eROSITA-RU Tidal Disruption Events with Keck-I/LRIS: Sample Selection, Optical Properties, and Host Galaxy Demographics
Zirui Zhang, Yuhan Yao, Marat Gilfanov +10
We select seventy tidal disruption event (TDE) candidates among X-ray transients discovered during the eROSITA all-sky surveys in the Eastern Galactic hemisphere between December 2…
Optically Overluminous Tidal Disruption Events: Outflow Properties and Implications for Extremely Relativistic Disruptions
Yuhan Yao, Kate D. Alexander, Wenbin Lu +22
Recent studies suggest that tidal disruption events (TDEs) with off-axis jets may manifest as optically overluminous events. To search for jet signatures at late times, we conducte…
Twin peaks: SN 2021uvy and SN 2022hgk in the landscape of double-peaked stripped envelope supernovae
Yashvi Sharma, Jesper Sollerman, William Meynardie +25
In recent years, a class of stripped-envelope supernovae (SESNe) showing two distinct light-curve peaks has emerged, where the first peak cannot be attributed to shock cooling emis…
AT2019cmw: A highly luminous, cooling featureless TDE candidate from the disruption of a high mass star in an early-type galaxy
Jacob L. Wise, Daniel A. Perley, Nikhil Sarin +23
We present optical/UV photometric and spectroscopic observations, as well as X-ray and radio follow-up, of the extraordinary event AT2019cmw. With a peak bolometric luminosity of ~…
Low-Luminosity Type IIP Supernovae from the Zwicky Transient Facility Census of the Local Universe. I: Luminosity Function, Volumetric Rate
Kaustav K. Das, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Christoffer Fremling +51
We present the luminosity function and volumetric rate of a sample of Type IIP supernovae (SNe) from the Zwicky Transient Facility Census of the Local Universe survey (CLU). This i…
Sub-relativistic Outflow and Hours-Timescale Large-amplitude X-ray Dips during Super-Eddington Accretion onto a Low-mass Massive Black Hole in the Tidal Disruption Event AT2022lri
Yuhan Yao, Muryel Guolo, Francesco Tombesi +32
We present the tidal disruption event (TDE) AT2022lri, hosted in a nearby ( Mpc) quiescent galaxy with a low-mass massive black hole ($10^4\,M_\odot < M_{\rm BH} < 10…
The Luminous, Slow-Rising Orphan Afterglow AT2019pim as a Candidate Moderately Relativistic Outflow
Daniel A. Perley, Anna Y. Q. Ho, Michael Fausnaugh +34
Classical gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have two distinct emission episodes: prompt emission from ultrarelativistic ejecta and afterglow from shocked circumstellar material. While both c…
Establishing accretion flares from massive black holes as a source of high-energy neutrinos
Sjoert van Velzen, Robert Stein, Marat Gilfanov +26
The origin of cosmic high-energy neutrinos remains largely unexplained. For high-energy neutrino alerts from IceCube, a coincidence with time-variable emission has been seen for th…
VLBA discovery of a resolved source in the candidate black hole X-ray binary AT2019wey
Nitika Yadlapalli, Vikram Ravi, Yuhan Yao +2
AT2019wey is a Galactic low mass X-ray binary with a candidate black hole accretor first discovered as an optical transient by ATLAS in December 2019. It was then associated with a…
