We present the final data release of observations of lambda 21-cm emission from Galactic neutral hydrogen over the entire sky, merging the Leiden/Dwingeloo Survey (LDS: Hartmann & Burton, 1997) of the sky north of delta = -30 deg with the Instituto Argentino de Radioastronomia Survey (IAR: Arnal et al., 2000, and Bajaja et al., 2005) of the sky south of delta = -25 deg. The angular resolution of the combined material is HPBW ~ 0.6 deg. The LSR velocity coverage spans the interval -450 km/s to +400 km/s, at a resolution of 1.3 km/s. The data were corrected for stray radiation at the Institute for Radioastronomy of the University of Bonn, refining the original correction applied to the LDS. The rms brightness-temperature noise of the merged database is 0.07 - 0.09 K. Residual errors in the profile wings due to defects in the correction for stray radiation are for most of the data below a level of 20 - 40 mK. It would be necessary to construct a telescope with a main beam efficiency of eta_{MB} > 99% to achieve the same accuracy. The merged and refined material entering the LAB Survey of Galactic HI is intended to be a general resource useful to a wide range of studies of the physical and structural characteristices of the Galactic interstellar environment. The LAB Survey is the most sensitive Milky Way HI survey to date, with the most extensive coverage both spatially and kinematically.

    astro-ph.HE 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Computes neutrino template maps from the Galactic Plane including star cluster emission, finding the cluster contribution may be non-negligible and consistent with IceCube best-fit templates.

  2. The emergence of X-ray emission lines during relativistic radio-jet formation in the changing-look active galactic nucleus 1ES 1927+654

    astro-ph.HE 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    X-ray emission lines and a broad iron feature emerged in changing-look AGN 1ES 1927+654 concurrently with radio-jet formation and declining ionized outflows from 2022 to 2025.

  3. The plethora of diffuse emission in Abell 2034 as revealed by MeerKAT polarization observations

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0

    MeerKAT polarization and spectral-index data reclassify Abell 2034's diffuse radio sources and favor a ~1 μG intracluster magnetic field (B ∝ n_e^0.5, normalized at R500).

  4. X-ray Absorption Variability in NGC 1142: Another Constraint on the Nature of the Torus/Broad-Line Region in Active Galactic Nuclei

    astro-ph.GA 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.5

    NGC 1142’s NH varies across nine epochs; detection probability scales with observation count, and simple cloud simulations favor many simultaneous eclipsing clouds.

  5. Colour evolution in the radio afterglow of GRB 241025A

    astro-ph.HE 2026-07 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Multi-band data for GRB 241025A require an ad-hoc factor-500 increase in shocked-material optical depth to match the observed radio spectral evolution within a structured-jet forward-shock model.

  6. A Rare Gamma-ray Flaring episode of the Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxy 1H 0323+342

    astro-ph.HE 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Multi-wavelength monitoring of a gamma-ray flare in 1H 0323+342 reveals sub-hour variability, jet-corona transition, and ~10^46 erg/s jet power via external Compton modeling of disk and BLR photons.
