Discovery of optical outflows and inflows in the black hole candidate GRS 1716-249

V. A. Cúneo, T. Muñoz-Darias, J. Sánchez-Sierras +12

We present optical spectroscopy obtained with the GTC, VLT and SALT telescopes during the decline of the 2016-2017 outburst of the black hole candidate GRS 1716-249 (Nova Oph 1993)…

Kilonova Luminosity Function Constraints based on Zwicky Transient Facility Searches for 13 Neutron Star Mergers

Mansi M. Kasliwal, Shreya Anand, Tomas Ahumada +100

We present a systematic search for optical counterparts to 13 gravitational wave (GW) triggers involving at least one neutron star during LIGO/Virgo's third observing run. We searc…

The post-maximum behaviour of the changing-look Seyfert galaxy NGC 1566

V. L. Oknyansky, H. Winkler, S. S. Tsygankov +6

We present results of the long-term multi-wavelength study of optical, UV and X-ray variability of the nearby changing-look (CL) Seyfert NGC 1566 observed with the Swift Observator…

Optical Observations Reveal Strong Evidence for High Energy Neutrino Progenitor

V. M. Lipunov, V. G. Kornilov, K. K. Zhirkov +32

We present the earliest astronomical observation of a high energy neutrino error box in which its variability was discovered after high-energy neutrinos detection. The one robotic…

The newly discovered Be/X-ray binary Swift J004516.6-734703 in the SMC: witnessing the emergence of a circumstellar disc

J. A. Kennea, M. J. Coe, P. A. Evans +5

We report on the discovery of Swift J004516.6-734703, a Be/X-ray binary system by the Swift SMC Survey, S-CUBED. Swift J004516.6-734703, or SXP 146.6, was found to be exhibiting a…
