AT2022aedm and a new class of luminous, fast-cooling transients in elliptical galaxies
M. Nicholl, S. Srivastav, M. D. Fulton +49
We present the discovery and extensive follow-up of a remarkable fast-evolving optical transient, AT2022aedm, detected by the Asteroid Terrestrial impact Last Alert Survey (ATLAS).…
A re-emerging bright soft-X-ray state of the changing-look Active Galactic Nucleus 1ES~1927+654: a multi-wavelength view
Ritesh Ghosh, Sibasish Laha, Eileen Meyer +24
1ES1927+654 is a nearby active galactic nucleus that has shown an enigmatic outburst in optical/UV followed by X-rays, exhibiting strange variability patterns at timescales of mont…
JWST detection of heavy neutron capture elements in a compact object merger
A. Levan, B. P. Gompertz, O. S. Salafia +80
The mergers of binary compact objects such as neutron stars and black holes are of central interest to several areas of astrophysics, including as the progenitors of gamma-ray burs…
Swift/UVOT discovery of Swift J221951-484240: a UV luminous ambiguous nuclear transient
S. R. Oates, N. P. M. Kuin, M. Nicholl +57
We report the discovery of Swift J221951-484240 (hereafter: J221951), a luminous slow-evolving blue transient that was detected by the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory Ultra-violet/O…
A Precursor Plateau and Pre-Maximum [O II] Emission in the Superluminous SN2019szu: A Pulsational Pair-Instability Candidate
Aysha Aamer, Matt Nicholl, Anders Jerkstrand +29
We present a detailed study on SN2019szu, a Type I superluminous supernova at , that displayed unique photometric and spectroscopic properties. Pan-STARRS and ZTF forced p…
A long-duration gamma-ray burst of dynamical origin from the nucleus of an ancient galaxy
Andrew J. Levan, Daniele B. Malesani, Benjamin P. Gompertz +29
The majority of long duration ( s) gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are believed to arise from the collapse of massive stars \cite{Hjorth+03}, with a small proportion created from the m…
