MASTER OT J030227.28+191754.5: an unprecedentedly energetic dwarf nova outburst

Yusuke Tampo, Taichi Kato, Keisuke Isogai +60

We present a detailed study of the MASTER OT J030227.28+191754.5 outburst in 2021-2022, reaching an amplitude of 10.2 mag and a duration of 60 d. The detections of (1) the double-p…

Discovery of a Long-Duration Superflare on a Young Solar-Type Star EK Draconis with Nearly Similar Time Evolution for H and White-Light Emissions

Kosuke Namekata, Hiroyuki Maehara, Satoshi Honda +17

Young solar-type stars are known to show frequent "superflares", which may severely influence the habitable worlds on young planets via intense radiations and coronal mass ejection…

Probable detection of an eruptive filament from a superflare on a solar-type star

Kosuke Namekata, Hiroyuki Maehara, Satoshi Honda +20

Solar flares are often accompanied by filament/prominence eruptions ( K and cm), sometimes leading to coronal mass ejections (CMEs) that direct…

ASASSN-18aan: An Eclipsing SU UMa-type Cataclysmic Variable with a 3.6-hour Orbital Period and a Late G-type Secondary Star

Yasuyuki Wakamatsu, John R. Thorstensen, Naoto Kojiguchi +41

We report photometric and spectroscopic observations of the eclipsing SU UMa-type dwarf nova ASASSN-18aan. We observed the 2018 superoutburst with 2.3 mag brightening and found the…

New constraint on the atmosphere of (50000) Quaoar from a stellar occultation

Ko Arimatsu, Ryou Ohsawa, George L. Hashimoto +35

We report observations of a stellar occultation by the classical Kuiper belt object (50000) Quaoar occurred on 28 June 2019. A single-chord high-cadence (2 Hz) photometry dataset w…

Suzaku Observation of the Metallicity Distribution in the Elliptical Galaxy NGC 4636

Katsuhiro Hayashi, Yasushi Fukazawa, Miyako Tozuka +4

NGC 4636, an X-ray bright elliptical galaxy, was observed for 70 ks with Suzaku. The low background and good energy resolution of the XIS enable us to estimate the foreground Galac…
