Optimising a magnitude-limited spectroscopic training sample for photometric classification of supernovae

Jonathan E. Carrick, Isobel M. Hook, Elizabeth Swann +4

In preparation for photometric classification of transients from the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) we run tests with different training data sets. Using estimates of the d…

The Palomar Transient Factory Core-Collapse Supernova Host-Galaxy Sample. I. Host-Galaxy Distribution Functions and Environment-Dependence of CCSNe

Steve Schulze, Ofer Yaron, Jesper Sollerman +51

Several thousand core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) of different flavors have been discovered so far. However, identifying their progenitors has remained an outstanding open question…

An optimised tiling pattern for multi-object spectroscopic surveys: application to the 4MOST survey

E. Tempel, T. Tuvikene, M. M. Muru +22

Large multi-object spectroscopic surveys require automated algorithms to optimise their observing strategy. One of the most ambitious upcoming spectroscopic surveys is the 4MOST su…

AT 2019abn: multi-wavelength observations over the first 200 days

S. C. Williams, D. Jones, P. Pessev +8

AT 2019abn was discovered in the nearby M51 galaxy by the Zwicky Transient Facility at more than two magnitudes and around three weeks prior to its optical peak. We aim to conduct…
