Discovery of a Nearby Ultra-fast Magnetic White Dwarf Propeller: Common Pathways to Magnetic Cataclysmic Variables
Antonio C. Rodriguez, Kareem El-Badry, R. Michael Rich +11
The fastest spinning white dwarfs (WDs), which approach break-up speeds, are found in close binary systems. In the two known magnetic WD ``propellers'', AE~Aqr and LAMOST J0240+195…
Searching for New Cataclysmic Variables in the Chandra Source Catalog
Ilkham Galiullin, Antonio C. Rodriguez, Kareem El-Badry +14
Cataclysmic variables (CVs) are compact binary systems in which a white dwarf accretes matter from a Roche-lobe-filling companion star. In this study, we searched for new CVs in th…
A Joint SRG/eROSITA + ZTF Search: Discovery of a 97-min Period Eclipsing Cataclysmic Variable with Evidence of a Brown Dwarf Secondary
Ilkham Galiullin, Antonio C. Rodriguez, Shrinivas R. Kulkarni +24
Cataclysmic variables (CVs) that have evolved past the period minimum during their lifetimes are predicted to be systems with a brown dwarf donor. While population synthesis models…
XMM-Newton-discovered Fast X-ray Transients: Host galaxies and limits on contemporaneous detections of optical counterparts
D. Eappachen, P. G. Jonker, J. Quirola-Vásquez +18
Extragalactic fast X-ray transients (FXTs) are a class of soft (0.3-10 keV) X-ray transients lasting a few hundred seconds to several hours. Several progenitor mechanisms have been…
Discovery and Follow-up of ASASSN-19dj: An X-ray and UV Luminous TDE in an Extreme Post-Starburst Galaxy
Jason T. Hinkle, T. W. -S. Holoien, K. Auchettl +28
We present observations of ASASSN-19dj, a nearby tidal disruption event (TDE) discovered in the post-starburst galaxy KUG 0810+227 by the All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (A…
