SN 2005bf: A Possible Transition Event Between Type Ib/c Supernovae and Gamma Ray Bursts

Gaston Folatelli, Carlos Contreras, M. M. Phillips +22

We present u'g'r'i'BV photometry and optical spectroscopy of the Type Ib/Ic SN 2005bf covering the first ~100 days following discovery. The u'g'BV light curves displayed a double-p…

An HST Search for Supernovae Accompanying X-ray Flashes

A. M. Soderberg, S. R. Kulkarni, D. B. Fox +24

We present the results from an Hubble Space Telescope/ACS search for supernovae associated with X-ray flashes 020903, 040701, 040812 and 040916. We find strong evidence that XRF 02…

On the Interpretation of High Velocity White Dwarfs as Members of the Galactic Halo

P. Bergeron, Maria Teresa Ruiz, M. Hamuy +4

A detailed analysis of 32 of the 38 halo white dwarf candidates identified by Oppenheimer et al. is presented, based on model atmosphere fits to observed energy distributions built…
