Search and identification of transient and variable radio sources using MeerKAT observations: a case study on the MAXI J1820+070 field [PDF]
Many transient and variable sources detected at multiple wavelengths are also observed to vary at radio frequencies. However, these samples are typically biased towards sources that are initially detected in wide-field optical, X-ray or gamma-ray surveys.

Diverse origins for non-repeating fast radio bursts: Rotational radio transient sources and cosmological compact binary merger remnants [PDF]
A large number of fast radio bursts (FRBs) detected with the CHIME telescope have enabled investigations of their energy distributions in different redshift intervals, incorporating the consideration of the selection effects of CHIME.

Constraining the Nature of the 18 min Periodic Radio Transient GLEAM-X J162759.5-523504.3 via Multiwavelength Observations and Magneto-thermal Simulations [PDF]
We observed the periodic radio transient GLEAM-X J162759.5-523504.3 (GLEAM-X J1627) using the Chandra X-ray Observatory for about 30 ks on 2022 January 22–23, simultaneously with radio observations from the Murchison Widefield Array, MeerKAT, and the ...

Strongly Lensed Transient Sources: A Review [PDF]
The past decades have witnessed a lot of progress in gravitational lensing with two main targets: stars and galaxies (with active galactic nuclei). The success is partially attributed to the continuous luminescence of these sources making the detection ...

Particle Acceleration in Mildly Relativistic Outflows of Fast Energetic Transient Sources [PDF]
Recent discovery of fast blue optical transients (FBOTs)—a new class of energetic transient sources—can shed light on the long-standing problem of supernova—long gamma-ray burst connections.

Improved time-delay lens modelling and H0 inference with transient sources [PDF]
Strongly lensed explosive transients such as supernovae, gamma-ray bursts, fast radio bursts, and gravitational waves are very promising tools to determine the Hubble constant (H0) in the near future in addition to strongly lensed quasars.

X-Ray and Radio Monitoring of the Neutron Star Low-mass X-Ray Binary 1A 1744-361: Quasiperiodic Oscillations, Transient Ejections, and a Disk Atmosphere [PDF]
We report on X-ray (NICER/NuSTAR/MAXI/Swift) and radio (MeerKAT) timing and spectroscopic analysis from a 3 month monitoring campaign in 2022 of a high-intensity outburst of the dipping neutron star low-mass X-ray binary 1A 1744−361.

A Population Study of the Radio Emission of Fast Blue Optical Transients
Despite the fact that the progenitor of fast blue optical transients (FBOTs) is still a subject of debate, FBOTs are sometimes suggested to originate from the core collapse of ultra-stripped stars and be powered by a spinning-down neutron star. Following
