XMM-Newton-discovered Fast X-ray Transients: Host galaxies and limits on contemporaneous detections of optical counterparts

D. Eappachen, P. G. Jonker, J. Quirola-Vásquez +18

Extragalactic fast X-ray transients (FXTs) are a class of soft (0.3-10 keV) X-ray transients lasting a few hundred seconds to several hours. Several progenitor mechanisms have been…

Evolution of Gas Flows along the Starburst to Post-Starburst to Quiescent Galaxy Sequence

Yang Sun, Gwang-Ho Lee, Ann I. Zabludoff +5

We measure velocity offsets in the NaI (Na D) interstellar medium absorption lines to track how neutral galactic winds change as their host galaxies evolve. Ou…

ODIN: Where Do Lyman-alpha Blobs Live? Contextualizing Blob Environments within the Large-Scale Structure

Vandana Ramakrishnan, Byeongha Moon, Sang Hyeok Im +16

While many Lyman-alpha Blobs (LABs) are found in and around several well-known protoclusters at high redshift, how they trace the underlying large-scale structure is still poorly u…

The Rapidly Spinning Intermediate-Mass Black Hole 3XMM J150052.0+015452

Z. Cao, P. G. Jonker, S. Wen +2

A star tidally disrupted by a black hole can form an accretion disc with a super-Eddington mass accretion rate; the X-ray emission produced by the inner disc provides constraints o…

A Library of Synthetic X-ray Spectra for Fitting Tidal Disruption Events

Sixiang Wen, Peter G. Jonker, Nicholas C. Stone +2

We present a tabulated version of our slim disk model for fitting tidal disruption events (TDEs). We create a synthetic X-ray spectral library by ray-tracing stationary general rel…

The State of the Molecular Gas in Post-Starburst Galaxies

K. Decker French, Adam Smercina, Kate Rowlands +7

The molecular gas in galaxies traces both the fuel for star formation and the processes that can enhance or suppress star formation. Observations of the molecular gas state can thu…
