Repeating nuclear transients from repeating partial tidal disruption events: reproducing ASASSN-14ko and AT2020vdq

Kavli Affiliate: Dheeraj R. Pasham | First 5 Authors: Ananya Bandopadhyay, Eric R. Coughlin, C. J. Nixon, Dheeraj R. Pasham, | Summary: Some electromagnetic outbursts from the nuclei of distant galaxies have been found to repeat on months-to-years timescales, and each of these sources can putatively arise from the accretion flares generated through the repeated […]

The R-Process Alliance: 2MASS J22132050-5137385, the Star with the Highest-known r-process Enhancement at [Eu/Fe] = +2.45

Kavli Affiliate: Anna Frebel | First 5 Authors: Ian U. Roederer, Timothy C. Beers, Kohei Hattori, Vinicius M. Placco, Terese T. Hansen | Summary: We present stellar parameters and chemical abundances of 47 elements detected in the bright (V = 11.63) very metal-poor ([Fe/H] = -2.20 +- 0.12) star 2MASS J22132050-5137385. We observed this star […]

The TEMPO Survey II: Science Cases Leveraged from a Proposed 30-Day Time Domain Survey of the Orion Nebula with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Melinda Soares-Furtado, Mary Anne Limbach, Andrew Vanderburg, John Bally, Juliette Becker | Summary: The TEMPO (Transiting Exosatellites, Moons, and Planets in Orion) Survey is a proposed 30-day observational campaign using the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope. By providing deep, high-resolution, short-cadence infrared photometry of a dynamic star-forming […]

The Velocity Dispersion Function for Quiescent Galaxies in Massive Clusters from IllustrisTNG

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Jubee Sohn, Margaret J. Geller, Josh Borrow, Mark Vogelsberger, | Summary: We derive the central stellar velocity dispersion function for quiescent galaxies in 280 massive clusters with $log (M_{200} / M_{odot}) > 14$ in IllustrisTNG300. The velocity dispersion function is an independent tracer of the dark matter […]

X-ray and Radio campaign of the Z-source GX 340+0: discovery of X-ray polarization and its implications

Kavli Affiliate: Deepto Chakrabarty | First 5 Authors: Yash Bhargava, Mason Ng, Liang Zhang, Arvind Balasubramanian, Thomas D. Russell | Summary: We present the discovery of X-ray polarization from the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary and Z-source, GX~340$+$0, using an Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) observation in March 2024. Along with the IXPE observation, we […]
