A Population Study of the Radio Emission of Fast Blue Optical Transients
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 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

Limits on Simultaneous and Delayed Optical Emission from Well-localized Fast Radio Bursts
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 We present the largest compilation to date of optical observations during and following fast radio bursts (FRBs). The data set includes our dedicated simultaneous and follow-up observations, as well as serendipitous archival survey observations, for a ...

A New Sample of Transient Ultraluminous X-Ray Sources Serendipitously Discovered by Swift/XRT
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are our best laboratories for studying extreme super-Eddington accretion. Most studies of these objects are of relatively persistent sources; however, there is growing evidence to suggest a large fraction of these ...

Searching for Gamma-Ray Bursts Associated with the Second CHIME/FRB Catalog
The Astrophysical JournalFast radio bursts (FRBs) and gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are both linked to compact-object activity, yet their possible connection remains unclear. Here we perform a systematic search for spatial and temporal associations between FRBs in the second CHIME/FRB

Calculation and Uncertainty of Fast Radio Burst Structure Based on Smoothed Data
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Studies of the time-domain structure of fast radio bursts (FRBs) require an accurate estimate of the FRB dispersion measure in order to recover the intrinsic burst shape.

A Search for Persistent Radio Sources toward Repeating Fast Radio Bursts Discovered by CHIME/FRB
The Astrophysical JournalThe identification of persistent radio sources (PRSs) coincident with two repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) supports FRB theories requiring a compact central engine.
