HD 5501: A Rapidly Evolving Interacting Eclipsing Binary with a Variable Light Curve and H Emission

Richard O. Gray, Christopher. J. Corbally, Sean Curry +19

HD~5501, a hitherto little studied eclipsing binary with an early A-type primary, has been caught in a short-lived, astrophysically interesting phase of its binary evolution. Recen…

MASTER OT J030227.28+191754.5: an unprecedentedly energetic dwarf nova outburst

Yusuke Tampo, Taichi Kato, Keisuke Isogai +60

We present a detailed study of the MASTER OT J030227.28+191754.5 outburst in 2021-2022, reaching an amplitude of 10.2 mag and a duration of 60 d. The detections of (1) the double-p…

Profound optical flares from the relativistic jets of active galactic nuclei

Gopal Bhatta, Staszek Zola, M. Drozdz +11

Intense outbursts in blazars are among the most extreme phenomena seen in extragalactic objects. Studying these events can offer important information about the energetic physical…

Analysis of the intra-night variability of BL Lacertae during its August 2020 flare

Aditi Agarwal, B. Mihov, Vipul Agrawal +7

We present an analysis of the photometry of the blazar BL Lacertae on diverse timescales from mid-July to mid-September 2020. We have used 11 different optical telescopes ar…

Catching profound optical flares in blazars

Gopal Bhatta, Staszek Zola, M. Drozdz +11

Flaring episodes in blazars represent one of the most violent processes observed in extra-galactic objects. Studies of such events shed light on the energetics of the physical proc…

Optical variability of eight FRII-type quasars with 13-yr photometric light curves

Agnieszka Kuźmicz, Arti Goyal, Stanisław Zola +7

We characterize the optical variability properties of eight lobe-dominated radio quasars (QSOs): B2 070937, FBQS J095206.3235245, PG 1004130, [HB89] 1156631, [HB89] 142…
