Energetic nuclear transients in luminous and ultraluminous infrared galaxies
T. M. Reynolds, S. Mattila, E. Kankare +5
Energetic nuclear outbursts have been discovered in luminous and ultraluminous infrared galaxies (U/LIRGs) at unexpectedly high rates. To investigate this population of transients,…
Variability-selected intermediate mass black hole candidates in dwarf galaxies from ZTF and WISE
Charlotte Ward, Suvi Gezari, Peter Nugent +9
While it is difficult to observe the first black hole seeds in the early Universe, we can study intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) in local dwarf galaxies for clues about their…
Two c's in a pod: Cosmology independent measurement of the Type Ia supernova colour-luminosity relation with a sibling pair
Rahul Biswas, Ariel Goobar, Suhail Dhawan +19
Using Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) observations, we identify a pair of "sibling" Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), i.e., hosted by the same galaxy at z = 0.0541. They exploded within…
First results from GeMS/GSAOI for project SUNBIRD: Supernovae UNmasked By Infra-Red Detection
E. C. Kool, S. Ryder, E. Kankare +13
Core collapse supernova (CCSN) rates suffer from large uncertainties as many CCSNe exploding in regions of bright background emission and significant dust extinction remain unobser…
Star formation and AGN activity in a sample of local Luminous Infrared Galaxies through multi-wavelength characterization
Rubén Herrero-Illana, Miguel Á. Pérez-Torres, Zara Randriamanakoto +8
Nuclear starbursts and AGN activity are the main heating processes in luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs) and their relationship is fundamental to understand galaxy evolution. In th…
