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…
The Birth of a Relativistic Jet Following the Disruption of a Star by a Cosmological Black Hole
Dheeraj R. Pasham, Matteo Lucchini, Tanmoy Laskar +63
A black hole can launch a powerful relativistic jet after it tidally disrupts a star. If this jet fortuitously aligns with our line of sight, the overall brightness is Doppler boos…
A long life of excess: The interacting transient SN 2017hcc
S. Moran, M. Fraser, R. Kotak +29
In this study we present the results of a five-year follow-up campaign of the long-lived type IIn supernova SN 2017hcc, found in a spiral dwarf host of near-solar metallicity. The…
Gaia Photometric Science Alerts
S. T. Hodgkin, D. L. Harrison, E. Breedt +108
Since July 2014, the Gaia mission has been engaged in a high-spatial-resolution, time-resolved, precise, accurate astrometric, and photometric survey of the entire sky. Aims: We pr…
Progenitor, environment, and modelling of the interacting transient, AT 2016jbu (Gaia16cfr)
S. J. Brennan, M. Fraser, J. Johansson +67
We present the bolometric lightcurve, identification and analysis of the progenitor candidate, and preliminary modelling of AT2016jbu (Gaia16cfr). We find a progenitor consistent w…
Photometric and spectroscopic evolution of the interacting transient AT 2016jbu (Gaia16cfr)
S. J. Brennan, M. Fraser, J. Johansson +68
We present the results from a high cadence, multi-wavelength observation campaign of AT 2016jbu (aka Gaia16cfr), an interacting transient. This dataset complements the current lite…
