A gravitational wave detectable candidate Type Ia supernova progenitor
Emma T. Chickles, Kevin B. Burdge, Joheen Chakraborty +37
Type Ia supernovae, critical for studying cosmic expansion, arise from thermonuclear explosions of white dwarfs, but their precise progenitor pathways remain unclear. Growing evide…
Hertzsprung gap stars in nearby galaxies and the Quest for Luminous Red Novae Progenitors
Hugo Tranin, Nadejda Blagorodnova, Viraj Karambelkar +5
After the main sequence phase, stars more massive than 2.5 M rapidly evolve through the Hertzsprung gap as yellow giants and supergiants (YSG), before settling into the red…
Searching for New Cataclysmic Variables in the Chandra Source Catalog
Ilkham Galiullin, Antonio C. Rodriguez, Kareem El-Badry +14
Cataclysmic variables (CVs) are compact binary systems in which a white dwarf accretes matter from a Roche-lobe-filling companion star. In this study, we searched for new CVs in th…
The BlackGEM telescope array I: Overview
Paul J. Groot, S. Bloemen, P. Vreeswijk +75
The main science aim of the BlackGEM array is to detect optical counterparts to gravitational wave mergers. Additionally, the array will perform a set of synoptic surveys to detect…
A Joint SRG/eROSITA + ZTF Search: Discovery of a 97-min Period Eclipsing Cataclysmic Variable with Evidence of a Brown Dwarf Secondary
Ilkham Galiullin, Antonio C. Rodriguez, Shrinivas R. Kulkarni +24
Cataclysmic variables (CVs) that have evolved past the period minimum during their lifetimes are predicted to be systems with a brown dwarf donor. While population synthesis models…
