A Swift Fix for Nuclear Outbursts

Jason T. Hinkle, Thomas W. -S. Holoien, Benjamin. J. Shappee +1

In November 2020, the Swift team announced an update to the UltraViolet and Optical Telescope calibration to correct for the loss of sensitivity over time. This correction affects…

An Amusing Look at the Host of the Periodic Nuclear Transient ASASSN-14ko Reveals a Second AGN

M. A. Tucker, B. J. Shappee, J. T. Hinkle +10

We present Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) integral-field spectroscopy of ESO 253G003, which hosts a known Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN) and the periodic nuclear transi…

The First Data Release of CNIa0.02 -- A Complete Nearby (Redshift <0.02) Sample of Type Ia Supernova Light Curves

Ping Chen, Subo Dong, C. S. Kochanek +41

The CNIa0.02 project aims to collect a complete, nearby sample of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) light curves, and the SNe are volume-limited with host-galaxy redshifts z_host < 0.02.…

Discovery of a Fast Iron Low-ionization Outflow in the Early Evolution of the Nearby Tidal Disruption Event AT2019qiz

Tiara Hung, Ryan J. Foley, S. Veilleux +16

We report the results of ultraviolet (UV) and optical photometric and spectroscopic analysis of the tidal disruption event (TDE) AT2019qiz. Our follow-up observations started 10…

Optical-Ultraviolet Tidal Disruption Events

Sjoert van Velzen, Thomas W. -S. Holoien, Francesca Onori +2

The existence of optical-ultraviolet Tidal Disruption Events (TDEs) could be considered surprising because their electromagnetic output was originally predicted to be dominated by…
