The preprint on this has not come out yet. What we have is a 5 January blog entry by Sigurdsson.

The work concerns T Pyxidis
and is by a group at Villanova University led by Prof. Edward Sion.
What I get from this is that T Pyxidis is extremely interesting but far enough away not to pose a material threat to Earth.
The explosion they think T Pyxidis is preparing for for is type Ia.
