A search for optical counterparts in quiescent black hole X-ray transients
I. V. Yanes-Rizo, J. Casares, M. A. P. Torres +7
Dynamical mass measurements of compact stars in X-ray transients demand the detection of optical/near infrared counterparts in quiescence. Out of the 73 black-hole candidates in X-…
GOTO identification and broadband modelling of the counterpart to the SVOM GRB 250818B
S. Belkin, G. P. Lamb, K. Ackley +61
Rapid localisation and follow-up of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) increasingly rely on low-latency triggers from new missions coupled to wide-field robotic optical facilities. We present…
A Sibling of AR Scorpii: SDSS J230641.47244055.8 and the Observational Blueprint of White Dwarf Pulsars
N. Castro Segura, I. Pelisoli, B. T. Gänsicke +21
Radio pulsating white dwarf (WD) systems, known as WD pulsars, are non-accreting binary systems where the rapidly spinning WD interacts with a low-mass companion producing pulsed n…
Follow-up on three poorly studied AM CVn stars
Amornrat Aungwerojwit, Boris T. Gaensicke, E. Breedt +12
We report follow-up observations of three poorly studied AM CVn-type binaries: CRTS CSS150211 J091017-200813, NSV1440, and SDSSJ183131.63+420220.2. Analysing time-series photometry…
Long term monitoring of FRB~20121102 with the Nançay Radio Telescope and multi-wavelength campaigns including INTEGRAL
C. Gouiffés, C. Ng, I. Cognard +12
The origin(s) of Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs), mysterious radio bursts coming from extragalactic distances, remains unknown. Multi-wavelength observations are arguably the only way to…
