A population of highly energetic transient events in the centres of active galaxies
E. Kankare, R. Kotak, S. Mattila +25
Recent all-sky surveys have led to the discovery of new types of transients. These include stars disrupted by the central supermassive black hole, and supernovae that are 10-100 ti…
A kilonova as the electromagnetic counterpart to a gravitational-wave source
S. J. Smartt, T. -W. Chen, A. Jerkstrand +118
Gravitational waves were discovered with the detection of binary black hole mergers and they should also be detectable from lower mass neutron star mergers. These are predicted to…
The Pan-STARRS1 Medium-deep Survey: Star Formation Quenching in Group and Cluster Environments
Hung-Yu Jian, Lihwai Lin, Kai-Yang Lin +16
We make use of a catalog of 1600 Pan-STARRS1 groups produced by the probability friends-of-friends algorithm to explore how the galaxy properties, i.e. the specific star formation…
A transient search using combined human and machine classifications
Darryl E. Wright, Chris J. Lintott, Stephen J. Smartt +22
Large modern surveys require efficient review of data in order to find transient sources such as supernovae, and to distinguish such sources from artefacts and noise. Much effort h…
The splitting of double-component active asteroid P/2016 J1 (PANSTARRS)
Fernando Moreno, Francisco Pozuelos, Bojan Novakovic +20
We present deep imaging observations, orbital dynamics, and dust tail model analyses of the double-component asteroid P/2016 J1 (J1-A and J1-B). The observations were acquired at t…
