Evidence for an intrinsic luminosity-decay correlation in GRB radio afterglows

S. P. R. Shilling, S. R. Oates, D. A. Kann +12

We present the discovery of a correlation, in a sample of 16 gamma-ray burst 8.5 GHz radio afterglows, between the intrinsic luminosity measured at 10 days in the rest frame, $L_{\…

SRG/eROSITA No. 5: Discovery of quasi-periodic eruptions every ~3.7 days from a galaxy at z>0.1

R. Arcodia, P. Baldini, A. Merloni +17

Quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) are repeating soft X-ray bursts from the nuclei of galaxies, tantalizingly proposed to be extreme mass ratio inspirals. Here, we report the discover…

Panning for gold with the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory: an optimal strategy for finding the counterparts to gravitational wave events

R. A. J. Eyles-Ferris, P. A. Evans, A. A. Breeveld +17

The LIGO, Virgo and KAGRA gravitational wave observatories are currently undertaking their O4 observing run offering the opportunity to discover new electromagnetic counterparts to…

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…

On the bright-end of the UV luminosity functions of galaxies at

M. Sharma, M. J. Page, I. Ferreras +1

We derive the Ultra-Violet (UV) luminosity function (LF) of star-forming galaxies in the redshift range , in the rest-frame far-UV ( Å) wavelength. For this wo…

A blast from the infant Universe: the very high-z GRB 210905A

A. Rossi, D. D. Frederiks, D. A. Kann +52

We present a detailed follow-up of the very energetic GRB 210905A at a high redshift of z = 6.312 and its luminous X-ray and optical afterglow. We obtained a photometric and spectr…
