A Faint Progenitor System for the Faint Supernova 2024vjm
Erez A. Zimmerman, Avishay Gal-Yam, Paul J. Groot +68
Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) are well known for their role as standardizable cosmological candles. Their uniformity is credited to their single origin as thermonuclear explosions of…
Image plane detection of FRB121102 with the MeerKAT radio telescope
J. C. Andrianjafy, N. Heeralall-Issur, A. A. Deshpande +9
We present the analysis of radio interferometric 2-s images from a MeerKAT observation of the repeating fast radio burst FRB121102 on September 2019, during which 11 distinct pulse…
Radio observations of the Black Hole X-ray Binary EXO 1846-031 re-awakening from a 34-year slumber
D. R. A. Williams, S. E. Motta, R. Fender +15
We present radio [1.3 GHz MeerKAT, 4-8 GHz Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) and 15.5 GHz Arcminute Microkelvin Imager Large Array (AMI-LA)] and X-ray (Swift and MAXI) data fro…
Triggering micronovae through magnetically confined accretion flows in accreting white dwarfs
S. Scaringi, P. J. Groot, C. Knigge +5
Rapid bursts at optical wavelengths have been reported for several accreting white dwarfs, where the optical luminosity can increase by up to a factor 30 in less than an hour fadin…
Localised thermonuclear bursts from accreting magnetic white dwarfs
S. Scaringi, P. J. Groot, C. Knigge +16
Nova explosions are caused by global thermonuclear runaways triggered in the surface layers of accreting white dwarfs. It has been predicted that localised thermonuclear bursts on…
21 new long-term variables in the GX 339-4 field: two years of MeerKAT monitoring
L. N. Driessen, B. W. Stappers, E. Tremou +14
We present 21 new long-term variable radio sources found commensally in two years of weekly MeerKAT monitoring of the low-mass X-ray binary GX 339-4. The new sources vary on time s…
