phoptic -- a Python package for reducing astronomical images
Zackery A. Irving, Noel Castro Segura, Diego Altamirano +6
Publicly-available photometry pipelines make astronomical data reduction accessible to non-experts, reduce the margin for human error, and enable reproducible reduction. In many ca…
An eclipsing 8.56 minute orbital period mass-transferring binary
Emma T. Chickles, Joheen Chakraborty, Kevin B. Burdge +34
We report the discovery of ATLAS J101342.5-451656.8 (hereafter ATLAS J1013-4516), an 8.56 minute orbital period mass transferring AM Canum Venaticorum binary with mean Gaia magnitu…
Comprehensive Radio Monitoring of the Black Hole X-ray Binary Swift J1727.81613 during its 20232024 Outburst
Andrew K. Hughes, Francesco Carotenuto, Thomas D. Russell +39
This work presents comprehensive multi-frequency radio monitoring of the black hole low-mass X-ray binary Swift J1727.81613, which underwent its first recorded outburst after it…
Ultraviolet spectroscopy of the black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1820+070 across a state transition
Maria Georganti, Christian Knigge, Noel Castro Segura +8
We present ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopic observations covering three distinct accretion states of the low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) MAXI J1820+070: the luminous hard state, a hard-…
Expanding the ultracompacts: gravitational wave-driven mass transfer in the shortest-period binaries with accretion disks
Joheen Chakraborty, Kevin B. Burdge, Saul A. Rappaport +35
We report the discovery of three ultracompact binary white dwarf systems hosting accretion disks, with orbital periods of 7.95, 8.68, and 13.15 minutes. This significantly augments…
Simultaneous Optical and X-ray Detection of a Thermonuclear Burst in the 2024 Outburst of EXO 0748-676
Amy H. Knight, Lauren Rhodes, Douglas J. K. Buisson +5
The neutron star low-mass X-ray binary, EXO 0748--676, recently returned to outburst after a 16 year-long quiescence. Since its return, there has been a global effort to cap…
