A fast rising tidal disruption event from a candidate intermediate mass black hole

C. R. Angus, V. F. Baldassare, B. Mockler +36

Massive black holes (BHs) at the centres of massive galaxies are ubiquitous. The population of BHs within dwarf galaxies, on the other hand, is evasive. Dwarf galaxies are thought…

Progenitor and Close-In Circumstellar Medium of Type II Supernova 2020fqv from High-Cadence Photometry and Ultra-Rapid UV Spectroscopy

Samaporn Tinyanont, Ryan Ridden-Harper, Ryan Foley +35

We present observations of SN 2020fqv, a Virgo-cluster Type II core-collapse supernova (CCSN) with a high temporal resolution light curve from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satel…

SN2017jgh - A high-cadence complete shock cooling lightcurve of a SN IIb with the Kepler telescope

P. Armstrong, B. E. Tucker, A. Rest +69

SN 2017jgh is a type IIb supernova discovered by Pan-STARRS during the C16/C17 campaigns of the Kepler/K2 mission. Here we present the Kepler/K2 and ground based observations of SN…

AT 2019qyl in NGC 300: Internal Collisions in the Early Outflow from a Very Fast Nova in a Symbiotic Binary

Jacob E. Jencson, Jennifer E. Andrews, Howard E. Bond +39

Nova eruptions, thermonuclear explosions on the surfaces of white dwarfs (WDs), are now recognized to be among the most common shock-powered astrophysical transients. We present th…

SN 2019muj -- a well-observed Type Iax supernova that bridges the luminosity gap of the class

Barnabás Barna, Tamás Szalai, Saurabh W. Jha +38

We present early-time ( days) observations of SN 2019muj (= ASASSN-19tr), one of the best-observed members of the peculiar SN Iax class. Ultraviolet and optical photometri…

Comparing inclination dependent analyses of kilonova transients

J. Heinzel, M. W. Coughlin, T. Dietrich +7

The detection of AT2017gfo proved that binary neutron star mergers are progenitors of kilonovae. Using a combination of numerical-relativity and radiative-transfer simulations, the…
