Primordial black holes captured by stars lead to either quiet consumption or explosive disruption via disk formation, producing transients and high-spin remnants with potentially observable event rates.

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.
GRB intrinsic duration distributions show a redshift-dependent plateau only at z>2 and for soft bursts, indicating collapsar dominance at high redshift and non-collapsar contributions at low redshift, with progenitor radius constrained to a few tenths of a solar radius.
A structured jet model with weak-scattering thermal heating in the mixed cocoon region reproduces the quasi-thermal and non-thermal spectra of GRB 090902B while broader spectra appear in strong-scattering cases.
Simulations of the BSD instrument for POLAR-2 show it can localize faint GRBs like GRB 170817A to about 1.5 degrees accuracy, meeting requirements for supporting GRB polarimetry.
