ASKAP J005512.2-255834: A Luminous, Long-Lived Radio Transient at z = 0.1 -- an Orphan Afterglow or an off-nuclear TDE from an IMBH?
Ashna Gulati, Tara Murphy, David L. Kaplan +24
We report the discovery of a slowly evolving, extragalactic radio transient, ASKAP J005512.2--255834 (hereafter ASKAP J0055-2558), identified using the Australian SKA Pathfinder in…
The Deeper, Wider, Faster programme's first DECam optical data release
James Freeburn, Jeff Cooke, Anais Möller +17
The transient and variable optical sky is relatively poorly characterised on fast (1hr) timescales. With the Dark Energy Camera (DECam), the Deeper, Wider, Faster programme…
An Optically Led Search for Kilonovae to z0.3 with the Kilonova and Transients Program (KNTraP)
Natasha Van Bemmel, Jielai Zhang, Jeff Cooke +15
Compact binary mergers detectable in gravitational waves can be accompanied by a kilonova, an electromagnetic transient powered by radioactive decay of newly synthesised r-process…
GRB220831A: a hostless, intermediate Gamma-ray burst with an unusual optical afterglow
James Freeburn, Brendan O'Connor, Jeff Cooke +20
GRB220831A is a gamma-ray burst (GRB) with a duration and spectral peak energy that places it at the interface between the distribution of long-soft and short-hard GRBs. In thi…
Minutes-duration Optical Flares with Supernova Luminosities
Anna Y. Q. Ho, Daniel A. Perley, Ping Chen +74
In recent years, certain luminous extragalactic optical transients have been observed to last only a few days. Their short observed duration implies a different powering mechanism…
