Minutes-duration Optical Flares with Supernova Luminosities
Anna Y. Q. Ho, Daniel A. Perley, Ping Chen +74
In recent years, certain luminous extragalactic optical transients have been observed to last only a few days. Their short observed duration implies a different powering mechanism…
Photometric prioritization of neutron star merger candidates
E. O. Ofek, N L. Strotjohann, I. Arcavi +12
Rapid identification of the optical counterparts of Neutron Star (NS) merger events discovered by gravitational wave detectors may require observing a large error region and siftin…
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…
A Systematic Study of Ia-CSM Supernovae from the ZTF Bright Transient Survey
Yashvi Sharma, Jesper Sollerman, Christoffer Fremling +35
Among the supernovae (SNe) that show strong interaction with the circumstellar medium, there is a rare subclass of Type Ia supernovae, SNe Ia-CSM, that show strong narrow hydrogen…
India's first robotic eye for time domain astrophysics: the GROWTH-India telescope
Harsh Kumar, Varun Bhalerao, G. C. Anupama +35
We present the design and performance of the GROWTH-India telescope, a 0.7 m robotic telescope dedicated to time-domain astronomy. The telescope is equipped with a 4k back-illumina…
A Matched Survey for the Enigmatic Low Radio Frequency Transient ILT J225347+862146
Yuping Huang, Marin M. Anderson, Gregg Hallinan +3
Discovered in 2011 with LOFAR, the Jy low-frequency radio transient ILT J225347+862146 heralds a potentially prolific population of radio transients at MHz. However, su…
