The Luminosity Function of Tidal Disruption Flares for the ZTF-I Survey
Zheyu Lin, Ning Jiang, Xu Kong +4
The high-cadence survey of Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) has completely dominated the discovery of tidal disruption events (TDEs) in the past few years and resulted in the larges…
A possible 250-second X-ray quasi-periodicity in the fast blue optical transient AT2018cow
Wenjie Zhang, Xinwen Shu, Jin-Hong Chen +11
The fast blue optical transients (FBOTs) are a new population of extragalactic transients of unclear physical origin. A variety of mechanisms have been proposed including failed su…
On the Origin of the Strong Optical Variability of Emission-line Galaxies
Ruqiu Lin, Zhen-Ya Zheng, Weida Hu +9
Emission-line galaxies (ELGs) are crucial in understanding the formation and evolution of galaxies, while little is known about their variability. Here we report the study on the o…
X-ray view of a merging supermassive black hole binary candidate SDSSJ1430+2303: Results from the first ~200 days of observations
Liming Dou, Ning Jiang, Tinggui Wang +7
Recently we discovered an unprecedented supermassive black hole binary (SMBHB) candidate in the nearby Seyfert galaxy SDSS J1430+2303, which is predicted to merge within three year…
Transient radio emission from low-redshift galaxies at z<0.3 revealed by VLASS and FIRST surveys
Fabao Zhang, Xinwen Shu, Luming Sun +5
We present the discovery of a sample of 18 low-redshift (z<0.3) galaxies with transient nuclear radio emission. These galaxies are not or weakly detected in the Faint Images of the…
Compact and variable radio emission from an active galaxy with supersoft X-ray emission
Lei Yang, Xinwen Shu, Fabao Zhang +15
RX J1301.9+2747 is a unique active galaxy with supersoft X-ray spectrum that lacks significant emission at energies above 2 keV. In addition, it is one of few galaxies displaying q…
