High-resolution imaging of explosive transient systems, such as supernovae and gamma-ray bursts, enabled by VLBI offers a valuable and complementary perspective for studying these systems. By resolving the system down to milli-arcsec level, VLBI studies of these transients shed important insights into both intrinsic and extrinsic properties of the system. Measurements of source size expansion, pro ... More

The very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) technique offers unique insights into the structure and dynamics of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs). Specifically, VLBI serves as a fundamental tool for measuring the apparent superluminal expansion (if the GRB is seen on-axis) and proper motion (if the GRB is observed slightly off-axis) of the GRB outflow, enabling constraints on its geometry and characterisat ...

Gamma Ray Bursts power highly collimated relativistic jets which shine throughout the electromagnetic spectrum from the radio to the TeV energy range. Short GRBs, produced by the merger of compact binaries hosting at least a neutron star, are key targets to exploit the multimessenger power of combining gravitational waves and electromagnetic observations. I will present the current knowledge of GR ... More

Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are thermonuclear explosions of degenerate white dwarf stars destabilized by mass accretion from a companion star. Despite SNe Ia having been used to unveil the accelerated expansion of the universe, the nature of their progenitors remains poorly understood. To distinguish between a degenerate and non-degenerate progenitor companion, one can use radio observations. A no ... More
