Discovery of eRASSt J192932.9-560346: a bright, two-pole accreting, eclipsing polar

Axel Schwope, David A. H. Buckley, Adam Malyali +5

We report the discovery of a bright (V ~ 15), eclipsing, two-pole accreting magnetic cataclysmic variable (CV), a polar, as counterpart of the eROSITA and Gaia transients eRASSt 19…

Systematic evaluation of variability detection methods for eROSITA

Johannes Buchner, Thomas Boller, David Bogensberger +5

The reliability of detecting source variability in sparsely and irregularly sampled X-ray light curves is investigated. This is motivated by the unprecedented survey capabilities o…

Establishing the X-ray Source Detection Strategy for eROSITA with Simulations

Teng Liu, Andrea Merloni, Johan Comparat +25

The eROSITA X-ray telescope on board the Spectrum-Roentgen-Gamma (SRG) satellite has started to detect new X-ray sources over the full sky at an unprecedented rate. Understanding t…

The eROSITA Final Equatorial-Depth Survey (eFEDS): Identification and characterization of the counterparts to the point-like sources

M. Salvato, J. Wolf, T. Dwelly +41

In November 2019, eROSITA on board of SRG observatory started to map the entire sky in X-rays. After the 4-year survey program, it will reach flux limits about 25 times deeper than…

X-ray Quasi-Periodic Eruptions from two previously quiescent galaxies

R. Arcodia, A. Merloni, K. Nandra +21

Quasi-Periodic Eruptions (QPEs) are extreme high-amplitude bursts of X-ray radiation recurring every few hours and originating near the central supermassive black holes in galactic…

AT 2019avd: A novel addition to the diverse population of nuclear transients

A. Malyali, A. Rau, A. Merloni +29

We report on SRG/eROSITA, ZTF, ASAS-SN, Las Cumbres, NEOWISE-R, and Swift XRT/UVOT observations of the unique ongoing event AT 2019avd, located in the nucleus of a previously inact…
