AT 2018cow at ~5 years: additional evidence for a tidal disruption origin

Anne Inkenhaag, Andrew J. Levan, Andrew Mummery +1

The Luminous Fast Blue Optical Transient (LFBOT) AT 2018cow is the prototype of its class with an extensive set of multi-wavelength observations. Despite a rich data set there is,…

A study on late time UV-emission in core collapse supernovae and the implications for the peculiar transient AT2018cow

Anne Inkenhaag, Peter G. Jonker, Andrew J. Levan +4

Over time, core-collapse supernova (CCSN) spectra become redder due to dust formation and cooling of the SN ejecta. A UV detection of a CCSN at late times thus indicates an additio…

Redshifts of candidate host galaxies of four fast X-ray transients using VLT/MUSE

Anne Inkenhaag, Peter G. Jonker, Andrew J. Levan +3

Fast X-ray transients (FXTs) are X-ray flares lasting minutes to hours. Multi-wavelength counterparts to these FXTs have been proven hard to find. As a result distance measurements…

XMM-Newton-discovered Fast X-ray Transients: Host galaxies and limits on contemporaneous detections of optical counterparts

D. Eappachen, P. G. Jonker, J. Quirola-Vásquez +18

Extragalactic fast X-ray transients (FXTs) are a class of soft (0.3-10 keV) X-ray transients lasting a few hundred seconds to several hours. Several progenitor mechanisms have been…

Late time HST UV and optical observations of AT~2018cow: extracting a cow from its background

Anne Inkenhaag, Peter G. Jonker, Andrew J. Levan +4

The bright, blue, rapidly evolving AT2018cow is a well-studied peculiar extragalactic transient. Despite an abundance of multi-wavelength data, there still is no consensus on the n…

A long-duration gamma-ray burst of dynamical origin from the nucleus of an ancient galaxy

Andrew J. Levan, Daniele B. Malesani, Benjamin P. Gompertz +29

The majority of long duration ( s) gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are believed to arise from the collapse of massive stars \cite{Hjorth+03}, with a small proportion created from the m…
