The near ultraviolet transient surveyor (NUTS): An ultraviolet telescope to observe variable sources
Experimental Astronomy, 2022 Observing the ultraviolet (UV) sky for time-variable phenomena is one of the many exciting science goals that can be achieved by a relatively small aperture telescope in space. The Near Ultraviolet Transient Surveyor (NUTS) is a wide-field ($3^\circ$) imager with a photon-counting detector in the near-UV (NUV, 200-300 nm), to be flown on an upcoming ...

A Swift Response to Newly Discovered, Nearby Transients
Universe, 2023 The Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory has proven to be an extraordinary supernova (SN) observatory. The clearest application of Swift’s unique strengths is obtaining very early UV and X-ray data of young SNe, which enables robust constraints on their ...

Searching EUVE Data for Transient/Flaring Extreme Ultraviolet Sources [PDF]
International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1996 The Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer (EUVE), because of its sky survey strategy, performed two observations of each point along a 180° by 1° strip of the ecliptic during the initial survey phase of the mission. One observation used the deep survey telescope, and another, 90 days earlier or later, used the all sky scanner telescopes, two of which have a ...

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 Stars that interact with supermassive black holes (SMBHs) can be either completely or partially destroyed by tides. In a partial tidal disruption event (TDE), the high-density core of the star remains intact, and the low-density outer envelope of the ...

SN 2022acko: The First Early Far-ultraviolet Spectra of a Type IIP Supernova
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 We present five far- and near-ultraviolet spectra of the Type II plateau supernova, SN 2022acko, obtained 5, 6, 7, 19, and 21 days after explosion, all observed with the Hubble Space Telescope/Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph.

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 The omnipresence of transient fluctuations in the solar wind, such as switchbacks (SBs) and small-scale magnetic flux ropes (SMFRs), have been well observed by the in situ observation of Parker Solar Probe (PSP), yet their sources are not clear. Possible
