Evidence for a Delayed UV Counterpart to X-ray Quasi-periodic Eruptions in Ansky
Hengxiao Guo, Zhen Yan, Ya-Ping Li +15
X-ray quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) represent a novel population of extreme, repeating nuclear transients whose physical origins remain debated. A defining characteristic of QPEs…
A positive period derivative in the quasi-periodic eruptions of ZTF19acnskyy
Joheen Chakraborty, Saul A. Rappaport, Riccardo Arcodia +9
We report the first direct measurement of the period derivative in a quasi-periodic eruption (QPE), finding a smoothly increasing period with $\dot{P}\approx (1.7\pm 0.02)\times10^…
Lost and Found - A gallery of overlooked optical nuclear transients from the ZTF archive
E. Quintin, E. Russeil, M. Llamas Lanza +12
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) correspond to the destruction of a star by the tidal forces around a black hole, leading to outbursts which can last from months to years. These tran…
NICER observations reveal doubled timescales in Ansky's quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs)
L. Hernández-García, P. Sánchez-Sáez, J. Chakraborty +11
Quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) are recurring X-ray bursts originating from the vicinity of supermassive black holes, but their driving mechanisms remain under debate. This study a…
A new Bowen Fluorescence Flare and Extreme Coronal Line Emitter discovered by SRG/eROSITA
Pietro Baldini, Arne Rau, Riccardo Arcodia +19
The nuclear transient eRASSt J012026.5-292727 (J012026 hereafter) was discovered in the second SRG/eROSITA all-sky survey (eRASS2). The source appeared more than one order of magni…
Multiwavelength monitoring of the nucleus in PBC J2333.9-2343: the giant radio galaxy with a blazar-like core
L. Hernández-García, F. Panessa, G. Bruni +12
PBC J2333.9-2343 is a giant radio galaxy at z = 0.047 with a bright central core associated to a blazar nucleus. If the nuclear blazar jet is a new phase of the jet activity, then…
