SN 2010ay is a Luminous and Broad-lined Type Ic Supernova within a Low-metallicity Host Galaxy

Nathan E. Sanders, A. M. Soderberg, S. Valenti +38

We report on our serendipitous pre-discovery detection and detailed follow-up of the broad-lined Type Ic supernova (SN) 2010ay at z = 0.067 imaged by the Pan-STARRS1 3pi survey jus…

A New Microlensing Event in the Doubly-Imaged Quasar Q0957+561

Laura J. Hainline, Christopher W. Morgan, J. N. Beach +6

We present evidence for ultraviolet/optical microlensing in the gravitationally lensed quasar Q0957+561. We combine new measurements from our optical monitoring campaign at the Uni…

YSOVAR: the first sensitive, wide-area, mid-IR photometric monitoring of the ONC

M. Morales-Calderón, J. R. Stauffer, L. A. Hillenbrand +33

We present initial results from time series imaging at infrared wavelengths of 0.9 sq. degrees in the Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC). During Fall 2009 we obtained 81 epochs of Spitzer…
