The Broad-lined Ic Supernova ZTF18aaqjovh (SN 2018bvw): An Optically-discovered Engine-driven Supernova Candidate with Luminous Radio Emission
Anna Y. Q. Ho, Alessandra Corsi, S. Bradley Cenko +23
We present ZTF18aaqjovh (SN 2018bvw), a high-velocity ("broad-lined") stripped-envelope (Type Ic) supernova (Ic-BL SN) discovered in the Zwicky Transient Facility one-day cadence s…
ZTF Early Observations of Type Ia Supernovae I: Properties of the 2018 Sample
Yuhan Yao, Adam A. Miller, S. R. Kulkarni +32
Early-time observations of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are essential to constrain their progenitor properties. In this paper, we present high-quality light curves of 127 SNe Ia dis…
A New Class of Changing-Look LINERs
Sara Frederick, Suvi Gezari, Matthew J. Graham +28
We report the discovery of six active galactic nuclei (AGN) caught "turning on" during the first nine months of the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) survey. The host galaxies were c…
ZTF18aalrxas: A Type IIb Supernova from a very extended low-mass progenitor
C. Fremling, H. Ko, A. Dugas +31
We investigate ZTF18aalrxas, a double-peaked Type IIb core-collapse supernova (SN) discovered during science validation of the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF). ZTF18aalrxas was dis…
2900 square degree search for the optical counterpart of short gamma-ray burst GRB 180523B with the Zwicky Transient Facility
Michael W. Coughlin, Tomas Ahumada, S. Bradley Cenko +31
There is significant interest in the models for production of short gamma-ray bursts. Until now, the number of known short gamma-ray bursts with multi-wavelength afterglows has bee…
ZTF 18aaqeasu (SN 2018byg): A Massive Helium-shell Double Detonation on a Sub-Chandrasekhar Mass White Dwarf
Kishalay De, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Abigail Polin +24
The detonation of a helium shell on a white dwarf has been proposed as a possible explosion triggering mechanism for Type Ia supernovae. Here, we report ZTF 18aaqeasu (SN 2018byg/A…
