SOAR/Goodman Spectroscopic Assessment of Candidate Counterparts of the LIGO-Virgo Event GW190814
Douglas Tucker, Matthew Wiesner, Sahar Allam +140
On 2019 August 14 at 21:10:39 UTC, the LIGO/Virgo Collaboration (LVC) detected a possible neutron star-black hole merger (NSBH), the first ever identified. An extensive search for…
Constraining the nature of the accreting binary in CXOGBS J174623.5-310550
M. A. P. Torres, S. Repetto, T. Wevers +12
We report optical and infrared observations of the X-ray source CXOGBS J174623.5-310550. This Galactic object was identified as a potential quiescent low-mass X-ray binary accretin…
Flares, wind and nebulae: the 2015 December mini-outburst of V404 Cygni
T. Muñoz-Darias, J. Casares, D. Mata Sánchez +22
After more than 26 years in quiescence, the black hole transient V404 Cyg went into a luminous outburst in June 2015, and additional activity was detected in late December of the s…
Furiously Fast and Red: Sub-second Optical Flaring in V404 Cyg during the 2015 Outburst Peak
P. Gandhi, S. P. Littlefair, L. K. Hardy +25
We present observations of rapid (sub-second) optical flux variability in V404 Cyg during its 2015 June outburst. Simultaneous three-band observations with the ULTRACAM fast imager…
A detection of the donor star of Aquila X-1 during its 2004 outburst?
R. Cornelisse, J. Casares, D. Steeghs +4
Phase-resolved high resolution optical spectroscopy has revealed narrow N III and He II emission lines from the soft X-ray transient Aquila X-1 during its 2004 outburst that move a…
SS433:the microquasar link with ULXs?
P. A. Charles, A. D. Barnes, J. Casares +6
SS433 is the prototype microquasar in the Galaxy and may even be analogous to the ULX sources if the jets' kinetic energy is taken into account. However, in spite of 20 years of st…
