AT2022aedm and a new class of luminous, fast-cooling transients in elliptical galaxies

M. Nicholl, S. Srivastav, M. D. Fulton +49

We present the discovery and extensive follow-up of a remarkable fast-evolving optical transient, AT2022aedm, detected by the Asteroid Terrestrial impact Last Alert Survey (ATLAS).…

Searching for ejected supernova companions in the era of precise proper motion and radial velocity measurements

A. A. Chrimes, A. J. Levan, J. J. Eldridge +7

The majority of massive stars are born in binaries, and most unbind upon the first supernova. With precise proper motion surveys such as Gaia, it is possible to trace back the moti…

SN2017egm: A Helium-rich Superluminous Supernova with Multiple Bumps in the Light Curves

Jiazheng Zhu, Ning Jiang, Subo Dong +28

When discovered, SN~2017egm was the closest (redshift ) hydrogen-poor superluminous supernova (SLSN-I) and a rare case that exploded in a massive and metal-rich galaxy. Thu…

The Fast X-ray Transient XRT 210423 and its Host Galaxy

D. Eappachen, P. G. Jonker, A. J. Levan +8

Fast X-ray Transients (FXTs) are X-ray flares with a duration ranging from a few hundred seconds to a few hours. Possible origins include the tidal disruption of a white dwarf by a…

Time varying Na I D absorption in ILRTs as a probe of circumstellar material

Robert Byrne, Morgan Fraser, Yongzhi Cai +2

Intermediate-Luminosity Red Transients (ILRTs) are a class of observed transient posited to arise from the production of an electron-capture supernova from a super-asymptotic giant…

The rise and fall of the iron-strong nuclear transient PS16dtm

T. Petrushevska, G. Leloudas, D. Ilic +30

Thanks to the advent of large-scale optical surveys, a diverse set of flares from the nuclear regions of galaxies has recently been discovered. These include the disruption of star…
