Results of the follow-up of ANTARES neutrino alerts

A. Albert, S. Alves, M. André +188

High-energy neutrinos could be produced in the interaction of charged cosmic rays with matter or radiation surrounding astrophysical sources. To look for transient sources associat…

Orphan optical flare as SOSS emission afterglow, localization in time

V. Lipunov, V. Kornilov, K. Zhirkov +24

We report on MASTER optical observations of an afterglow-like optical and X-ray transient AT2021lfa/ZTF21aayokph. We detected the initial steady brightening of the transient at 7σ…

The early afterglow of GRB 190829A

S. Dichiara, E. Troja, V. Lipunov +19

GRB 190829A at z=0.0785 is the fourth closest long GRB ever detected by the Neil Gehrels Swift observatory, and the third confirmed case with a very high energy component. We prese…

Optical Observations Reveal Strong Evidence for High Energy Neutrino Progenitor

V. M. Lipunov, V. G. Kornilov, K. K. Zhirkov +32

We present the earliest astronomical observation of a high energy neutrino error box in which its variability was discovered after high-energy neutrinos detection. The one robotic…

Multi-wavelenth monitoring of the changing-look AGN NGC 2617 during state changes

V. L. Oknyansky, C. M. Gaskell, N. A. Huseynov +18

Optical and near-infrared photometry, optical spectroscopy, and soft X-ray and UV monitoring of the changing-look active galactic nucleus NGC 2617 show that it continues to have th…
