NEural Engine for Discovering Luminous Events (NEEDLE): identifying rare transient candidates in real time from host galaxy images

Xinyue Sheng, Matt Nicholl, Ken W. Smith +6

Known for their efficiency in analyzing large data sets, machine learning classifiers are widely used in wide-field sky surveys. The upcoming Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy of Ti…

SN 2022jli: a type Ic supernova with periodic modulation of its light curve and an unusually long rise

Moore T., Smartt S. J., Nicholl M. +42

We present multi-wavelength photometry and spectroscopy of SN 2022jli, an unprecedented Type Ic supernova discovered in the galaxy NGC 157 at a distance of 23 Mpc. The mu…

GW190425: Pan-STARRS and ATLAS coverage of the skymap and limits on optical emission associated with FRB190425

S. J. Smartt, M. Nicholl, S. Srivastav +32

GW190425 is the second of only two binary neutron star (BNS) merger events to be significantly detected by the LIGO-Virgo- Kagra gravitational wave detectors. With a detection only…

JWST detection of heavy neutron capture elements in a compact object merger

A. Levan, B. P. Gompertz, O. S. Salafia +80

The mergers of binary compact objects such as neutron stars and black holes are of central interest to several areas of astrophysics, including as the progenitors of gamma-ray burs…

End-to-end study of the home and genealogy of the first binary neutron star merger

Heloise F. Stevance, Jan J. Eldridge, Elizabeth R. Stanway +3

Binary neutron star mergers are one of the ultimate events of massive binary star evolution, and our understanding of their parent system is still in its infancy. Upcoming gravitat…
