An Off-Nuclear Tidal Disruption Event Discovered At Late Times: The Case Of TDE 2023mfm

Itai Sfaradi, Ryan Chornock, Yuhan Yao +24

We present the discovery and analysis of the optically selected tidal disruption event (TDE) 2023mfm, which originates from a wandering massive black hole (MBH) in a massive ($\sim…

A Multiwavelength View of Oph II: Disentangling the Variability of the Multi-Star Component C

Sean J. Gunderson, Walter W. Golay, Jackson Codd +8

We present a multiwavelength analysis of the star Oph C, covering X-ray, optical, near-infrared, and radio observations to test for the presence of interferometrically-detected…

Radio Observations of the Unusual Tidal Disruption Event AT 2022wtn: a Fast and Highly Energetic Outflow

Gavin Farley, Tanmoy Laskar, Noah Franz +11

We present multi-epoch, multi-frequency radio observations of the tidal disruption event (TDE) AT 2022wtn, obtained with the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) and Giant Metrewa…

VLA Observations Confirm AT 2023mfm as an Off-nuclear Tidal Disruption Event

Wenkai Li, Collin T. Christy, Kate D. Alexander +15

We report new radio observations of the tidal disruption event (TDE) AT 2023mfm, which we identified as a high-confidence candidate in a systematic search for off-nuclear TDEs. Hig…

The pair-instability origin of supernova 2023vbw

Daichi Hiramatsu, Edo Berger, Daichi Tsuna +18

Stars in the initial and carbon-oxygen core mass ranges of and M, respectively, with low metallicity are predicted to experience copious electron-pos…

Optimizing Kilonova Searches: A Case Study of the Type IIb SN 2025ulz in the Localization Volume of the Low-Significance Gravitational Wave Event S250818k

Noah Franz, Bhagya Subrayan, Charles D. Kilpatrick +54

Kilonovae, the ultraviolet/optical/infrared counterparts to binary neutron star mergers, are an exceptionally rare class of transients. Optical follow-up campaigns are plagued by c…

A Multiwavelength View of Oph I: Resolving the X-ray Source Between A and B

Sean J. Gunderson, Jackson Codd, Walter W. Golay +12

We present a multiwavelength analysis of the central stellar pair of Oph, components A and B. Using recent high-resolution \textit{Chandra X-ray Observatory} observations, we d…

Radio Emission from the Infrared Tidal Disruption Event WTP14adeqka: The First Directly Resolved Delayed Outflow from a TDE

Walter W. Golay, Edo Berger, Yvette Cendes +10

We present detailed radio observations of the mid-infrared (MIR) tidal disruption event (TDE) WTP14adeqka. We detect rising radio emission starting years after the disc…

The First Radio-Bright Off-Nuclear TDE 2024tvd Reveals the Fastest-Evolving Double-Peaked Radio Emission

Itai Sfaradi, Raffaella Margutti, Ryan Chornock +34

We present the first multi-epoch broadband radio and millimeter monitoring of an off-nuclear TDE using the VLA, ALMA, ATA, AMI-LA, and the SMA. The off-nuclear TDE 2024tvd exhibits…

James Webb Space Telescope Observations of the Nearby and Precisely-Localized FRB 20250316A: A Potential Near-IR Counterpart and Implications for the Progenitors of Fast Radio Bursts

Peter K. Blanchard, Edo Berger, Shion E. Andrew +23

We present deep James Webb Space Telescope near-infrared imaging to search for a quiescent or transient counterpart to FRB 20250316A, which was precisely localized with the CHIME/F…

Methods to Test the Source of the Extreme Gas Motions in WS 35

Sean J. Gunderson, Richard Ignace, Walter W. Golay

We present theoretical arguments toward the plausibility of a stellar wind to explain the 16000 km s line broadening in the optical spectra of WS 35, the central star in the…

A second radio flare from the tidal disruption event AT2020vwl: a delayed outflow ejection?

A. J. Goodwin, A. Mummery, T. Laskar +12

We present the discovery of a second radio flare from the tidal disruption event (TDE) AT2020vwl via long-term monitoring radio observations. Late-time radio flares from TDEs are b…

A search for thermal gyro-synchrotron emission from hot stellar coronae

Walter W. Golay, Robert L. Mutel, Dani Lipman +1

We searched for thermal gyro-synchrotron radio emission from a sample of five radio-loud stars whose X-ray coronae contain a hot ( K) thermal component. We used the JVLA…
