X-Ray Flashes in Recurrent Novae: M31N 2008-12a and the Implications of the Swift Non-detection
Mariko Kato, Hideyuki Saio, Martin Henze +10
Models of nova outbursts suggest that an X-ray flash should occur just after hydrogen ignition. However, this X-ray flash has never been observationally confirmed. We present four…
Swift follow-up of gravitational wave triggers: results from the first aLIGO run and optimisation for the future
P. A. Evans, J. A. Kennea, D. M. Palmer +18
During its first observing run, in late 2015, the advanced LIGO facility announced 3 gravitational wave (GW) triggers to electromagnetic follow-up partners. Two of these have since…
The reproducible radio outbursts of SS Cygni
T. D. Russell, J. C. A. Miller-Jones, G. R. Sivakoff +16
We present the results of our intensive radio observing campaign of the dwarf nova SS Cyg during its 2010 April outburst. We argue that the observed radio emission was produced by…
Demonstrating the likely neutron star nature of five M31 globular cluster sources with Swift-NuSTAR spectroscopy
Thomas J. Maccarone, Mihoko Yukita, Ann Hornschemeier +17
We present the results of a joint Swift-NuSTAR spectroscopy campaign on M31. We focus on the five brightest globular cluster X-ray sources in our fields. Two of these had previousl…
Swift follow-up of the Gravitational Wave source GW150914
P. A. Evans, J. A. Kennea, S. D. Barthelmy +22
The Advanced LIGO observatory recently reported the first direct detection of gravitational waves (GW) which triggered ALIGO on 2015 September 14. We report on observations taken w…
