The early afterglow of GRB 190829A

S. Dichiara, E. Troja, V. Lipunov +19

GRB 190829A at z=0.0785 is the fourth closest long GRB ever detected by the Neil Gehrels Swift observatory, and the third confirmed case with a very high energy component. We prese…

Large optical modulations during 2018 outburst of MAXI J1820+070 reveal evolution of warped accretion disc through X-ray state change

Jessymol K. Thomas, Philip A. Charles, David A. H. Buckley +5

The black-hole X-ray transient MAXI J1820+07 (=ASSASN-18ey) discovered in March 2018 was one of the optically brightest ever seen, which has resulted in very detailed optical outbu…

The Be/neutron star system Swift J004929.5-733107 in the Small Magellanic Cloud -- X-ray characteristics and optical counterpart candidates

M. J. Coe, J. A. Kennea, P. A. Evans +4

Swift J004929.5-733107 is an X-ray source in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) that has been reported several times, but the optical counterpart has been unclear due to source confu…

Radio and optical observations of the possible AE Aqr twin, LAMOST J024048.51+195226.9

M. L. Pretorius, D. M. Hewitt, P. A. Woudt +8

Thorstensen (2020) recently argued that the cataclysmic variable (CV) LAMOST J024048.51+195226.9 may be a twin to the unique magnetic propeller system AE Aqr. If this is the case,…
