Tracking optical variability and outflows across the accretion states of the black hole transient MAXI J1820+070

M. C. Baglio, K. Alabarta, D. M. Russell +10

We present a study of the minute-timescale optical variability and spectroscopic outflow signatures in the black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1820+070 during its 2018 outburst and re-br…

Optical and soft X-ray light-curve analysis during the 2022 eruption of U Scorpii: structural changes in the accretion disk

Katsuki Muraoka, Naoto Kojiguchi, Junpei Ito +52

We present our optical photometric observations of the 2022 eruption of the recurrent nova U Scorpii (U Sco) using 49,152 data points over 70 d following the optical peak. We have…

Chasing the break: Tracing the full evolution of a black hole X-ray binary jet with multi-wavelength spectral modeling

Constanza Echiburú-Trujillo, Alexandra J. Tetarenko, Daryl Haggard +35

Black hole X-ray binaries (BH XRBs) are ideal targets to study the connection between accretion inflow and jet outflow. Here we present quasi-simultaneous, multi-wavelength observa…

The ASAS-SN Bright Supernova Catalog -- V. 2018-2020

K. D. Neumann, T. W. -S. Holoien, C. S. Kochanek +55

We catalog the 443 bright supernovae discovered by the All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (ASAS-SN) in along with the 519 supernovae recovered by ASAS-SN and 516 a…

Optical precursors to X-ray binary outbursts

David M. Russell, D. M. Bramich, F. Lewis +14

Disc instability models predict that for X-ray binaries in quiescence, there should be a brightening of the optical flux prior to an X-ray outburst. Tracking the X-ray variations o…
