Robo-AO-2: entering the era of automated science operations, hybrid wavefront sensing, and adaptive secondary integration
Christoph Baranec, Reed Riddle, James Ou +10
We present the first science results and new technical milestones from the Robo-AO-2 facility at the University of Hawaii 2.2-m telescope. Following successful commissioning, the s…
Characterizing Sparse Asteroid Light Curves with Gaussian Processes
Christina Willecke Lindberg, Daniela Huppenkothen, R. Lynne Jones +11
In the era of wide-field surveys like the Zwicky Transient Facility and the Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time, sparse photometric measurements constitute an incre…
ZTF20aajnksq (AT2020blt): A Fast Optical Transient at With No Detected Gamma-Ray Burst Counterpart
Anna Y. Q. Ho, Daniel A. Perley, Paz Beniamini +27
We present ZTF20aajnksq (AT2020blt), a fast-fading ( mag in days) red ( mag) and luminous () optical transient at discover…
Uncovering a population of gravitational lens galaxies with magnified standard candle SN Zwicky
Ariel Goobar, Joel Johansson, Steve Schulze +35
Detecting gravitationally lensed supernovae is among the biggest challenges in astronomy. It involves a combination of two very rare phenomena: catching the transient signal of a s…
ZTF-observed late-time signals of pre-ZTF transients
Jacco H. Terwel, Kate Maguire, Jesper Sollerman +6
With large-scale surveys such as the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF), it has become possible to obtain a well-sampled light curve spanning the full length of the survey for any dis…
The large-scale environment of thermonuclear and core-collapse supernovae
Eleni Tsaprazi, Jens Jasche, Ariel Goobar +11
The new generation of wide-field time-domain surveys has made it feasible to study the clustering of supernova (SN) host galaxies in the large-scale structure (LSS) for the first t…
