Scaling slowly rotating asteroids by stellar occultations
A. Marciniak, J. Ďurech, A. Choukroun +176
As evidenced by recent survey results, majority of asteroids are slow rotators (P>12 h), but lack spin and shape models due to selection bias. This bias is skewing our overall unde…
Lens mass estimate in the Galactic disk extreme parallax microlensing event Gaia19dke
M. Maskoliūnas, Ł. Wyrzykowski, K. Howil +74
We present the results of our analysis of Gaia19dke, an extraordinary microlensing event in the Cygnus constellation that was first spotted by the {\gaia} satellite. This event fea…
A large topographic feature on the surface of the trans-Neptunian object (307261) 2002 MS measured from stellar occultations
F. L. Rommel, F. Braga-Ribas, J. L. Ortiz +201
This work aims at constraining the size, shape, and geometric albedo of the dwarf planet candidate 2002 MS4 through the analysis of nine stellar occultation events. Using multichor…
Profound optical flares from the relativistic jets of active galactic nuclei
Gopal Bhatta, Staszek Zola, M. Drozdz +11
Intense outbursts in blazars are among the most extreme phenomena seen in extragalactic objects. Studying these events can offer important information about the energetic physical…
Optical Counterparts of Two Candidate Ultraluminous X-ray Sources in NGC 4536
H. Avdan, E. Sonbas, K. S. Dhuga +7
Archival {\it XMM-Newton}, {\it Chandra} and {\it Hubble Space Telescope (HST)} data have been used to study the X-ray and optical properties of two candidate ultraluminous X-ray s…
GRB 221009A: Discovery of an Exceptionally Rare Nearby and Energetic Gamma-Ray Burst
Maia A. Williams, Jamie A. Kennea, S. Dichiara +53
We report the discovery of the unusually bright long-duration gamma-ray burst (GRB), GRB 221009A, as observed by the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory (Swift), Monitor of All-sky X-ra…
