A Swift Fix for Nuclear Outbursts
Jason T. Hinkle, Thomas W. -S. Holoien, Benjamin. J. Shappee +1
In November 2020, the Swift team announced an update to the UltraViolet and Optical Telescope calibration to correct for the loss of sensitivity over time. This correction affects…
An Amusing Look at the Host of the Periodic Nuclear Transient ASASSN-14ko Reveals a Second AGN
M. A. Tucker, B. J. Shappee, J. T. Hinkle +10
We present Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) integral-field spectroscopy of ESO 253G003, which hosts a known Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN) and the periodic nuclear transi…
ASASSN-14ko is a Periodic Nuclear Transient in ESO 253-G003
Anna V. Payne, Benjamin J. Shappee, Jason T. Hinkle +24
We present the discovery that ASASSN-14ko is a periodically flaring AGN at the center of the galaxy ESO 253-G003. At the time of its discovery by the All-Sky Automated Survey for S…
Discovery and Follow-up of ASASSN-19dj: An X-ray and UV Luminous TDE in an Extreme Post-Starburst Galaxy
Jason T. Hinkle, T. W. -S. Holoien, K. Auchettl +28
We present observations of ASASSN-19dj, a nearby tidal disruption event (TDE) discovered in the post-starburst galaxy KUG 0810+227 by the All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (A…
The Rise and Fall of ASASSN-18pg: Following a TDE from Early To Late Times
Thomas W. -S. Holoien, Katie Auchettl, Michael A. Tucker +29
We present nearly 500 days of observations of the tidal disruption event ASASSN-18pg, spanning from 54 days before peak light to 441 days after peak light. Our dataset includes X-r…
Examining a Peak-Luminosity/Decline-Rate Relationship for Tidal Disruption Events
Jason T. Hinkle, Thomas W. -S. Holoien, Benjamin. J. Shappee +5
We compare the luminosity, radius, and temperature evolution of the UV/optical blackbodies for 21 well-observed tidal disruption events (TDEs), 8 of which were discovered by the Al…
