The Rise and Peak of the Luminous Type IIn SN 2017hcc/ATLAS17lsn from ASAS-SN and Swift UVOT Data

J. L. Prieto, Ping Chen, Subo Dong +7

We present observations of the rise and peak of the Type IIn supernova SN 2017hcc/ATLAS17lsn obtained by the All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (ASAS-SN) and Swift UVOT. The l…

The Foundation Supernova Survey: Motivation, Design, Implementation, and First Data Release

Ryan J. Foley, Daniel Scolnic, Armin Rest +25

The Foundation Supernova Survey aims to provide a large, high-fidelity, homogeneous, and precisely-calibrated low-redshift Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) sample for cosmology. The calib…

Observations of SN 2015F suggest a correlation between the intrinsic luminosity of Type Ia supernovae and the shape of their light curves >900 days after explosion

Or Graur, David R. Zurek, Armin Rest +6

The late-time light curves of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), observed days after explosion, present the possibility of a new diagnostic for SN Ia progenitor and explosion mode…

A kilonova as the electromagnetic counterpart to a gravitational-wave source

S. J. Smartt, T. -W. Chen, A. Jerkstrand +118

Gravitational waves were discovered with the detection of binary black hole mergers and they should also be detectable from lower mass neutron star mergers. These are predicted to…
