Alive and kicking: A new QPE phase in GSN 069 revealing a quiescent luminosity threshold for QPEs

G. Miniutti, M. Giustini, R. Arcodia +4

X-ray quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) are intense repeating soft X-ray bursts from the nuclei of nearby galaxies. Their physical origin is still largely unconstrained, and several…

Repeating tidal disruptions in GSN 069: Long-term evolution and constraints on quasi-periodic eruptions' models

G. Miniutti, M. Giustini, R. Arcodia +4

GSN 069 is the first galactic nucleus where quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) have been identified. These are high-amplitude, soft X-ray bursts recurring every ~9 hr, lasting ~1 hr,…

The EXTraS Project: Exploring the X-ray transient and variable sky

A. De Luca, R. Salvaterra, A. Belfiore +29

Temporal variability in flux and spectral shape is ubiquitous in the X-ray sky and carries crucial information about the nature and emission physics of the sources. The EPIC instru…

XMMSL2 J144605.0+685735 : a slow tidal disruption event

R. D. Saxton, A. M. Read, S. Komossa +6

Aims. We investigate the evolution of X-ray selected tidal disruption events. Methods. New events are found in near-real time data from XMM-Newton slews and are monitored by multi-…

Nine-hour X-ray quasi-periodic eruptions from a low-mass black hole galactic nucleus

G. Miniutti, R. D. Saxton, M. Giustini +11

In the past two decades, high amplitude electromagnetic outbursts have been detected from dormant galaxies and often attributed to the tidal disruption of a star by the central bla…

NGTS-2b: An inflated hot-Jupiter transiting a bright F-dwarf

Liam Raynard, Michael R. Goad, Edward Gillen +42

We report the discovery of NGTS-2b, an inflated hot-Jupiter transiting a bright F5V star (2MASS J14202949-3112074; = K), discovered as part of the Ne…
