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.
GRB 260310A/SN 2026fgk is a spectroscopically confirmed Type Ic-BL supernova at z=0.153 with 0.4-0.6 times the luminosity of SN 1998bw, nickel mass 0.4-0.5 solar masses, ejected mass 4-6 solar masses, kinetic energy (3-8) x 10^51 erg, and located at a 15 kpc offset due to the host's extended light p
