Schuyler D. Van Dyk, Tamas Szalai, Roc M. Cutri +16
The reactivated Near-Earth Object Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (NEOWISE-R) serendipitously caught the Type II supernova SN 2023ixf in Messier 101 on the rise, starting day 3…
Outbursting Young Stellar Object PGIR 20dci in the Perseus Arm
Lynne A. Hillenbrand, Kishalay De, Matthew Hankins +9
We report the discovery of a likely outbursting Class I young stellar object, associated with the star-forming region NGC 281-W (distance kpc). The source is currently s…
An On-going Mid-infrared Outburst in the White Dwarf 0145+234: Catching in Action of Tidal Disruption of an Exoasteroid?
Ting-Gui Wang, Ning Jiang, Jian Ge +7
We report the detection of a large amplitude MIR outburst in the white dwarf (WD) 0145+234 in the NEOWISE Survey data. The source had a stable MIR flux before 2018, and was brighte…
Gaia 17bpi: An FU Ori Type Outburst
Lynne A. Hillenbrand, Carlos Contreras Peña, Sam Morrell +7
We report on the source Gaia 17bpi and identify it as a new, ongoing FU Ori type outburst, associated with a young stellar object. The optical lightcurve from Gaia exhibited a 3.5…
A Proper Motion Survey Using the First Sky Pass of NEOWISE-Reactivation Data
Adam C. Schneider, Jennifer Greco, Michael C. Cushing +5
The Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) was reactivated in December of 2013 (NEOWISE) to search for potentially hazardous near-Earth objects. We have conducted a survey usin…
