Multi-wavelength Observations of AT2019wey: a New Candidate Black Hole Low-mass X-ray Binary
Yuhan Yao, S. R. Kulkarni, Kevin B. Burdge +21
AT2019wey (SRGA J043520.9+552226, SRGE J043523.3+552234) is a transient first reported by the ATLAS optical survey in 2019 December. It rose to prominence upon detection, three mon…
TDE Hosts are Green and Centrally Concentrated: Signatures of a Post-Merger System
Erica Hammerstein, Suvi Gezari, Sjoert van Velzen +17
We study the properties of the galaxies hosting the first 19 tidal disruption events (TDEs) detected with the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) within the context of a carefully cons…
A Family Tree of Optical Transients from Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies
Sara Frederick, Suvi Gezari, Matthew J. Graham +17
The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) has discovered five new events belonging to an emerging class of AGN undergoing smooth flares with large amplitudes and rapid rise times. This s…
The Zwicky Transient Facility Bright Transient Survey. II. A Public Statistical Sample for Exploring Supernova Demographics
Daniel A. Perley, Christoffer Fremling, Jesper Sollerman +34
We present a public catalog of transients from the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) Bright Transient Survey (BTS), a magnitude-limited (m<19 mag in either the g or r filter) survey…
A luminous X-ray transient in SDSS J143359.16+400636.0: a likely tidal disruption event
Murray Brightman, Charlotte Ward, Daniel Stern +9
We present the discovery of a luminous X-ray transient, serendipitously detected by Swift's X-ray Telescope (XRT) on 2020 February 5, located in the nucleus of the galaxy SDSS J143…
Optical follow-up of the neutron star-black hole mergers S200105ae and S200115j
Shreya Anand, Michael W. Coughlin, Mansi M. Kasliwal +46
LIGO and Virgo's third observing run (O3) revealed the first neutron star-black hole (NSBH) merger candidates in gravitational waves. These events are predicted to synthesize r-pro…
