The ePESSTO+ census of ZTF nuclear transients. I. What flares in galactic nuclei?

E. Concepción, T. Petrushevska, G. Leloudas +21

Transients in galactic nuclei arise from distinct processes, only some of which trace the supermassive black hole (SMBH). These include tidal disruption events (TDEs), changing-loo…

AT2025agpz in Rubin commissioning data: distinguishing a luminous interacting supernova from nuclear transients in compact galaxies

C. R. Angus, M. Quilt, H. F. Stevance +37

The Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time will discover unprecedented numbers of rare, long-lived optical transients, many of which will be too faint or too n…

Early Near-Infrared Excess and Rapid Disk-Corona Evolution in the Tidal Disruption Event 2024aepd

Yongxin Wu, Yanan Wang, Thomas M. Reynolds +38

We present multi-wavelength observations of the tidal disruption event (TDE) 2024aepd, spanning primarily the first 300 days after discovery. A prominent near-infrared (NIR)…

Light-Curve and Spectral Properties of Type II Supernovae from the ATLAS survey

K. Ertini, J. P. Anderson, G. Folatelli +22

Type II supernovae (SNe II) are the most common terminal stellar explosions in the Universe. With SNe now being detected within days after explosion, there is growing evidence that…

New quasars behind the Magellanic Clouds. II. Spectroscopic confirmation of 136 near-infrared selected candidates

Valentin D. Ivanov, Maria-Rosa L. Cioni, Michel Dennefeld +6

Quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) are a basis for an absolute reference system for astrometric studies. There is a need for creating such system behind nearby galaxies, to facilitate th…

SN 2020pvb: a Type IIn-P supernova with a precursor outburst

Nancy Elias-Rosa, Seán J. Brennan, Stefano Benetti +37

We present photometric and spectroscopic data sets for SN 2020pvb, a Type IIn-P supernova (SN) similar to SNe 1994W, 2005cl, 2009kn and 2011ht, with a precursor outburst detected (…
