We present a public catalog of transients from the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) Bright
Transient Survey, a magnitude-limited (m< 19 mag in either the g or r filter) survey for …

Tidal disruption events (TDEs) are bursts of electromagnetic energy that are released when
supermassive black holes at the centres of galaxies violently disrupt a star that passes too …

We present the first extensive radio to γ-ray observations of a fast-rising blue optical
transient, AT 2018cow, over its first∼ 100 days. AT 2018cow rose over a few days to a peak …

Progenitor models for the" luminous" subclass of Fast Blue Optical Transients (LFBOTs;
prototype: AT2018cow) are challenged to simultaneously explain all of their observed …

Abstract The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) is performing a three-day cadence survey of the
visible northern sky (∼ 3π) with newly found transient candidates announced via public …

White dwarf stars that enter the tidal radius of black holes with masses≲ 10 5 M⊙
\lesssim10^5~M_⊙ are doomed to be ripped apart by tidal forces. Black holes in this mass …

We present observations of SN 2021csp, the second example of a newly identified type of
supernova (SN) hallmarked by strong, narrow, P Cygni carbon features at early times (Type …

We present a detailed overview of the science goals and predictions for the Prime-Cam
direct-detection camera–spectrometer being constructed by the CCAT-prime collaboration …

We present ZTF18abvkwla (the" Koala"), a fast blue optical transient discovered in the
Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) One-Day Cadence (1DC) Survey. ZTF18abvkwla has a …

The deaths of massive stars are sometimes accompanied by the launch of highly relativistic
and collimated jets. If the jet is pointed towards Earth, we observe a 'prompt'gamma-ray burst …
