EP J175257.3-351923 is identified as a candidate black hole low-mass X-ray binary from its FRED outburst profile, persistent hard state, truncated disk spectrum with 217 keV cutoff, and high X-ray-to-optical ratio.
Off-axis cocoon emission from long GRB jets produces fast X-ray transients with luminosities of 10^47-48 erg/s, durations of 10-100 s, and soft quasi-thermal spectra peaking near 0.8 keV.
EP251023a is a new extragalactic fast X-ray transient whose optical light curve is interpreted as a rare magnetar-powered internal plateau with derived upper limits on spin period and magnetic field.
New EP-FXT data on the 2024 outburst of magnetar 1E 1841-045 shows energy-dependent multi-peaked pulses, spectral hardening, BB temperature-pulse intensity correlations, and effective separation from supernova remnant emission.
The paper identifies supernova emission matching a scaled SN 1998bw template in the late-time light curve of EP250302a at z=1.131, with early data constraining the jet Lorentz factor above 25.
