EP250827b/SN 2025wkm is a new X-ray flash–supernova whose long, soft X-ray burst and double-peaked, plateauing optical light curve are best explained by a magnetar central engine interacting with a low-mass circumstellar shell.
Optical imaging and BAGPIPES SED fitting of eight FXTs yields candidate hosts consistent with WD-IMBH TDEs or BNS mergers for most events, with one reclassified as a Galactic flare and evidence for diverse origins.
