The January 2016 eruption of recurrent nova LMC 1968

N. P. M. Kuin, K. L. Page, P. Mróz +23

We present a comprehensive review of all observations of the eclipsing recurrent Nova LMC 1968 in the Large Magellanic Cloud which was previously observed in eruption in 1968, 1990…

A study of gamma-ray burst afterglows as they first come into view of the Swift Ultraviolet and Optical Telescope

M. J. Page, S. R. Oates, M. De Pasquale +6

We examine the the emission from optically bright gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows as the Ultraviolet and Optical Telescope (UVOT) on the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory first begin…

Swift UVOT Grism Observations of Nearby Type Ia Supernovae -- II. Probing the Progenitor Metallicity of SNe Ia with Ultraviolet Spectra

Y. -C. Pan, R. J. Foley, D. O. Jones +2

Ultraviolet (UV) observations of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are crucial for constraining the properties of their progenitor systems. Theoretical studies predicted that the UV spec…

Regulation of accretion by its outflow in a symbiotic star: the 2016 outflow fast state of MWC 560

Adrian B. Lucy, J. L. Sokoloski, U. Munari +11

How are accretion discs affected by their outflows? To address this question for white dwarfs accreting from cool giants, we performed optical, radio, X-ray, and ultraviolet observ…

Evidence for Late-stage Eruptive Mass-loss in the Progenitor to SN2018gep, a Broad-lined Ic Supernova: Pre-explosion Emission and a Rapidly Rising Luminous Transient

Anna Y. Q. Ho, Daniel A. Goldstein, Steve Schulze +47

We present detailed observations of ZTF18abukavn (SN2018gep), discovered in high-cadence data from the Zwicky Transient Facility as a rapidly rising ( mag/hr) and lumino…
