New JWST redshifts for the host galaxies of CDF-S XT1 and XT2: understanding their nature
J. Quirola-Vásquez, F. E. Bauer, P. G. Jonker +6
CDF-S XT1 and XT2 are considered two canonical extragalactic fast X-ray transients (FXTs). In this work, we report new constraints on both FXTs, based on recent JWST NIRCam and MIR…
A study in scarlet -- II. Spectroscopic properties of a sample of Intermediate Luminosity Red Transients
G. Valerin, A. Pastorello, E. Mason +65
We investigate the spectroscopic characteristics of Intermediate Luminosity Red Transients (ILRTs), a class of elusive objects with peak luminosity between that of classical novae…
A study in scarlet -- I. Photometric properties of a sample of Intermediate Luminosity Red Transients
G. Valerin, A. Pastorello, A. Reguitti +57
We investigate the photometric characteristics of a sample of Intermediate Luminosity Red Transients (ILRTs), a class of elusive objects with peak luminosity between that of classi…
Redshifts of candidate host galaxies of four fast X-ray transients using VLT/MUSE
Anne Inkenhaag, Peter G. Jonker, Andrew J. Levan +3
Fast X-ray transients (FXTs) are X-ray flares lasting minutes to hours. Multi-wavelength counterparts to these FXTs have been proven hard to find. As a result distance measurements…
Probing a Magnetar Origin for the population of Extragalactic Fast X-ray Transients detected by Chandra
J. Quirola-Vásquez, F. E. Bauer, P. G. Jonker +10
Twenty-two extragalactic fast X-ray transients (FXTs) have now been discovered from two decades of Chandra data (analyzing ~259 Ms of data), with 17 associated with distant galaxie…
