Photoionization of the Composite Nebula Surrounding NGC 5408 X-1: Implications for Beamed Emission
Jing Guo, Hua Feng, Roberto Soria +4
NGC 5408 X-1 is one of the best studied ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) and is surrounded by a photoionized nebula. Previous optical spectroscopy established the presence of str…
A Deep Chandra X-ray Survey of a Luminous Quasar Sample at 7
Xiangyu Jin, Feige Wang, Jinyi Yang +11
We present new Chandra observations of seven luminous quasars at . Combined with archival Chandra observations of all other known quasars, they form nearly complete X-ray ob…
Quasi-periodic X-ray eruptions and tidal disruption events prefer similar host galaxies
T. Wevers, K. D. French, A. I. Zabludoff +10
In the past five years, six quasi-periodic X-ray eruption (QPE) sources have been discovered in the nuclei of nearby galaxies. Their origin remains an open question. We present MUS…
Identification of Bubble Nebulae around NGC 55 ULX-1 with MUSE Observations
Changxing Zhou, Hua Feng, Fuyan Bian
Using the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) instrument on the Very Large Telescope, we identified three bubble nebulae (denoted as A, B, and C) around an ultraluminous X-ray…
Identification of a Helium Donor Star in NGC 247 ULX-1
Changxing Zhou, Hua Feng, Fuyan Bian
With Very Large Telescope (VLT) Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) observations, we detected highly variable helium emission lines from the optical counterpart of the superso…
VLT MUSE observations of the bubble nebula around NGC 1313 X-2 and evidence for additional photoionization
Changxing Zhou, Fuyan Bian, Hua Feng +1
The bubble nebula surrounding NGC 1313 X-2 is believed to be powered by high velocity winds from the central ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) as a result of supercritical accretion…
Chandra Detection of Three X-ray Bright Quasars at z>5
Jiang-Tao Li, Feige Wang, Jinyi Yang +8
We report Chandra detection of three UV bright radio quiet quasars at . We have collected a sufficient number of photons to extract an X-ray spectrum of each quasar to m…
Follow up of GW170817 and its electromagnetic counterpart by Australian-led observing programs
I. Andreoni, K. Ackley, J. Cooke +122
The discovery of the first electromagnetic counterpart to a gravitational wave signal has generated follow-up observations by over 50 facilities world-wide, ushering in the new era…
The ANU WiFeS SuperNovA Program (AWSNAP)
Michael J. Childress, Brad E. Tucker, Fang Yuan +24
This paper presents the first major data release and survey description for the ANU WiFeS SuperNovA Program (AWSNAP). AWSNAP is an ongoing supernova spectroscopy campaign utilising…
Black Hole Mass Estimates and Rapid Growth of Supermassive Black Holes in Luminous 3.5 Quasars
Wenwen Zuo, Xue-Bing Wu, Xiaohui Fan +3
We present new near-infrared (IR) observations of the H and MgII lines for 32 luminous quasars with using the Palomar Hale 200 inch telesco…
A real-time fast radio burst: polarization detection and multiwavelength follow-up
E. Petroff, M. Bailes, E. D. Barr +32
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are one of the most tantalizing mysteries of the radio sky; their progenitors and origins remain unknown and until now no rapid multiwavelength follow-up o…
Systematic Blueshift of Line Profiles in the Type IIn Supernova 2010jl: Evidence for Post-Shock Dust Formation?
Nathan Smith, Jeffrey M. Silverman, Alexei V. Filippenko +5
Type IIn SNe show spectral evidence for strong interaction between their blast wave and dense circumstellar material (CSM) around the progenitor star. SN2010jl was the brightest co…
