  • Panning for gold, but finding helium: Discovery of the ultra-stripped supernova SN 2019wxt from gravitational-wave follow-up observations
    We present the results from multi-wavelength observations of a transient discovered during an intensive follow-up campaign of S191213g, a gravitational wave (GW) event reported by the LIGO-Virgo Collaboration as a possible binary neutron star merger in a low latency search. This search yielded SN 2019wxt, a young transient in a galaxy whose sky

  • OzDES Reverberation Mapping Programme: Mg II lags and R-L relation
    The correlation between the broad line region radius and continuum luminosity (R-L relation) of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is critical for single-epoch mass estimates of supermassive black holes (SMBHs). At z ~ 1-2, where AGN activity peaks, the R-L relation is constrained by the reverberation mapping (RM) lags of the Mg II line. We present 25

  • Outcome of the Dart Mission, the First Planetary Defence Experiment
    On the 26th of September, 2022, at 23:14 UT, the APL/NASA Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft impacted successfully on the secondary of the NEA binary asteroid (65803) Didymos, after a 10 months travel. [1] The 589 kg spacecraft impacted Dimorphos at 6.14 km/s, and images of the system were taken by the DRACO camera onboard DART

  • Opacity for realistic 3D MHD simulations of cool stellar atmospheres
    Context. Realistic three-dimensional time-dependent simulations of stellar near-surface convection employ the opacity binning method for the efficient and accurate computation of the radiative energy exchange. The method provides several orders of magnitude of speedup, but its implementation includes a number of free parameters. Aims: Our aim is to

  • On the orientation of historic Christian churches of Fuerteventura: conciliating tradition, winds and topography
    We present the results of an analysis of the precise spatial orientation of colonial Christian churches located in the Canary Island of Fuerteventura (Spain). Our sample consists of 48 churches, most built during the period between the Castilian conquest led by the Norman Jean de Béthencourt in the early fifteenth century and the end of the

  • NGC 1436: the making of a lenticular galaxy in the Fornax Cluster
    We study the evolutionary path of the Fornax Cluster galaxy NGC 1436, which is known to be currently transitioning from a spiral into a lenticular morphology. This galaxy hosts an inner star-forming disc and an outer quiescent disc, and we analyse data from the MeerKAT Fornax Survey, ALMA, and the Fornax 3D survey to study the interstellar medium
