Semi-major Axis Jumps as the Activity Trigger in Centaurs and High-Perihelion Jupiter Family Comets

Eva Lilly, Peter Jevčák, Charles Schambeau +7

We present a dynamical study of 39 active Centaurs and 17 high-perihelion (q4.5 au) JFCs with a focus on investigating recent orbital changes as potential triggers for comet-lik…

SN2023ixf in Messier 101: the twilight years of the progenitor as seen by Pan-STARRS

Conor L. Ransome, V. Ashley Villar, Anna Tartaglia +28

The nearby type II supernova, SN2023ixf in M101 exhibits signatures of early-time interaction with circumstellar material in the first week post-explosion. This material may be the…

Ejecta Evolution Following a Planned Impact into an Asteroid: The First Five Weeks

Theodore Kareta, Cristina Thomas, Jian-Yang Li +85

The impact of the DART spacecraft into Dimorphos, moon of the asteroid Didymos, changed Dimorphos' orbit substantially, largely from the ejection of material. We present results fr…

Time-varying double-peaked emission lines following the sudden ignition of the dormant galactic nucleus AT2017bcc

E. J. Ridley, M. Nicholl, C. A. Ward +35

We present a pan-chromatic study of AT2017bcc, a nuclear transient that was discovered in 2017 within the skymap of a reported burst-like gravitational wave candidate, G274296. It…

GW190425: Pan-STARRS and ATLAS coverage of the skymap and limits on optical emission associated with FRB190425

S. J. Smartt, M. Nicholl, S. Srivastav +32

GW190425 is the second of only two binary neutron star (BNS) merger events to be significantly detected by the LIGO-Virgo- Kagra gravitational wave detectors. With a detection only…

AT2022aedm and a new class of luminous, fast-cooling transients in elliptical galaxies

M. Nicholl, S. Srivastav, M. D. Fulton +49

We present the discovery and extensive follow-up of a remarkable fast-evolving optical transient, AT2022aedm, detected by the Asteroid Terrestrial impact Last Alert Survey (ATLAS).…
