Self-consistent simulations reveal that reverse shocks in GRB photospheres stay radiation-mediated down to optical depths of a few tenths, with photons decoupling over a broad radial range and forming a quasi-thermal post-cursor.

EP260321a is identified as the faintest shock breakout X-ray transient associated with broad-lined Ic supernova SN 2026gzf, interpreted as originating from a mildly relativistic weak outflow choked inside the progenitor star.
A photospheric model calculates gamma-ray spectrum and energy from black-to-white hole transitions and estimates lunar-mass primordial black hole density.
A review of early optical GRB features including prompt emission, reverse shocks, and afterglow onset, highlighting robotic telescopes' role in constraining jet Lorentz factors and magnetization.
