Substellar science in the wake of the ESA Euclid space mission

Eduardo L. Martín, Hervé Bouy, Diego Martín +16

The ESA space mission Euclid was launched on July 1st, 2023 and is undergoing its science verification phase. In this invited review we show that Euclid means a before and an after…

A Unicorn in Monoceros: the dark companion to the bright, nearby red giant V723 Mon is a non-interacting, mass-gap black hole candidate

T. Jayasinghe, K. Z. Stanek, Todd A. Thompson +18

We report the discovery of the closest known black hole candidate as a binary companion to V723 Mon. V723 Mon is a nearby (), bright (~mag), evolved (…

r-Process Nucleosynthesis: Connecting Rare-Isotope Beam Facilities with the Cosmos

C. J. Horowitz, A. Arcones, B. Côté +35

This is an exciting time for the study of r-process nucleosynthesis. Recently, a neutron star merger GW170817 was observed in extraordinary detail with gravitational waves and elec…

GALEX Detection of Shock Breakout in Type II-P Supernova PS1-13arp: Implications for the Progenitor Star Wind

S. Gezari, D. O. Jones, N. E. Sanders +23

We present the GALEX detection of a UV burst at the time of explosion of an optically normal Type II-P supernova (PS1-13arp) from the Pan-STARRS1 survey at z=0.1665. The temperatur…

Molecular gas properties of UV-luminous star-forming galaxies at low redshift

T. S. Gonçalves, A. Basu-Zych, R. A. Overzier +2

Lyman break analogues (LBAs) are a population of star-forming galaxies at low redshift (z ~ 0.2) selected in the ultraviolet (UV). These objects present higher star formation rates…

The UV-bright, Slowly Declining Transient PS1-11af as a Partial Tidal Disruption Event

R. Chornock, E. Berger, S. Gezari +34

We present the Pan-STARRS1 discovery of the long-lived and blue transient PS1-11af, which was also detected by GALEX with coordinated observations in the near-ultraviolet (NUV) ban…

GALEX and Pan-STARRS1 Discovery of SN IIP 2010aq: The First Few Days After Shock Breakout in a Red Supergiant Star

S. Gezari, A. Rest, M. E. Huber +34

We present the early UV and optical light curve of Type IIP supernova (SN) 2010aq at z=0.0862, and compare it to analytical models for thermal emission following SN shock breakout…
