A study on late time UV-emission in core collapse supernovae and the implications for the peculiar transient AT2018cow
Anne Inkenhaag, Peter G. Jonker, Andrew J. Levan +4
Over time, core-collapse supernova (CCSN) spectra become redder due to dust formation and cooling of the SN ejecta. A UV detection of a CCSN at late times thus indicates an additio…
Rubin ToO 2024: Envisioning the Vera C. Rubin Observatory LSST Target of Opportunity program
Igor Andreoni, Raffaella Margutti, John Banovetz +86
The Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) at Vera C. Rubin Observatory is planned to begin in the Fall of 2025. The LSST survey cadence has been designed via a community-driven pr…
Binary neutron star merger offsets from their host galaxies. GW 170817 as a case study
N. Gaspari, H. F. Stevance, A. J. Levan +2
Aims. The locations of binary neutron star (BNS) mergers within their host galaxies encode the systemic kicks that these systems received in the supernova aftermath. We investigate…
New JWST redshifts for the host galaxies of CDF-S XT1 and XT2: understanding their nature
J. Quirola-Vásquez, F. E. Bauer, P. G. Jonker +6
CDF-S XT1 and XT2 are considered two canonical extragalactic fast X-ray transients (FXTs). In this work, we report new constraints on both FXTs, based on recent JWST NIRCam and MIR…
The Einstein Probe transient EP240414a: Linking Fast X-ray Transients, Gamma-ray Bursts and Luminous Fast Blue Optical Transients
Joyce N. D. van Dalen, Andrew J. Levan, Peter G. Jonker +30
Detections of fast X-ray transients (FXTs) have been accrued over the last few decades. However, their origin has remained mysterious. There is now rapid progress thanks to timely…
Kinematic constraints on the ages and kick velocities of Galactic neutron star binaries
Paul Disberg, Nicola Gaspari, Andrew J. Levan
The systems creating binary neutron stars (BNSs) experience systemic kicks when one of the components goes supernova. The combined magnitude of these kicks is still a topic of deba…
The BlackGEM telescope array I: Overview
Paul J. Groot, S. Bloemen, P. Vreeswijk +75
The main science aim of the BlackGEM array is to detect optical counterparts to gravitational wave mergers. Additionally, the array will perform a set of synoptic surveys to detect…
