SNe 2013K and 2013am: observed and physical properties of two slow, normal Type IIP events
L. Tomasella, E. Cappellaro, M. L. Pumo +28
We present one year of optical and near-infrared photometry and spectroscopy of the Type IIP SNe 2013K and 2013am. Both objects are affected by significant extinction, due to their…
SN 2017dio: a type-Ic supernova exploding in a hydrogen-rich circumstellar medium
Hanindyo Kuncarayakti, Keiichi Maeda, Christopher J. Ashall +42
SN 2017dio shows both spectral characteristics of a type-Ic supernova (SN) and signs of a hydrogen-rich circumstellar medium (CSM). Prominent, narrow emission lines of H and He are…
Euclid: Superluminous supernovae in the Deep Survey
C. Inserra, R. C. Nichol, D. Scovacricchi +31
In the last decade, astronomers have found a new type of supernova called `superluminous supernovae' (SLSNe) due to their high peak luminosity and long light-curves. These hydrogen…
GRAWITA: VLT Survey Telescope observations of the gravitational wave sources GW150914 and GW151226
E. Brocato, M. Branchesi, E. Cappellaro +49
We report the results of deep optical follow-up surveys of the first two gravitational-wave sources, GW150914 and GW151226, done by the GRAvitational Wave Inaf TeAm Collaboration (…
Spectroscopic identification of r-process nucleosynthesis in a double neutron star merger
E. Pian, P. D'Avanzo, S. Benetti +81
The merger of two neutron stars is predicted to give rise to three major detectable phenomena: a short burst of gamma-rays, a gravitational wave signal, and a transient optical/nea…
The discovery of the electromagnetic counterpart of GW170817: kilonova AT 2017gfo/DLT17ck
Stefano Valenti, David J. Sand, Sheng Yang +7
During the second observing run of the Laser Interferometer gravitational- wave Observatory (LIGO) and Virgo Interferometer, a gravitational-wave signal consistent with a binary ne…
