Bright Type IIP Supernovae in Low-Metallicity Galaxies
Spencer Scott, Matt Nicholl, Peter Blanchard +2
We present measurements of the pseudo-equivalent width of the Fe II,5018 absorption feature in the spectra of 12 Type IIP supernovae (SNe II) in low luminosity () dwarf h…
Target of Opportunity Observations of Gravitational Wave Events with LSST
R. Margutti, P. Cowperthwaite, Z. Doctor +79
The discovery of the electromagnetic counterparts to the binary neutron star merger GW170817 has opened the era of GW+EM multi-messenger astronomy. Exploiting this breakthrough req…
A Search for Optical Emission from Binary-Black-Hole Merger GW170814 with the Dark Energy Camera
Z. Doctor, R. Kessler, K. Herner +96
Binary black hole (BBH) mergers found by the LIGO and Virgo detectors are of immense scientific interest to the astrophysics community, but are considered unlikely to be sources of…
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…
Meter- to Millimeter Emission from Cool Stellar Systems: Latest Results, Synergies Across the Spectrum, and Outlook for the Next Decade
Jan Forbrich, Peter K. G. Williams, Emily Drabek-Maunder +12
Radio observations of cool stellar systems provide unique information on their magnetic fields, high-energy processes, and chemistry. Buoyed by powerful new instruments (e.g. ALMA,…
LSST Target-of-Opportunity Observations of Gravitational Wave Events: Essential and Efficient
P. S. Cowperthwaite, V. A. Villar, D. M. Scolnic +1
We present simulated observations to assess the ability of LSST and the WFD survey to detect and characterize kilonovae - the optical emission associated with binary neutron star (…
