SN 2024afyu interpreted as a Pair Instability Supernova
P. J. Pessi, S. Barmentloo, Ł. Wyrzykowski +63
Pair-instability supernovae (PISNe) are the predicted explosions of very massive stars triggered by electron-positron pair production. Numerous transients have been proposed as PIS…
A ZTF Search for Circumstellar Debris Transits in White Dwarfs: Six New Candidates, one with Gas Disk Emission, identified in a Novel Metric Space
Soumyadeep Bhattacharjee, Zachary P. Vanderbosch, Mark A. Hollands +13
White dwarfs (WDs) showing transits from orbiting planetary debris provide significant insights into the structure and dynamics of debris disks. This is a rare class of objects wit…
A Link Between White Dwarf Pulsars and Polars: Multiwavelength Observations of the 9.36-Minute Period Variable Gaia22ayj
Antonio C. Rodriguez, Kareem El-Badry, Pasi Hakala +30
White dwarfs (WDs) are the most abundant compact objects, and recent surveys have suggested that over a third of WDs in accreting binaries host a strong (B 1 MG) magnetic…
Variability of Central Stars of Planetary Nebulae with the Zwicky Transient Facility. I. Methods, Short-Timescale Variables, Binary Candidates, and the Unusual Nucleus of WeSb 1
Soumyadeep Bhattacharjee, S. R. Kulkarni, Albert K. H. Kong +16
Over the past several decades, time-series photometry of CSPNe has yielded significant results including, but not limited to, discoveries of nearly 100 binary systems, insights int…
Haro 5-2: A New Pre-Main Sequence Quadruple Stellar System
Bo Reipurth, C. Briceno, T. R. Geballe +9
We have discovered that the Halpha emission line star Haro 5-2, located in the 3-6 Myr old Ori OB1b association, is a young quadruple system. The system has a 2+2 configuration wit…
Four new eclipsing accreting ultracompact white dwarf binaries found with the Zwicky Transient Facility
J. M. Khalil, J. van Roestel, E. C. Bellm +10
Context. Accreting ultracompact binaries contain a white dwarf that is accreting from a degenerate object and have orbital periods shorter than 65 minutes. Aims. The aims of this l…
