NGTS-39 b: A 58 d transiting warm Jupiter in an eccentric orbit
Ioannis Apergis, Daniel Bayliss, Solène Ulmer-Moll +53
We report the discovery and characterisation of NGTS-39 b (TIC 453147896 b), a warm Jupiter transiting a Sun-like star on a 58.2 day, eccentric (e = 0.386 +/- 0.019) orbit. NGTS-39…
Optimising transient discovery with Swift-XRT
S. Srivastava, P. A. Evans, M. R. Goad +1
The Living Swift-XRT Point Source Catalogue (LSXPS) enables near real-time searches for X-ray transients. Many detected candidates are faint, often near the XRT detection limit, an…
Modelling the diffuse continuum emission: the NLS1 Mrk 110
Michael R. Goad, Kirk T. Korista, Edward M. Cackett
We present detailed model diffuse continuum (DC) plus hydrogen emission line templates from a summation over a broad range in hydrogen gas densities. We address the effect of finit…
TIC-65910228 b / NGTS-38 b, a 180 day transiting warm super-Jupiter
Toby Rodel, Solène Ulmer-Moll, Samuel Gill +63
We present the discovery of TIC-65910228 b / NGTS-38 b, a giant exoplanet with a radius of R and a mass of M on a long-…
Understanding the Broad-line Region of Active Galactic Nuclei with Photoionization. II. Slim disks, Self-shadowing, and BLR sizes
Qiaoya Wu, Yue Shen, Chris Done +2
Reverberation-mapping (RM) measurements have revealed that high-accretion-rate active galactic nuclei (AGNs) systematically lie below the canonical broad-line region (BLR) radius -…
The unusually red delay spectrum of the low-mass black hole AGN NGC\,4051 as revealed by intensive continuum reverberation mapping with the Las Cumbres Observatory
Marcin Marculewicz, Juan V. Hernández Santisteban, Keith Horne +12
We present a two-year optical reverberation mapping campaign of NGC 4051, an active galactic nucleus (AGN) hosting a low-mass black hole (), using daily observ…
