna, Christoffer Fremling, Tomas Ahumada +12
Among the various classes of fast optical transients (FOTs), kilonovae (KNe), which can emerge as a result of neutron star mergers, are extremely challenging to observe because of…
