Three New Likely Spider Millisecond Pulsar Binaries and Optical Kinematic Tracers of Intrabinary Shocks

Jay Strader, Rebecca Kyer, Laura Chomiuk +9

We report the discovery of three candidate spider millisecond pulsars via multi-wavelength follow-up of unassociated Fermi Large Area Telescope gamma-ray sources. All have optical…

A Galactic-scale extreme-precision radial velocity survey

Sukanya Chakrabarti, Jack Wagner, Robert J. de Rosa +8

We describe the first Galactic-scale extreme-precision radial velocity (EPRV) survey and outline our goals of measuring Galactic accelerations and deriving constraints on the dark…

The First Multi-Messenger Nova: External Shocks, TeV Photons, and Neutrinos in the Next Eruption of T CrB

E. Aydi, P. Craig, K. V. Sokolovsky +10

T Coronae Borealis is the most compelling anticipated Galactic recurrent nova and one of the best opportunities to test whether nova eruptions can become genuine multi-messenger tr…

From Light to Sound: Spectroscopic Evolution & Sonification of the flaring Nova V612 Scuti

Pragati Acharya, Elias Aydi, Kirill V. Sokolovsky +17

We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of the 2017 Galactic nova V612 Sct, whose optical evolution was marked by multiple unusually large maxima. The eruption includ…

TESS detection of periodic brightness variations during the rise of classical nova PGIR22akgylf

Kirill V. Sokolovsky, Elias Aydi, Konstantin Malanchev +14

Classical novae are transient events powered by thermonuclear burning in a layer of hydrogen-rich material accreted by a white dwarf from its binary companion. Most classical novae…

Shocks in the Symbiotic Recurrent Nova V3890 Sgr: VLBI Radio Imaging and Fermi GeV Gamma-Rays

Isabella Molina, Peter Craig, Rebecca Diesing +14

We present very long baseline interferometric (VLBI) radio imaging and Fermi/LAT GeV -ray observations of the 2019 eruption of the symbiotic recurrent nova V3890 Sgr.The VLBI im…

Multiple outflows and delayed ejections revealed by early imaging of novae

Elias Aydi, John D. Monnier, Antoine Mérand +39

Novae are thermonuclear eruptions on accreting white dwarfs in interacting binaries. Although most of the accreted envelope is expelled, the mechanism -- impulsive ejection, multip…

Near-Discovery SOAR Photometry of the Third Interstellar Object: 3I/ATLAS

Tessa T. Frincke, Atsuhiro Yaginuma, John W. Noonan +7

3I/ATLAS was discovered on UT 2025 July 1 and joins a limited but growing population of detected m scale interstellar objects. In this paper we report photometric o…

What determines the -ray luminosities of classical novae?

Peter Craig, Elias Aydi, Laura Chomiuk +25

Classical novae in the Milky Way have now been well-established as high-energy GeV -ray sources. In novae with main-sequence companions, this emission is believed to result from…

Multiwavelength Evidence for Two New Candidate Transitional Millisecond Pulsars in the Sub-luminous Disk State: 4FGL J0639.1--8009 and 4FGL J1824.2+1231

Rebecca Kyer, Subhroja Roy, Jay Strader +4

We report the discovery of two new Galactic accreting compact objects consistent with the respective positions of the unassociated Fermi-LAT gamma-ray sources 4FGL J0639.1--8009 an…

Revisiting the Classics: On the Statistics of Dust Formation in Novae

Atticus Chong, Elias Aydi, Peter Craig +6

While nova eruptions produce some of the most common and dramatic dust formation episodes among astrophysical transients, the demographics of dust-forming novae remain poorly under…

Revisiting the Classics: On the Optical Colours of Novae as Standard Crayons

Peter Craig, Elias Aydi, Laura Chomiuk +9

We present a systematic study of the colours of novae over the course of their eruptions. Where possible, interstellar reddening was measured using the equivalent widths of…
