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…
The discovery of the faintest known Milky Way satellite using UNIONS
Simon E. T. Smith, William Cerny, Christian R. Hayes +14
We present the discovery of Ursa Major III/UNIONS 1, the least luminous known satellite of the Milky Way, which is estimated to have an absolute V-band magnitude of $+2.2^{+0.4}_{-…
Time-varying double-peaked emission lines following the sudden ignition of the dormant galactic nucleus AT2017bcc
E. J. Ridley, M. Nicholl, C. A. Ward +35
We present a pan-chromatic study of AT2017bcc, a nuclear transient that was discovered in 2017 within the skymap of a reported burst-like gravitational wave candidate, G274296. It…
SN 2022oqm: A Bright and Multi-peaked Calcium-rich Transient
S. Karthik Yadavalli, V. Ashley Villar, Luca Izzo +60
We present the photometric and spectroscopic evolution of SN 2022oqm, a nearby multi-peaked hydrogen- and helium-weak calcium-rich transient (CaRT). SN 2022oqm was detected 13.1 kp…
