NEOWISE-R Caught the Luminous SN 2023ixf in Messier 101
Schuyler D. Van Dyk, Tamas Szalai, Roc M. Cutri +16
The reactivated Near-Earth Object Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (NEOWISE-R) serendipitously caught the Type II supernova SN 2023ixf in Messier 101 on the rise, starting day 3…
The Enigma of Gaia18cjb: a Rare Hybrid of FUor and EXor?
Eleonora Fiorellino, Peter Abraham, Agnes Kospal +28
Context. Gaia18cjb is one of the Gaia-alerted eruptive young star candidates which has been experiencing a slow and strong brightening during the last 13 years, similar to some FU…
Photometric and spectroscopic study of the EXor-like eruptive young star Gaia19fct
Sunkyung Park, Ágnes Kóspál, Péter Ábrahám +19
Gaia19fct is one of the Gaia-alerted eruptive young stars that has undergone several brightening events. We conducted monitoring observations using multi-filter optical and near-in…
Mid-infrared time-domain study of recent dust production events in the extreme debris disc of TYC 4209-1322-1
A. Moór, P. Ábrahám, Á. Kóspál +23
Extreme debris discs are characterized by unusually strong mid-infrared excess emission, which often proves to be variable. The warm dust in these discs is of transient nature and…
A multi-epoch, multi-wavelength study of the classical FUor V1515 Cyg approaching quiescence
Zs. M. Szabó, Á. Kóspál, P. Ábrahám +28
Historically, FU Orionis-type stars are low-mass, pre-main sequence stars. The members of this class experience powerful accretion outbursts and remain in an enhanced accretion sta…
Recurrent strong outbursts of an EXor-like young eruptive star Gaia20eae
Fernando Cruz-Sáenz de Miera, Ágnes Kóspál, Péter Ábrahám +21
We present follow-up photometric and spectroscopic observations, and subsequent analysis of Gaia20eae. This source triggered photometric alerts during 2020 after showing a 3…
A study of the photometric and spectroscopic variations of the prototypical FU Orionis-type star V1057 Cyg
Zs. M. Szabó, Á. Kóspál, P. Ábrahám +19
Among the low-mass pre-main sequence stars, a small group called FU Orionis-type objects (FUors) are notable for undergoing powerful accretion outbursts. V1057 Cyg, a classical exa…
Dipper-like variability of the Gaia alerted young star V555 Ori
Zsófia Nagy, Elza Szegedi-Elek, Péter Ábrahám +26
V555 Ori is a T Tauri star, whose 1.5 mag brightening was published as a Gaia science alert in 2017. We carried out optical and near-infrared photometric, and optical spectroscopic…
Gaia 18dvy: a new FUor in the Cygnus OB3 association
E. Szegedi-Elek, P. Ábrahám, L. Wyrzykowski +59
We present optical-infrared photometric and spectroscopic observations of Gaia18dvy, located in the Cygnus OB3 association at a distance of 1.88 kpc. The object was noted by the Ga…
SN 2017cfd: A Normal Type Ia Supernova Discovered Very Young
Xuhui Han, WeiKang Zheng, Benjamin E. Stahl +22
The Type~Ia supernova (SN~Ia) 2017cfd in IC~0511 (redshift z = 0.01209+- 0.00016$) was discovered by the Lick Observatory Supernova Search 1.6+-0.7 d after the fitted first-light t…
The weakening outburst of the young eruptive star V582 Aur
G. Zsidi, P. Ábrahám, J. A. Acosta-Pulido +17
V582 Aur is a pre-main sequence FU Orionis type eruptive star, which entered a brightness minimum in 2016 March due to changes in the line-of-sight extinction. Here, we present and…
An UXor among FUors: extinction related brightness variations of the young eruptive star V582 Aur
P. Ábrahám, Á. Kóspál, M. Kun +24
V582 Aur is an FU Ori-type young eruptive star in outburst since 1985. The eruption is currently in a relatively constant plateau phase, with photometric and spectroscopic va…
Exploring the circumstellar environment of the young eruptive star V2492 Cyg
Á. Kóspál, P. Ábrahám, J. A. Acosta-Pulido +20
Context. V2492 Cyg is a young eruptive star that went into outburst in 2010. The near-infrared color changes observed since the outburst peak suggest that the source belongs to a n…
The outburst and nature of two young eruptive stars in the North America/Pelican Nebula Complex
Á. Kóspál, P. Ábrahám, J. A. Acosta-Pulido +8
Context. In August 2010, the sudden optical brightening of two young stellar objects, located in the North America/Pelican Nebula Complex, was announced. Early observations indicat…
