The ultraviolet luminosity function of star-forming galaxies between redshifts of 0.4 and 0.6

M. J. Page, T. Dwelly, I. McHardy +7

We combine ultraviolet imaging of the 13H survey field, taken with the XMM-Newton Optical Monitor telescope (XMM-OM) and the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory Ultraviolet and Optical…

Panning for gold with the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory: an optimal strategy for finding the counterparts to gravitational wave events

R. A. J. Eyles-Ferris, P. A. Evans, A. A. Breeveld +17

The LIGO, Virgo and KAGRA gravitational wave observatories are currently undertaking their O4 observing run offering the opportunity to discover new electromagnetic counterparts to…

Monthly quasi-periodic eruptions from repeated stellar disruption by a massive black hole

P. A. Evans, C. J. Nixon, S. Campana +12

In recent years, searches of archival X-ray data have revealed galaxies exhibiting nuclear quasi-periodic eruptions with periods of several hours. These are reminiscent of the tida…

JWST detection of heavy neutron capture elements in a compact object merger

A. Levan, B. P. Gompertz, O. S. Salafia +80

The mergers of binary compact objects such as neutron stars and black holes are of central interest to several areas of astrophysics, including as the progenitors of gamma-ray burs…

Swift/UVOT discovery of Swift J221951-484240: a UV luminous ambiguous nuclear transient

S. R. Oates, N. P. M. Kuin, M. Nicholl +57

We report the discovery of Swift J221951-484240 (hereafter: J221951), a luminous slow-evolving blue transient that was detected by the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory Ultra-violet/O…

On the bright-end of the UV luminosity functions of galaxies at

M. Sharma, M. J. Page, I. Ferreras +1

We derive the Ultra-Violet (UV) luminosity function (LF) of star-forming galaxies in the redshift range , in the rest-frame far-UV ( Å) wavelength. For this wo…
