AT 2016blu: Accretion-Powered Outbursts in a Luminous Blue Variable and Compact Object Binary

Mojgan Aghakhanloo, Núria Torres-Albà, Nathan Smith +33

We present the first X-ray detection of the supernova (SN) impostor AT 2016blu in NGC 4559. AT 2016blu exhibited 27 detected quasiperiodic (~113 day) outbursts between 2012 and Jun…

V392 Persei: a γ-ray bright nova eruption from a known dwarf nova

F. J. Murphy-Glaysher, M. J. Darnley, É. J. Harvey +57

V392 Persei is a known dwarf nova (DN) that underwent a classical nova eruption in 2018. Here we report ground-based optical, Swift UV and X-ray, and Fermi-LAT γ-ray observations f…

Optical Variability Correlated with X-ray Spectral Transition in the Black-Hole Transient ASASSN-18ey = MAXI J1820+070

Keito Niijima, Mariko Kimura, Yasuyuki Wakamatsu +49

How a black hole accretes matter and how this process is regulated are fundamental but unsolved questions in astrophysics. In transient black-hole binaries, a lot of mass stored in…

The Fast Evolving, Tremendous and Blue Superoutburst in ASASSN-21au Reveals a Dichotomy in the Outbursts of Long-period AM CVns

L. E. Rivera Sandoval, C. O. Heinke, J. M. Hameury +4

ASASSN-21au is an ultracompact accreting white dwarf binary (AM CVn) with a period of approx. 58 min. Using multiwavelength observations of the system, we discovered a dichotomy in…

Rapid Optical Variations Correlated with X-rays in the 2015 Second Outburst of V404 Cygni (GS 2023338)

Mariko Kimura, Taichi Kato, Keisuke Isogai +24

We present optical multi-colour photometry of V404 Cyg during the outburst from December, 2015 to January, 2016 together with the simultaneous X-ray data. This outburst occurred le…

Repetitive Patterns in Rapid Optical Variations in the Nearby Black-hole Binary V404 Cygni

Mariko Kimura, Keisuke Isogai, Taichi Kato +65

How black holes accrete surrounding matter is a fundamental, yet unsolved question in astrophysics. It is generally believed that matter is absorbed into black holes via accretion…
