An embedded X-ray source shines through the aspherical AT2018cow: revealing the inner workings of the most luminous fast-evolving optical transients
Raffaella Margutti, B. D. Metzger, R. Chornock +41
We present the first extensive radio to gamma-ray observations of a fast-rising blue optical transient (FBOT), AT2018cow, over its first ~100 days. AT2018cow rose over a few days t…
The first tidal disruption flare in ZTF: from photometric selection to multi-wavelength characterization
Sjoert van Velzen, Suvi Gezari, S. Bradley Cenko +37
We present Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) observations of the tidal disruption flare AT2018zr/PS18kh reported by Holoien et al. and detected during ZTF commissioning. The ZTF ligh…
A unified model for tidal disruption events
Lixin Dai, Jonathan C. McKinney, Nathaniel Roth +2
In the past few years wide-field optical and UV transient surveys as well as X-ray telescopes have allowed us to identify a few dozen candidate tidal disruption events (TDEs). Whil…
