Cataclysmic Variables and AM CVn Binaries in SRG/eROSITA + Gaia: Volume Limited Samples, X-ray Luminosity Functions, and Space Densities
Antonio C. Rodriguez, Kareem El-Badry, Valery Suleimanov +22
We present volume-limited samples of cataclysmic variables (CVs) and AM CVn binaries jointly selected from SRG/eROSITA eRASS1 and \textit{Gaia} DR3 using an X-ray + optical color-c…
A 12.4 day periodicity in a close binary system after a supernova
Ping Chen, Avishay Gal-Yam, Jesper Sollerman +37
Neutron stars and stellar-mass black holes are the remnants of massive star explosions. Most massive stars reside in close binary systems, and the interplay between the companion s…
VLASS tidal disruption events with optical flares I: the sample and a comparison to optically-selected TDEs
Jean J. Somalwar, Vikram Ravi, Dillon Z. Dong +11
In this work, we use the Jansky VLA Sky Survey (VLASS) to compile the first sample of six radio-selected tidal disruption events (TDEs) with transient optical counterparts. While w…
The first systematically identified repeating partial tidal disruption event
Jean J. Somalwar, Vikram Ravi, Yuhan Yao +13
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) occur when a star enters the tidal radius of a supermassive black hole (SMBH). If the star only grazes the tidal radius, a fraction of the stellar ma…
An Optically-Discovered Outburst from XTE J1859+226
Eric C. Bellm, Yuankun Wang, Jan van Roestel +13
Using the Zwicky Transient Facility, in 2021 February we identified the first known outburst of the Black Hole X-ray Transient XTE J1859+226 since its discovery in 1999. The outbur…
SN 2021zny: an early flux excess combined with late-time oxygen emission suggests a double white dwarf merger event
Georgios Dimitriadis, Kate Maguire, Viraj R. Karambelkar +28
We present a photometric and spectroscopic analysis of the ultra-luminous and slowly evolving 03fg-like Type Ia SN 2021zny. Our observational campaign starts from hours a…
