ATLAS22kjn (AT 2022fpx): A Coronal Line Emitter with an Early Light Curve Bump and Mid-Infrared Dust Echo
Athena C. Engholm, Jason T. Hinkle, Benjamin J. Shappee +14
We present an analysis of ATLAS22kjn (AT 2022fpx), whose high-ionisation coronal lines (CLs) and pre-peak light curve bump provide distinctive opportunities to investigate the phys…
AT2021yky: A Fast-Rising Optical Transient with Evolving Broad Hydrogen Emission Consistent with an Ambiguous Nuclear Transient
Paarmita Pandey, Jason T. Hinkle, Christopher Kochanek +14
Nuclear transients are powerful probes of supermassive black hole properties, offering insight into black hole mass, accretion physics, and the structure of galactic nuclei. Among…
COS2035: Extending COS/FUV Operations Through the 2030s
Marc Rafelski, David Sahnow, Christian I. Johnson +29
The paper outlines the COS2035 plan to keep the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph far‑ultraviolet detector functional into the 2030s by introducing new calibration methods, a flexible li…
The Hubble Advanced Spectral Product (HASP) Program
John Debes, Ravi Sankrit, Travis Fischer +39
The Hubble Advanced Spectral Products (HASP) program is designed to robustly coadd Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) and Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) spectra within…
Overview of the New Hubble Spectroscopic Legacy Archive
Ravi Sankrit, John Debes, Matthew Burger +34
The new Hubble Spectroscopic Legacy Archive (HSLA) provides coadded spectra of individual targets that have been observed with the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) and the Space T…
SCAT Data Release 1: 1810 optical spectra of 1330 transients
Michael A. Tucker, Mark E. Huber, Benjamin J. Shappee +18
We present the first data release (DR1) of the Spectroscopic Classification of Astronomical Transients (SCAT) survey, covering the first years of observations (March 20…
