A Search For Stellar-mass Black Holes Via Astrometric Microlensing II: 2012-2015 Keck Candidates

Mace J. Huston, Jessica R. Lu, Casey Y. Lam +58

The Milky Way is expected to host 10 stellar-mass black holes with an uncertain binary fraction. The only proven method to detect isolated stellar mass black holes is gra…

Multi-scale variability in the optical afterglow of GRB 251013C from high-cadence LAST observations

R. Konno, E. O. Ofek, S. Garrappa +8

Context. Optical afterglows of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are often described by smooth power-law decays, but deviations such as flares and rebrightenings provide important constraint…

FRB 121102: No supernova-like ejecta or magnetar power, hinting at a binary WD merger

Eli Waxman, Eran O. Ofek, Doron Kushnir

We use measurements of the time-dependent dispersion measure of the repeating FRB 121102, together with earlier radio observations of its associated persistent radio source (PRS),…

The fraction of periodic SN Ib/c light curves

Asaf Horowicz, Eran O. Ofek, Avishay Gal-Yam

Periodic luminosity modulations have been recently identified for the stripped-envelope supernovae SN 2022jli and SN 2022esa, motivating a systematic search for a similar behavior…

Single object observations: Large telescopes vs. multiple small telescopes

Sagi Ben-Ami, Eran Oded Ofek

A significant fraction of large-telescope observing time is devoted to single-object spectroscopy and photometry. We compare the cost-effectiveness of different telescope architect…

Constraints on Late-Time Flaring from Luminous Fast Blue Optical Transients using the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite and the Zwicky Transient Facility

Rahul Jayaraman, Anna Y. Q. Ho, Michael M. Fausnaugh +14

The Luminous Fast Blue Optical Transient (LFBOT) AT2022tsd exhibited minutes-timescale optical flares in the tens of days following the initial transient event, likely due to a cen…
