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.
Identifies 596 WD-MS binary candidates within 100 pc (497 new) by detecting NUV excess in Gaia sources and fitting SEDs to estimate WD temperatures and masses.
Stellar evolution and atmosphere models predict black hole progenitors are predominantly hot and blue with a direct-collapse rate of ~0.4 per century in a 1 Msun/yr star-forming galaxy.
Non-explosive DWD mergers leaving NS remnants produce optical transients detectable by LSST out to 30-820 Mpc with rates 10²-10⁶ yr⁻¹ depending on log D, though survey cadence restricts reliable detections to log D = 36-40 within 240-760 Mpc at rates 10⁴-10⁵ yr⁻¹.
SKA-Mid is predicted to yield samples of 10-100 low-metallicity Lyman continuum emitting galaxies per square degree, enabling multi-wavelength studies of feedback processes linked to ionizing photon escape.
Lazuli is proposed as a space observatory combining flagship sensitivity with response times one to two orders of magnitude faster than current large facilities to enable new time-domain and multi-messenger science.
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.
PS16dtm is the tidal disruption of a 0.3 solar-mass star on a circular counter-rotating orbit inside the accretion disk of an NLS1 galaxy, hidden by a gaseous envelope from the observer's view.
The paper evaluates how triangular versus two-L-shaped geometries, arm lengths, and presence of low-frequency instruments affect the science reach of the Einstein Telescope for compact binaries, multi-messenger events, and stochastic backgrounds.
AGN (jetted and non-jetted) are viable high-energy neutrino sources, with TXS 0506+056 and NGC 1068 as the only statistically significant associations so far, while gamma-ray blazars contribute only a small fraction of the diffuse flux.
Review of UV spectroscopy applications to hot evolved stars, emphasizing HST contributions and the need for continued observations ahead of HWO.
Expanding HST observations of intermediate-redshift quasars can deliver the first systematic rest-frame EUV census of QSOs and warm-hot gas in the CGM/IGM as a low-redshift anchor for future UV missions.
The paper summarizes current understanding of circumstellar disk evolution and proposes high-priority UV observations with HST to address key questions on disk dispersal through the 2030s.
The paper advocates preserving HST UV spectroscopy through 2035 as essential for statistically significant samples of polluted white dwarf compositions, groundwork for HWO, and synergy with JWST.
