Quasi-periodic X-ray eruptions years after a nearby tidal disruption event
M. Nicholl, D. R. Pasham, A. Mummery +61
Quasi-periodic Eruptions (QPEs) are luminous bursts of soft X-rays from the nuclei of galaxies, repeating on timescales of hours to weeks. The mechanism behind these rare systems i…
Identification of the optical counterpart of the fast X-ray transient EP240414a
S. Srivastav, T. -W. Chen, J. H. Gillanders +26
Fast X-ray transients (FXTs) are extragalactic bursts of X-rays first identified in archival X-ray data, and now routinely discovered by the Einstein Probe in real time, which is c…
Analysis of the JWST spectra of the kilonova AT 2023vfi accompanying GRB 230307A
J. H. Gillanders, S. J. Smartt
Kilonovae are key to advancing our understanding of r-process nucleosynthesis. To date, only two kilonovae have been spectroscopically observed, AT 2017gfo and AT 2023vfi. Here, we…
SN 2023zaw: the low-energy explosion of an ultra-stripped star
T. Moore, J. H. Gillanders, M. Nicholl +26
Most stripped-envelope supernova progenitors are thought to be formed through binary interaction, losing hydrogen and/or helium from their outer layers. Ultra-stripped supernovae a…
Discovery of the optical and radio counterpart to the fast X-ray transient EP240315a
J. H. Gillanders, L. Rhodes, S. Srivastav +36
Fast X-ray Transients (FXTs) are extragalactic bursts of soft X-rays first identified >10 years ago. Since then, nearly 40 events have been discovered, although almost all of these…
