Update on the Magellan InfraRed Multi-Object Spectrograph (MIRMOS)
Maren Cosens, Nicholas P. Konidaris, Gwen C. Rudie +21
The paper describes the design of MIRMOS, a new infrared multi‑object and integral‑field spectrograph for the 6.5 m Magellan telescopes, detailing its wavelength coverage, slit‑mas…
Update on the slicer IFU for the Magellan InfraRed Multi-Object Spectrograph (MIRMOS)
Maren Cosens, Patricio Schurter, Nicholas P. Konidaris +18
The paper reports an updated design for the image slicer integral field unit (IFU) of the upcoming Magellan InfraRed Multi-Object Spectrograph (MIRMOS), describing a shift from a f…
A spectacular multi-wavelength transient associated with an off-axis relativistic jet
Delina Levine, Gregg Hallinan, Jean J. Somalwar +10
Many of the most luminous extragalactic transients originate from the accretion of material onto a black hole (BH) via core-collapse, stellar mergers, or the tidal disruption of a…
A sample of short-lived Galactic radio transients from ASKAP VAST
Akash Anumarlapudi, David L. Kaplan, Natasha Hurley Walker +6
Galactic radio transients (GRTs) are mysterious short-lived (~days to months) radio transients that are quiet at all other wavelengths. Until now, roughly half a dozen such sources…
A fast powerful X-ray transient from possible tidal disruption of a white dwarf
Dongyue Li, Wenda Zhang, Jun Yang +97
Stars captured by black holes (BHs) can be torn apart by strong tidal forces, producing electromagnetic flares. To date, more than 100 tidal disruption events (TDEs) have been obse…
LATIS Data Release: Spectra of Galaxies, Redshifts, and Intergalactic Medium Tomography Maps
Andrew B. Newman, Gwen C. Rudie, Guillermo A. Blanc +8
We present the data release of the Ly Tomography IMACS Survey (LATIS), one of the largest optical spectroscopic surveys of faint high-redshift galaxies. The survey provides 740…
