A Systematic Search for Big Dippers in ASAS-SN
B. JoHantgen, D. M. Rowan, R. Forés-Toribio +6
Dipper stars are extrinsically variable stars with deep dimming events due to extended, often dusty, structures produced by a wide range of mechanisms such as collisions, protoplan…
MUSE IFU observations of galaxies hosting Tidal Disruption Events
M. Pursiainen, G. Leloudas, J. Lyman +14
We present an analysis of twenty tidal disruption event (TDE) host galaxies observed with the MUSE integral-field spectrograph on ESO VLT. We investigate the presence of extended e…
The Unhurried Universe: A Continued Search for Long Term Variability in ASAS-SN
Sydney Petz, C. S. Kochanek, K. Z. Stanek +4
We search a sample of 5,685,060 isolated sources in the All Sky Automated Survey for SuperNovae (ASAS-SN) with 14.5<g<15 mag for slowly varying sources with brightness changes larg…
Supernova rates and luminosity functions from ASAS-SN II: 2014-2017 core-collapse supernovae and their subtypes
T. Pessi, D. D. Desai, J. L. Prieto +7
The volumetric rates and luminosity functions (LFs) of core-collapse supernovae (ccSN) and their subtypes are important for understanding the cosmic history of star formation and t…
Discovery and Follow-up of ASASSN-23bd (AT 2023clx): The Lowest Redshift and Least Luminous Tidal Disruption Event To Date
W. B. Hoogendam, J. T. Hinkle, B. J. Shappee +23
We report the All-Sky Automated Survey for SuperNovae discovery of the tidal disruption event (TDE) ASASSN-23bd (AT 2023clx) in NGC 3799, a LINER galaxy with no evidence of strong…
