AT2025agpz in Rubin commissioning data: distinguishing a luminous interacting supernova from nuclear transients in compact galaxies
C. R. Angus, M. Quilt, H. F. Stevance +37
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time will discover unprecedented numbers of rare, long-lived optical transients, many of which will be too faint or too n…
The fast transient AT 2023clx in the nearby LINER galaxy NGC 3799 as a tidal disruption of a very low-mass star
P. Charalampopoulos, R. Kotak, T. Wevers +30
We present an extensive analysis of the optical and UV properties of AT2023clx, the closest TDE to date, that occurred in the nucleus of the interacting LINER galaxy, NGC3799 (z=0.…
Time-varying double-peaked emission lines following the sudden ignition of the dormant galactic nucleus AT2017bcc
E. J. Ridley, M. Nicholl, C. A. Ward +35
We present a pan-chromatic study of AT2017bcc, a nuclear transient that was discovered in 2017 within the skymap of a reported burst-like gravitational wave candidate, G274296. It…
GW190425: Pan-STARRS and ATLAS coverage of the skymap and limits on optical emission associated with FRB190425
S. J. Smartt, M. Nicholl, S. Srivastav +32
GW190425 is the second of only two binary neutron star (BNS) merger events to be significantly detected by the LIGO-Virgo- Kagra gravitational wave detectors. With a detection only…
Delayed Appearance and Evolution of Coronal Lines in the TDE AT2019qiz
P. Short, A. Lawrence, M. Nicholl +17
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) occur when a star gets torn apart by a supermassive black hole as it crosses its tidal radius. We present late-time optical and X-ray observations of…
Multiwavelength observations of the extraordinary accretion event AT2021lwx
P. Wiseman, Y. Wang, S. Hönig +43
We present observations from X-ray to mid-infrared wavelengths of the most energetic non-quasar transient ever observed, AT2021lwx. Our data show a single optical brightening by a…
