Light-Curve Structure and Halpha Line Formation in the Tidal Disruption Event AT 2019azh
Sara Faris, Iair Arcavi, Lydia Makrygianni +33
AT 2019azh is a H+He tidal disruption event (TDE) with one of the most extensive ultraviolet and optical data sets available to date. We present our photometric and spectroscopic o…
Monthly quasi-periodic eruptions from repeated stellar disruption by a massive black hole
P. A. Evans, C. J. Nixon, S. Campana +12
In recent years, searches of archival X-ray data have revealed galaxies exhibiting nuclear quasi-periodic eruptions with periods of several hours. These are reminiscent of the tida…
AT2022aedm and a new class of luminous, fast-cooling transients in elliptical galaxies
M. Nicholl, S. Srivastav, M. D. Fulton +49
We present the discovery and extensive follow-up of a remarkable fast-evolving optical transient, AT2022aedm, detected by the Asteroid Terrestrial impact Last Alert Survey (ATLAS).…
Delayed Appearance and Evolution of Coronal Lines in the TDE AT2019qiz
P. Short, A. Lawrence, M. Nicholl +17
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) occur when a star gets torn apart by a supermassive black hole as it crosses its tidal radius. We present late-time optical and X-ray observations of…
Broad-emission-line dominated hydrogen-rich luminous supernovae
P. J. Pessi, J. P. Anderson, G. Folatelli +27
Hydrogen-rich Type II supernovae (SNe II) are the most frequently observed class of core-collapse SNe (CCSNe). However, most studies that analyse large samples of SNe II lack event…
SN 2023emq: a flash-ionised Ibn supernova with possible CIII emissio
M. Pursiainen, G. Leloudas, S. Schulze +16
SN 2023emq is a fast-evolving transient initially classified as a rare Type Icn supernova (SN), interacting with a H- and He-free circumstellar medium (CSM) around maximum light. S…
Multiwavelength observations of the extraordinary accretion event AT2021lwx
P. Wiseman, Y. Wang, S. Hönig +43
We present observations from X-ray to mid-infrared wavelengths of the most energetic non-quasar transient ever observed, AT2021lwx. Our data show a single optical brightening by a…
The broad-lined Type-Ic supernova SN 2022xxf with extraordinary two-humped light curves
H. Kuncarayakti, J. Sollerman, L. Izzo +60
We report on our study of supernova (SN) 2022xxf based on observations obtained during the first four months of its evolution. The light curves (LCs) display two humps of similar m…
