We just lost our carrier :(
But its only a total loss if we don't learn anything from it...
During the battle, the antagonists "Demonic Retribution" of PURE, jumped two carriers into the system, right on top of ours - there were the uber-cool jumping effects and everything.
What we are curious about is how they did it without using a Cyno field. No cyno beacon on the overview, no cyno graphic in the game - just the jump-drive graphics.
We were under the impression that to use the jump drive, a cyno field at the destination was an absolute requirement - obviously we were wrong!
Can anyone enlighten us - how do you do this?

They had a cloaked covert ops near you.
And then they just warped to it the old fashioned way...
Remember when your carrier is in the system already it can warp to belts or gates or safespots.

They had to either jump in (using a cyno, perhaps your cyno pilot invited them in) or warp in (no special effects).

Invited?
We had no active Cynos in the system...
Warped?
There were the jump-drive effects...
No, seriously guys - how do you do this?

To reiterate what I said in the OP;
THERE WERE JUMP DRIVE EFFECTS
So please don't say "they must have warped" :)

It's entirely possible that they did in fact have a cloaked ship fitted with a cyno field, which quickly uncloaked and activated it's own cyno field. This allowed the carriers to jump real quick like, but you perhaps didn't notice what had happened because you were busy concentrating on the fact that you just got royally screwed.

It could be you were at a pos and they used their anchored cynosural generator.
