Short GRB Host Galaxies I: Photometric and Spectroscopic Catalogs, Host Associations, and Galactocentric Offsets

Wen-fai Fong, Anya E. Nugent, Yuxin Dong +25

We present a comprehensive optical and near-infrared census of the fields of 90 short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) discovered in 2005-2021, constituting all short GRBs for which host ga…

Short GRB Host Galaxies. II. A Legacy Sample of Redshifts, Stellar Population Properties, and Implications for their Neutron Star Merger Origins

Anya E. Nugent, Wen-fai Fong, Yuxin Dong +14

We present the stellar population properties of 69 short gamma-ray burst (GRB) host galaxies, representing the largest uniformly-modeled sample to-date. Using the Prospector stella…

The Tidal Disruption Event AT 2018hyz I: Double-peaked emission lines and a flat Balmer decrement

P. Short, M. Nicholl, A. Lawrence +28

We present results from spectroscopic observations of AT 2018hyz, a transient discovered by the ASAS-SN survey at an absolute magnitude of mag, in the nucleus of a…

Measuring the delay time distribution of binary neutron stars. I. Through Scaling Relations of the Host Galaxies of Gravitational Wave Events

Mohammadtaher Safarzadeh, Edo Berger

The delay time distribution of (DTD) of binary neutron stars (BNS) remains poorly constrained, mainly by the small known population of Galactic binaries, the properties of short ga…

PS1-13cbe: The Rapid "Turn on" of a Seyfert 1

Reza Katebi, Ryan Chornock, Edo Berger +11

We present a nuclear transient event, PS1-13cbe, that was first discovered in the Pan-STARRS1 survey in 2013. The outburst occurred in the nucleus of the galaxy SDSS J222153.87+003…
