AT2025agpz in Rubin commissioning data: distinguishing a luminous interacting supernova from nuclear transients in compact galaxies
C. R. Angus, M. Quilt, H. F. Stevance +37
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time will discover unprecedented numbers of rare, long-lived optical transients, many of which will be too faint or too n…
ATLAS100 -- I. A volume-limited sample of supernovae and related transients within 100 Mpc
Shubham Srivastav, Stephen J. Smartt, Thomas Moore +29
We present ATLAS100 -- a sample of 1729 supernovae and other explosive optical transients within Mpc observed by the ATLAS survey over a span of 5.75 years from 2017 Sep…
AT2024lhc and AT2024kmq in the landscape of featureless tidal disruption events
Yuhan Yao, Ryan Chornock, Andrew Mummery +39
We study AT2024kmq and AT2024lhc, two tidal disruption events (TDEs) with blue featureless spectra associated with high-mass black holes (). Both even…
MALLORN: Many Artificial LSST Lightcurves based on Observations of Real Nuclear transients
Dylan Magill, Matt Nicholl, Vysakh Anilkumar +10
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory's 10-Year Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) is expected to produce a hundredfold increase in the number of transients we observe. However, there…
Unprecedented early flux excess in the hybrid 02es-like type Ia supernova 2022ywc indicates interaction with circumstellar material
Shubham Srivastav, T. Moore, M. Nicholl +20
We present optical photometric and spectroscopic observations of the 02es-like type Ia supernova (SN) 2022ywc. The transient occurred in the outskirts of an elliptical host galaxy…
AT2022aedm and a new class of luminous, fast-cooling transients in elliptical galaxies
M. Nicholl, S. Srivastav, M. D. Fulton +49
We present the discovery and extensive follow-up of a remarkable fast-evolving optical transient, AT2022aedm, detected by the Asteroid Terrestrial impact Last Alert Survey (ATLAS).…
The Birth of a Relativistic Jet Following the Disruption of a Star by a Cosmological Black Hole
Dheeraj R. Pasham, Matteo Lucchini, Tanmoy Laskar +63
A black hole can launch a powerful relativistic jet after it tidally disrupts a star. If this jet fortuitously aligns with our line of sight, the overall brightness is Doppler boos…
LSST Cadence Strategy Evaluations for AGN Time-series Data in Wide-Fast-Deep Field
Xinyue Sheng, Nicholas Ross, Matt Nicholl
Machine learning is a promising tool to reconstruct time-series phenomena, such as variability of active galactic nuclei (AGN), from sparsely-sampled data. Here we use three Contin…
