The ZTF Source Classification Project: III. A Catalog of Variable Sources
Brian F. Healy, Michael W. Coughlin, Ashish A. Mahabal +22
The classification of variable objects provides insight into a wide variety of astrophysics ranging from stellar interiors to galactic nuclei. The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) p…
A rotating white dwarf shows different compositions on its opposite faces
Ilaria Caiazzo, Kevin B. Burdge, Pier-Emmanuel Tremblay +35
White dwarfs, the extremely dense remnants left behind by most stars after their death, are characterised by a mass comparable to that of the Sun compressed into the size of an Ear…
SRGeJ045359.9+622444: A 55-min Period Eclipsing AM CVn Discovered from a Joint SRG/eROSITA + ZTF Search
Antonio C. Rodriguez, Ilkham Galiullin, Marat Gilfanov +24
AM CVn systems are ultra-compact binaries where a white dwarf accretes from a helium-rich degenerate or semi-degenerate donor. Some AM CVn systems will be among the loudest sources…
A Unique Low-Mass Ratio Contact Eclipsing Binary System under the Period Cut-Off
A. Papageorgiou, P. -E. Christopoulou, E. Lalounta +5
We present a multi-band photometric analysis of CRTS J163819.6+03485, the first low mass ratio (LMR) contact binary system with a period under the contact binary (CB) period limit.…
A New Forced Photometry Service for the Zwicky Transient Facility
Frank J. Masci, Russ R. Laher, Benjamin Rusholme +6
We describe the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) Forced Photometry Service (ZFPS) as developed and maintained by the ZTF Science Data System Team at IPAC/Caltech. The service is ope…
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…
