SNe 2013K and 2013am: observed and physical properties of two slow, normal Type IIP events
L. Tomasella, E. Cappellaro, M. L. Pumo +28
We present one year of optical and near-infrared photometry and spectroscopy of the Type IIP SNe 2013K and 2013am. Both objects are affected by significant extinction, due to their…
ALMA and GMRT constraints on the off-axis gamma-ray burst 170817A from the binary neutron star merger GW170817
Sam Kim, Steve Schulze, Lekshmi Resmi +31
Binary neutron-star mergers (BNSMs) are among the most readily detectable gravitational-wave (GW) sources with LIGO. They are also thought to produce short -ray bursts (SGRBs),…
A kilonova as the electromagnetic counterpart to a gravitational-wave source
S. J. Smartt, T. -W. Chen, A. Jerkstrand +118
Gravitational waves were discovered with the detection of binary black hole mergers and they should also be detectable from lower mass neutron star mergers. These are predicted to…
The NuSTAR Extragalactic Survey: Average broad-band X-ray spectral properties of the NuSTAR detected AGN
A. Del Moro, D. M. Alexander, J. A. Aird +18
We present a study of the average X-ray spectral properties of the sources detected by the NuSTAR extragalactic survey, comprising observations of the E-CDFS, EGS and COSMOS fields…
The close environments of accreting massive black holes are shaped by radiative feedback
Claudio Ricci, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Michael J. Koss +13
The large majority of the accreting supermassive black holes in the Universe are obscured by large columns of gas and dust. The location and evolution of this obscuring material ha…
BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey - V. X-ray properties of the Swift/BAT 70-month AGN catalog
Claudio Ricci, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Michael J. Koss +18
Hard X-ray ( keV) observations of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) can shed light on some of the most obscured episodes of accretion onto supermassive black holes. The 70-mont…
NuSTAR Resolves the First Dual AGN above 10 keV in SWIFT J2028.5+2543
Michael J. Koss, Ana Glidden, Mislav Balokovic +19
We have discovered heavy obscuration in the dual active galactic nucleus (AGN) in the Swift/Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) source SWIFT J2028.5+2543 using Nuclear Spectroscopic Telesc…
The NuSTAR Serendipitous Survey: Hunting for The Most Extreme Obscured AGN at >10 keV
G. B. Lansbury, D. M. Alexander, J. Aird +27
We identify sources with extremely hard X-ray spectra (i.e., with photon indices of Gamma<0.6 in the 13 sq. deg. NuSTAR serendipitous survey, to search for the most highly obscured…
X-ray bolometric corrections for Compton-thick active galactic nuclei
M. Brightman, M. Baloković, D. R. Ballantyne +16
We present X-ray bolometric correction factors, (), for Compton-thick (CT) active galactic nuclei (AGN) with the aim of testing AGN torus models, prob…
Black-Hole Growth is Mainly Linked to Host-Galaxy Stellar Mass rather than Star Formation Rate
G. Yang, C. -T. J. Chen, F. Vito +14
We investigate the dependence of black-hole accretion rate (BHAR) on host-galaxy star formation rate (SFR) and stellar mass () in the CANDELS/GOODS-South field in the redshift…
The detection of an extremely bright fast radio burst in a phased array feed survey
Keith Bannister, Ryan Shannon, Jean-Pierre Macquart +53
We report the detection of an ultra-bright fast radio burst (FRB) from a modest, 3.4-day pilot survey with the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder. The survey was conducte…
A New, Faint Population of X-ray Transients
F. E. Bauer, E. Treister, K. Schawinski +22
We report on the detection of a remarkable new fast high-energy transient found in the Chandra Deep Field-South, robustly associated with a faint ( mag, $z_{\rm ph}…
Universal small-scale structure in turbulence driven by magnetorotational instability
Vladimir Zhdankin, Justin Walker, Stanislav Boldyrev +1
The intermittent small-scale structure of turbulence governs energy dissipation in many astrophysical plasmas and is often believed to have universal properties for sufficiently la…
A New Compton-thick AGN in our Cosmic Backyard: Unveiling the Buried Nucleus in NGC 1448 with NuSTAR
A. Annuar, D. M. Alexander, P. Gandhi +22
NGC 1448 is one of the nearest luminous galaxies ( 10) to ours ( 0.00390), and yet the active galactic nucleus (AGN) it hosts was only recent…
Growing supermassive black holes in the late stages of galaxy mergers are heavily obscured
C. Ricci., F. E. Bauer, E. Treister +10
Mergers of galaxies are thought to cause significant gas inflows to the inner parsecs, which can activate rapid accretion onto supermassive black holes (SMBHs), giving rise to Acti…
