K2 Observations of SN 2018oh Reveal a Two-Component Rising Light Curve for a Type Ia Supernova
G. Dimitriadis, R. J. Foley, A. Rest +145
We present an exquisite, 30-min cadence Kepler (K2) light curve of the Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2018oh (ASASSN-18bt), starting weeks before explosion, covering the moment of explo…
Campaign 9 of the Mission: Observational Parameters, Scientific Drivers, and Community Involvement for a Simultaneous Space- and Ground-based Microlensing Survey
Calen B. Henderson, RadosÅaw Poleski, Matthew Penny +118
's Campaign 9 (C9) will conduct a 3.7 deg survey toward the Galactic bulge from 7/April through 1/July of 2016 that will leverage the spatial separation between…
Seeing Double: ASASSN-18bt Exhibits a Two-Component Rise in the Early-Time K2 Light Curve
B. J. Shappee, T. W. -s. Holoien, M. R. Drout +109
On 2018 Feb. 4.41, the All-Sky Automated Survey for SuperNovae (ASAS-SN) discovered ASASSN-18bt in the K2 Campaign 16 field. With a redshift of z=0.01098 and a peak apparent magnit…
Kepler K2 Campaign 9: II. First space-based discovery of an exoplanet using microlensing
D. Specht, R. Poleski, M. T. Penny +83
We present K2-2016-BLG-0005Lb, a densely sampled, planetary binary caustic-crossing microlensing event found from a blind search of data gathered from Campaign 9 of the Kepler K2 m…
Photometric and Spectroscopic Properties of Type Ia Supernova 2018oh with Early Excess Emission from the 2 Observations
W. Li, X. Wang, J. Vinkó +160
Supernova (SN) 2018oh (ASASSN-18bt) is the first spectroscopically-confirmed type Ia supernova (SN Ia) observed in the field. The data revealed an excess emission…
