Constraints on the dust extinction law of the Galaxy with Swift/UVOT, Gaia and 2MASS
I. Ferreras, M. Tress, G. Bruzual +6
We explore variations of the dust extinction law of the Milky Way by selecting stars from the Swift/UVOT Serendipitous Source Catalogue, cross-matched with Gaia DR2 and 2MASS to pr…
The aftermath of nova Cen 2013 (V1369 Cen)
Elena Mason, Steven N. Shore, Jeremy Drake +3
Context: Classical nova progenitors are cataclysmic variables and very old novae are observed to match high mass transfer rate and (relatively) long orbital period systems. However…
An outflow powers the optical rise of the nearby, fast-evolving tidal disruption event AT2019qiz
M. Nicholl, T. Wevers, S. R. Oates +42
At 66 Mpc, AT2019qiz is the closest optical tidal disruption event (TDE) to date, with a luminosity intermediate between the bulk of the population and iPTF16fnl. Its proximity all…
The ambiguous transient ASASSN-17hx. A possible nova-impostor
Elena Mason, Steven N. Shore, Paul Kuin +1
Some transients, although classified as novae based on their maximum and early decline optical spectra, cast doubts on their true nature and whether nova impostors might exist. We…
Dramatic change in the boundary layer in the symbiotic recurrent nova T Coronae Borealis
G. J. M. Luna, K. Mukai, J. L. Sokoloski +6
A sudden increase in the rate at which material reaches the most internal part of an accretion disk, i.e. the boundary layer, can change its structure dramatically. We have witness…
Colour variations in the GRB 120327A afterglow
A. Melandri, S. Covino, E. Zaninoni +42
We present a comprehensive temporal and spectral analysis of the long Swift GRB 120327A afterglow data to investigate the possible causes of the observed early time colour variatio…
