Nine tidal disruption event candidates in eROSITA-DE DR1 discovered through supersoft X-ray selection
R. A. J. Eyles-Ferris, R. L. C. Starling, P. T. O'Brien +2
Tidal disruption events are rare and diverse transients that occur when a star is torn apart by a supermassive black hole and accreted, which can result in a supersoft X-ray therma…
Illuminating Gravitational Waves: A Concordant Picture of Photons from a Neutron Star Merger
M. M. Kasliwal, E. Nakar, L. P. Singer +78
Merging neutron stars offer an exquisite laboratory for simultaneously studying strong-field gravity and matter in extreme environments. We establish the physical association of an…
Space Telescope and Optical Reverberation Mapping Project. V. Optical Spectroscopic Campaign and Emission-Line Analysis for NGC 5548
L. Pei, M. M. Fausnaugh, A. J. Barth +153
We present the results of an optical spectroscopic monitoring program targeting NGC 5548 as part of a larger multi-wavelength reverberation mapping campaign. The campaign spanned s…
Highly variable AGN from the XMM-Newton Slew Survey
N. L. Strotjohann, R. D. Saxton, R. L. C. Starling +4
We investigate the properties of a variability-selected complete sample of AGN in order to identify the mechanisms which cause large amplitude X-ray variability on time scales of y…
1SXPS: A deep Swift X-ray Telescope point source catalog with light curves and spectra
P. A. Evans, J. P. Osborne, A. P. Beardmore +9
We present the 1SXPS (Swift-XRT Point Source) catalog of 151,524 X-ray point-sources detected by the Swift-XRT in 8 years of operation. The catalog covers 1905 square degrees distr…
A-STAR: The All-Sky Transient Astrophysics Reporter
J. P. Osborne, P. O'Brien, P. Evans +5
The small mission A-STAR (All-Sky Transient Astrophysics Reporter) aims to locate the X-ray counterparts to ALIGO and other gravitational wave detector sources, to study the poorly…
