Radio and X-Ray Observations of the Luminous Fast Blue Optical Transient AT 2020xnd

Joe S. Bright et al.

Summary: We conducted multiwavelength observations of the high-redshift fast blue optical transient AT 2020xnd, finding strong radio emission and rapidly fading X-ray emission, which show similarities to AT 2018cow and are possibly caused by the shock interaction with the environment. In addition, we detected X-ray emission that exceeds the extrapolated synchrotron spectrum, possibly powered by accretion onto a newly formed black hole or neutron star.

Evidence for a compact object in the aftermath of the extragalactic transient AT2018cow

Dheeraj R. Pasham et al.

Summary: AT2018cow is an extreme fast blue optical transient with a high-amplitude quasiperiodic oscillation in its soft X-rays at a frequency of 224 Hz and a fractional root-mean-squared amplitude of >30%. The high frequency suggests the presence of a compact object, possibly a neutron star or black hole with a mass less than 850 solar masses. This discovery highlights a new method of studying FBOTs using high-time-resolution X-ray observations.

A Common Envelope Jets Supernova (CEJSN) Impostor Scenario for Fast Blue Optical Transients

Noam Soker

Summary: This paper proposes the polar common envelope jets supernova (CEJSN) impostor scenario to account for fast blue optical transients (FBOTs) like AT2018cow. The scenario involves four main phases: the interaction between a red supergiant and a neutron star, mass accretion, common envelope evolution, and the formation of a circumbinary disk. The interaction between jets and lobes explains the fast transient phenomenon.

Luminous Fast Blue Optical Transients and Type Ibn/Icn SNe from Wolf-Rayet/Black Hole Mergers

Brian D. Metzger

Summary: This article proposes progenitor models for the luminous subclass of Fast Blue Optical Transients (LFBOTs), specifically the prototype AT2018cow. It suggests that the tidal disruption and hyper-accretion of a Wolf-Rayet (WR) star by a black hole or neutron star binary companion can explain the observed properties of LFBOTs, such as fast optical rise times, high peak luminosities, low yields of Ni-56, aspherical ejecta, hydrogen-depleted circumstellar material (CSM), and the presence of X-ray/gamma-ray sources.

The X-Ray and Radio Loud Fast Blue Optical Transient AT2020mrf: Implications for an Emerging Class of Engine-driven Massive Star Explosions

Yuhan Yao et al.

Summary: AT2020mrf is a fast blue optical transient with a redshift of 0.1353. It shows similarities to AT2018cow in its optical spectrum and radio and X-ray emissions, and requires a central engine to power the explosion.

An asymmetric electron-scattering photosphere around optical tidal disruption events

Giorgos Leloudas et al.

Summary: By studying the polarization of tidal disruption events, researchers have found evidence of photons being scattered and polarized in an envelope of free electrons. The observations are consistent with a super-Eddington accretion model and demonstrate the reliability of the model.

Estimating Distances from Parallaxes. V. Geometric and Photogeometric Distances to 1.47 Billion Stars in Gaia Early Data Release 3

C. A. L. Bailer-Jones et al.

Summary: Stellar distances are essential in astrophysics, and the publication of 1.47 billion stellar parallaxes from Gaia significantly contributes to this field. Despite challenges with faint or distant stars, a probabilistic approach using a three-dimensional model of the Galaxy has been developed to estimate geometric and photogeometric distances. Photogeometric estimates generally show higher accuracy and precision compared to geometric distances, especially for stars with poor parallaxes, and are provided in a publicly available catalog.

Real-time discovery of AT2020xnd: a fast, luminous ultraviolet transient with minimal radioactive ejecta

Daniel A. Perley et al.

Summary: The discovery of AT2020xnd as the first unambiguous AT2018cow analogue in real time supports the argument that events like AT2018cow represent a distinct phenomenon from slower-evolving radio-quiet supernovae.

RINGO3 polarimetry of very young ZTF supernovae

J. R. Maund et al.

Summary: The early phases of supernovae evolution are dominated by shock breakout and flash ionization of the surrounding material, allowing for vital constraints on the latest evolutionary phases leading to stellar death. Limits on polarization within the first 5 days post-explosion are generally < 2%, indicating early asymmetries are restricted. Polarimetric observations provide insights into the evolution of different types of supernovae around and after maximum light.

Coherence scale of magnetic fields generated in early-time forward shocks of GRBs

N. Jordana-Mitjans et al.

Summary: The study reports the earliest detection of optical polarization from a GRB forward shock (GRB 141220A). The low optical polarization observed is found to be related to the host galaxy dust, consistent with theoretical predictions for forward shocks.
