Swift/UVOT discovery of Swift J221951-484240: a UV luminous ambiguous nuclear transient
S. R. Oates, N. P. M. Kuin, M. Nicholl +57
We report the discovery of Swift J221951-484240 (hereafter: J221951), a luminous slow-evolving blue transient that was detected by the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory Ultra-violet/O…
The first X-ray look at SMSS J114447.77-430859.3: the most luminous quasar in the last 9 Gyr
E. S. Kammoun, Z. Igo, J. M. Miller +18
SMSS\,J114447.77-430859.3 () has been identified in the SkyMapper Southern Survey as the most luminous quasar in the last . In this paper, we report on the…
1100 days in the life of the supernova 2018ibb -- The best pair-instability supernova candidate, to date
Steve Schulze, Claes Fransson, Alexandra Kozyreva +63
Abridged - Stars with ZAMS masses between 140 and are thought to explode as pair-instability supernovae (PISNe). During their thermonuclear runaway, PISNe can produce…
A red giant orbiting a black hole
Kareem El-Badry, Hans-Walter Rix, Yvette Cendes +18
We report spectroscopic and photometric follow-up of a dormant black hole (BH) candidate from Gaia DR3. The system, which we call Gaia BH2, contains a red giant a…
SN 2019odp: A Massive Oxygen-Rich Type Ib Supernova
T. Schweyer, J. Sollerman, A. Jerkstrand +18
We present and analyze observations of the Type Ib supernova (SN) 2019odp (a.k.a ZTF19abqwtfu) covering epochs within days of the explosion to the nebular phase at 360 d post-explo…
Discovery of the luminous X-ray ignition eRASSt J234402.9352640; I. Tidal disruption event or a rapid increase in accretion in an active galactic nucleus?
D. Homan, M. Krumpe, A. Markowitz +17
In November 2020, a new, bright object, eRASSt J234402.9352640, was discovered in the second all-sky survey of SRG/eROSITA. The object brightened by a factor of at least 150 in…
