The Zwicky Transient Facility Bright Transient Survey I: Spectroscopic Classification and the Redshift Completeness of Local Galaxy Catalogs

U. C. Fremling, A. A. Miller, Y. Sharma +37

The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) is performing a three-day cadence survey of the visible Northern sky (~3). The transient candidates found in this survey are announced via pu…

SUGAR: An improved empirical model of Type Ia Supernovae based on spectral features

P. -F. Léget, E. Gangler, F. Mondon +40

Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) are widely used to measure the expansion of the Universe. Improving distance measurements of SNe Ia is one technique to better constrain the acceleratio…

SN 2012dn from early to late times: 09dc-like supernovae reassessed

S. Taubenberger, A. Floers, C. Vogl +40

As a candidate 'super-Chandrasekhar' or 09dc-like Type Ia supernova (SN Ia), SN 2012dn shares many characteristics with other members of this remarkable class of objects but lacks…

GROWTH on S190425z: Searching thousands of square degrees to identify an optical or infrared counterpart to a binary neutron star merger with the Zwicky Transient Facility and Palomar Gattini IR

Michael W. Coughlin, Tomás Ahumada, Shreya Anand +76

The third observing run by LVC has brought the discovery of many compact binary coalescences. Following the detection of the first binary neutron star merger in this run (LIGO/Virg…

SN 2018fif: The Explosion of a Large Red Supergiant Discovered in Its Infancy by the Zwicky Transient Facility

Maayane T. Soumagnac, Noam Ganot, Ido Irani +32

High cadence transient surveys are able to capture supernovae closer to their first light than before. Applying analytical models to such early emission, we can constrain the proge…

Transient processing and analysis using : Alert Management, Photometry and Evaluation of Lightcurves

J. Nordin, V. Brinnel, J. van Santen +18

Both multi-messenger astronomy and new high-throughput wide-field surveys require flexible tools for the selection and analysis of astrophysical transients. We here introduce the A…
