X-ray flares from the stellar tidal disruption by a candidate supermassive black hole binary
Xinwen Shu, Wenjie Zhang, Shuo Li +8
Optical transient surveys have led to the discovery of dozens of stellar tidal disruption events (TDEs) by massive black hole in the centers of galaxies. Despite extensive searches…
Mid-InfraRed Outburst in Nearby Galaxies (MIRONG) I: Sample Selection and Characterization
Ning Jiang, Tinggui Wang, Liming Dou +9
The optical time-domain astronomy has grown rapidly in the past decade but the dynamic infrared sky is rarely explored. Aiming to construct a sample of mid-infrared outburst in nea…
Possible ~0.4 hour X-ray quasi-periodicity from an ultrasoft active galactic nucleus
J. R. Song, X. W. Shu, L. M. Sun +6
RX J1301.9+2747 is an ultrasoft active galactic nucleus (AGN) with unusual X-ray variability that is characterized by a long quiescent state and a short-lived flare state. The X-ra…
Years Delayed X-ray Afterglows of TDEs Originated from Wind-Torus Interactions
Guobin Mou, Liming Dou, Ning Jiang +8
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) occurred in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are a special class of sources with outstanding scientific significance. TDEs can generate ultrafast winds,…
An Extraordinary Response of Iron Emission to the Central Outburst in a Tidal Disruption Event Candidate
Zhicheng He, Ning Jiang, Tinggui Wang +9
Understanding the origin of \feii\ emission is important because it is crucial to construct the main sequence of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs). Despite several decades of observati…
A Mid-infrared Flare in the Active Galaxy MCG-02-04-026: Dust Echo of a Nuclear Transient Event
Luming Sun, Ning Jiang, Tinggui Wang +8
We report the discovery of a mid-infrared (MIR) flare using WISE data in the center of the nearby Seyfert 1.9 galaxy MCG-02-04-026. The MIR flare began in the first half of 2014, p…
