Exploring the Cosmic Evolution of Habitability with Galaxy Merger Trees

E. R. Stanway, M. J. Hoskin, M. A. Lane +4

We combine inferred galaxy properties from a semi-analytic galaxy evolution model incorporating dark matter halo merger trees with new estimates of supernova and gamma ray burst ra…

Late-time observations of the relativistic tidal disruption flare candidate Swift J1112.2-8238

G. C. Brown, A. J. Levan, E. R. Stanway +6

We present late-time follow-up of the relativistic tidal disruption flare candidate Swift J1112.2-8238. We confirm the previously determined redshift of based o…

Late time multi wavelength observations of Swift J1644+5734: A luminous optical/IR bump and quiescent X-ray emission

A. J. Levan, N. R. Tanvir, G. C. Brown +10

We present late-time multi-wavelength observations of Swift J1644+57, suggested to be a relativistic tidal disruption flare (TDF). Our observations extend to >4 years from discover…

Swift J1112.2-8238: A Candidate Relativistic Tidal Disruption Flare

G. C. Brown, A. J. Levan, E. R. Stanway +5

We present observations of Swift J1112.2-8238, and identify it as a candidate relativistic tidal disruption flare (rTDF). The outburst was first detected by Swift/BAT in June 2011…

A new population of ultra-long duration gamma-ray bursts

A. J. Levan, N. R. Tanvir, R. L. C. Starling +38

We present comprehensive multiwavelength observations of three gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with durations of several thousand seconds. We demonstrate that these events are extragalacti…
