Optical observations of candidate host galaxies of eight fast X-ray transients
Agnes P. C. van Hoof, Peter G. Jonker, Lieke Tommel +15
Fast X-ray transients (FXTs) are extragalactic flashes of X-rays with a typical duration of minutes to hours for which a variety of origins has been proposed and observed. To decip…
An X-ray and optical spectral study of the changing-look narrow-line Seyfert 1 2MASX J0413-0050
A. Vietri, A. Tortosa, D. Ilić +12
Active galactic nuclei (AGN) showing dramatic spectral and flux variations, either due to changes in the accretion rate (changing-state, CS-AGN) of the supermassive black hole or i…
The X-ray weakness of Little Red Dots and JWST-selected AGN: comparison with local AGN in different accretion regimes
A. Tortosa, C. Ricci, P. Du +5
We investigate the origin of the observed X-ray weakness in high z LRDs and other JWST-selected broad line AGN by comparing their X-ray and optical properties with those of a diver…
NOCTURNE. III. Unidentified variable emission in the nuclear regions of PKS 2153-69
Miguel Coloma Puga, Marco Berton, Pierpaolo Condò +4
Historically, the study of the central regions of Type 1 AGN has been limited by the combination of the host galaxy spectrum with strong emission from the accretion disk and NLR/BL…
SN 2016iog: A fast declining Type II-L supernova with an ultra-faint tail, persistently interacting with circumstellar material
Z. -H. Peng, S. Benetti, Y. -Z. Cai +26
We present optical photometric and spectroscopic observations of the rapidly declining Type IIL supernova (SN) 2016iog. SN 2016iog reached its peak 14 days after explosion,…
Evidence for rapid disk formation and reprocessing in the X-ray bright tidal disruption event AT 2018fyk
T. Wevers, D. R. Pasham, S. van Velzen +15
We present optical spectroscopic and Swift UVOT/XRT observations of the X-ray and UV/optical bright tidal disruption event (TDE) AT 2018fyk/ASASSN-18ul discovered by ASAS-SN. The S…
Dead or Alive? Long-term evolution of SN 2015bh (SNhunt275)
N. Elias-Rosa, A. Pastorello, S. Benetti +37
Supernova (SN) 2015bh (or SNhunt275) was discovered in NGC 2770 on 2015 February with an absolute magnitude of Mr ~ -13.4 mag, and was initially classified as a SN impostor. Here w…
