Spatially resolved optical and mid-infrared spectroscopy of SDSS1335+0728: implications for the origin of the Ansky event

P. Sánchez-Sáez, M. Masterson, L. Hernández-García +25

The galaxy SDSS1335+0728 brightened abruptly in December 2019 (the Ansky event) and has since been confirmed as the host of extreme X-ray quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) of debated…

Changing-Look Active Galactic Nuclei in SDSS-V: Host-Galaxy Properties and Black-Hole Scaling Relations

Grisha Zeltyn, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Michael Eracleous +23

Changing-look active galactic nuclei (CL-AGNs) exhibit dramatic spectral variability on unexpectedly short timescales, challenging standard accretion flow models. Despite growing s…

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^…

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…

ALeRCE light curve classifier: Tidal disruption event expansion pack

M. Pavez-Herrera, P. Sánchez-Sáez, L. Hernández-García +9

ALeRCE (Automatic Learning for the Rapid Classification of Events) processes the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) alert stream in preparation for the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, clas…
