The progenitors and circumstellar environments of stripped-envelope interacting supernovae from BPASS

B. Warwick, J. Lyman, D. L. Coppejans +4

Understanding the progenitors of stripped-envelope interacting supernovae (SEISNe) is crucial for probing the final stages of massive star evolution. Despite this, their rarity mea…

Old and Bright: The Remarkable Radio Brightening of the Engine-driven SN 2012au Several Years After Explosion Signals the Birth of a PWN

Eli Wiston, Raffaella Margutti, A. J. Nayana +23

We present the results from an extensive broad-band (radio to X-rays) observing campaign of the engine-driven Type Ib SN 2012au in the first 13 years of evolution. The early-time (…

A 14-year-old Mystery: The Peculiar Case of the Engine-driven SN 2012ap

Itai Sfaradi, Raffaella Margutti, Ryan Chornock +29

We present late-time ( d) optical (Keck), X-ray (Chandra and NuSTAR), and radio (VLA, ALMA, and the uGMRT) observations of the Type Ic-BL SN 2012ap. Previous studies of…

Optical outburst evolution of the transient black hole X-ray binary Swift J1727.8-1613: Disc response to jet ejections and late-outburst emergence of powerful disc winds

N. Castro Segura, K. Solomons, J. M. Corral-Santana +22

Swift J1727.81613 is a newly discovered transient low-mass X-ray binary harbouring a stellar-mass () black hole. We present state-resolved VLT/X-Shooter optical…

Searching for outbursts from Symbiotic Binaries in GOTO and ATLAS data

G. Ramsay, K. Ackley, S. Belkin +46

Symbiotic Binaries contain a white dwarf accreting material from a red giant star typically through a wind. We present the results of a search for outbursts from Symbiotic Binaries…

The Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO) data pipeline and workflow for transient discovery

J. D. Lyman, D. O'Neill, T. Killestein +45

Wide-field and high-cadence sky surveys are the first step in the chain of discovery and characterisation of astrophysical transients such as supernovae, kilonovae, and tidal disru…
