TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the likely association of a radio-emitting tidal disruption event, AT2019dsg, with a second high-energy neutrino, which was identified as part of a systematic search for optical counterparts to high-energetic neutrinos with the Zwicky Transient Facility.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a photometric redshift catalog and radiative transfer simulations of NSBH mergers to constrain the ejecta mass of S190814bv to be $M_\mathrm{ej} < 0.04$~$M_{\odot}$ at polar viewing angles, or if the opacity is $\kappa < 2$~cm$^2$g$^{-1}$.
