The All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (ASAS-SN) began observing in late-2011 and has been imaging the entire sky with nightly cadence since late 2017. A core goal of ASAS-SN is to release as much useful data as possible to the community. Working towards this goal, in 2017 the first ASAS-SN Sky Patrol was established as a tool for the community to obtain light curves from our data with no preselection of targets. Then, in 2020 we released static V-band photometry from 2013--2018 for 61 million sources. Here we describe the next generation ASAS-SN Sky Patrol, Version 2.0, which represents a major progression of this effort. Sky Patrol 2.0 provides continuously updated light curves for 111 million targets derived from numerous external catalogs of stars, galaxies, and solar system objects. We are generally able to serve photometry data within an hour of observation. Moreover, with a novel database architecture, the catalogs and light curves can be queried at unparalleled speed, returning thousands of light curves within seconds. Light curves can be accessed through a web interface (http://asas-sn.ifa.hawaii.edu/skypatrol/) or a Python client (https://asas-sn.ifa.hawaii.edu/documentation). The Python client can be used to retrieve up to 1 million light curves, generally limited only by bandwidth. This paper gives an updated overview of our survey, introduces the new Sky Patrol, and describes its system architecture. These results provide significant new capabilities to the community for pursuing multi-messenger and time-domain astronomy.

  1. ASASSN-24fw: An 8-month long, 4.1 mag, optically achromatic and polarized dimming event

    astro-ph.SR 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A deep eight-month, nearly achromatic, polarized eclipse of the F star ASASSN-24fw is best explained by a circumbinary disk of big (about 20 micrometer) carbonaceous or water-ice grains.

  2. eRASSU J043115.8-711730: The first pulsating symbiotic super-soft X-ray source in the Magellanic Bridge

    astro-ph.HE 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    J0431-71 is a new super-soft X-ray symbiotic binary in the Magellanic Bridge whose ~524-day optical pulsation appears to drive variable accretion onto a white dwarf.

  3. Ultraviolet to Infrared Spectroscopy of the Type Ibn SN 2023tsz Suggests a Lower-mass Progenitor

    astro-ph.HE 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    UV-to-IR spectra of SN 2023tsz are best matched by interaction models of a ~4 solar-mass stripped helium star with an added X-ray field, supporting a lower-mass binary-stripped progenitor.

  4. Precise Timing Analysis of Four Magnetic Cataclysmic Variables with TESS

    astro-ph.SR 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    TESS timing analysis yields a first beat period for J045707, a first 6.11 h orbital period for J0958, a refined and apparently shrinking orbital period for V1460 Her, and a provisional 3.555 h orbital period for V842 Cen.

  5. Observational Study of Multi-wavelength Synergistic Effects in 3C 120

    astro-ph.GA 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.5 of 10

    Gamma-ray flares in 3C 120 lead 15/43 GHz radio by 11/8 months and drive core brightening, polarized-flux surges, EVPA rotations and knot ejections, implying dual precession-plus-shock jet dynamics.

  6. ZTF SN Ia DR2 follow-up: early excess in Type Ia supernova light curves

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Up to about a quarter of Type Ia supernovae may have an early light-curve bump, but the candidate list depends strongly on the detection method and neither leading explosion model is clearly preferred.

  7. Can a gamma-ray dim radio blazar produce a 200-PeV neutrino? The case of PMN J0606$-$0724 and KM3-230213A

    astro-ph.HE 2025-09 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A gamma-ray dim radio blazar, PMN J0606-0724, can plausibly explain the 200 PeV KM3NeT neutrino through proton-photon interactions in its radio core, with the associated gamma rays absorbed internally.

  8. Towards high-precision inspiral gravitational waveforms from binary neutron star mergers in numerical relativity

    astro-ph.HE 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    A fourth-order hydrodynamics solver in SACRA-MPI reduces binary neutron star inspiral gravitational-wave phase error at merger from about 0.58 to 0.27 radians, while measured convergence order stays near 2.1-2.4.

  9. Luminous, rapidly declining supernovae as stripped transitional objects in low metallicity environments: the case of SN 2022lxg

    astro-ph.HE 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    SN 2022lxg is a luminous, rapidly declining Type II supernova whose flash-ionized spectra and slow-moving (~150 km/s) helium lines reveal a partially stripped progenitor interacting with asymmetric circumstellar gas.

  10. The mass of TOI-654 b: A short-period sub-Neptune transiting a mid-M dwarf

    astro-ph.EP 2025-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    New infrared radial-velocity measurements give TOI-654 b a mass of 8.71 ± 1.25 Earth masses and an updated radius of 2.378 ± 0.089 Earth radii.
