Abstract: operatornameSL(2,q)-unitals are unitals of order q admitting a regular action of operatornameSL(2,q) on the complement of some block. They can be obtained from affine operatornameSL(2,q)-unitals via parallelisms. We compute a sharp upper bound for automorphism groups of affine operatornameSL(2,q)-unitals and show that exactly two parallelisms are fixed by all automorphisms. In operatornameSL(2,q)-unitals obtained as closures of affine operatornameSL(2,q)-unitals via those two parallelisms, we show that there is one block fixed under the full automorphism group.
