The Spectroscopic Classification of Astronomical Transients (SCAT) Survey: Overview, Pipeline Description, Initial Results, and Future Plans
M. A. Tucker, B. J. Shappee, M. E. Huber +19
We present the Spectroscopic Classification of Astronomical Transients (SCAT) survey, which is dedicated to spectrophotometric observations of transient objects such as supernovae…
Multiple Flares in the Changing-Look AGN NGC 5273
J. M. M. Neustadt, J. T. Hinkle, C. S. Kochanek +15
NGC 5273 is a known optical and X-ray variable AGN. We analyze new and archival IR, optical, UV, and X-ray data in order to characterize its long-term variability from 2000 to 2022…
Optical/-ray blazar flare correlations: understanding the high-energy emission process using ASAS-SN and Fermi light curves
T. de Jaeger, B. J. Shappee, C. S. Kochanek +7
Using blazar light curves from the optical All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (ASAS-SN) and the -ray \textit{Fermi}-LAT telescope, we performed the most extensive statistic…
Mid-Infrared Echoes of Ambiguous Nuclear Transients Reveal High Dust Covering Fractions: Evidence for Dusty Tori
Jason T. Hinkle
Alongside the recent increase in discoveries of tidal disruption events (TDEs) have come an increasing number of ambiguous nuclear transients (ANTs). These ANTs are characterized b…
Revealing AGNs Through TESS Variability
Helena P. Treiber, Jason T. Hinkle, Michael M. Fausnaugh +7
We used Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) data to identify 29 candidate active galactic nuclei (AGNs) through their optical variability. The high-cadence, high-precision…
On The Unusual Variability of 2MASS J06195260-2903592: A Long-Lived Disk around a Young Ultracool Dwarf
Michael C. Liu, Eugene A. Magnier, Eric Gaidos +10
We present the characterization of the low-gravity M6 dwarf 2MASS J0619-2903 previously identified as an unusual field object based on its strong IR excess and variable near-IR spe…
