Multi-wavelength Photometry and Progenitor Analysis of the Nova V906 Car

Jerrick Wee, Nadejda Blagorodnova, Bryan Edward Penprase +12

We present optical and infrared photometry of the classical nova V906 Car, also known as Nova Car 2018 and ASASSN-18fv, discovered by ASASS-SN survey on 16.32 March 2018 UT (MJD 58…

The Fast, Luminous Ultraviolet Transient AT2018cow: Extreme Supernova, or Disruption of a Star by an Intermediate-Mass Black Hole?

Daniel A. Perley, Paolo A. Mazzali, Lin Yan +60

Wide-field optical surveys have begun to uncover large samples of fast (t_rise < 5d), luminous (M_peak < -18), blue transients. While commonly attributed to the breakout of a super…

Black Hole Binaries in Quiescence

Charles D. Bailyn

I discuss some of what is known and unknown about the behavior of black hole binary systems in the quiescent accretion state. Quiescence is important for several reasons: 1) the do…

Wind, jet, hybrid corona and hard X-ray flares: multiwavelength evolution of GRO J1655-40 during the 2005 outburst rise

E. Kalemci, M. C. Begelman, T. J. Maccarone +4

We have investigated the complex multiwavelength evolution of GRO J1655-40 during the rise of its 2005 outburst. We detected two hard X-ray flares, the first one during the transit…

The Mass of the Black Hole in the X-ray Binary Nova Muscae 1991

Jianfeng Wu, Jerome A. Orosz, Jeffrey E. McClintock +4

The optical counterpart of the black-hole soft X-ray transient Nova Muscae 1991 has brightened by mag since its return to quiescence 23 years ago. We present the f…

The SMARTS Multi-epoch Optical Spectroscopy Atlas (SAMOSA): Using Emission Line Variability to Probe the Location of the Blazar Gamma-emitting Region

Jedidah C. Isler, C. M. Urry, C. Bailyn +6

We present multi-epoch optical spectroscopy of seven southern Fermi-monitored blazars from 2008 - 2013 using the Small and Medium Aperture Research Telescope System (SMARTS), with…
