Scattered-Light Echoes from the Historical Galactic Supernovae Cassiopeia A and Tycho (SN 1572)

A. Rest, D. L. Welch, N. B. Suntzeff +16

We report the discovery of an extensive system of scattered light echo arclets associated with the recent supernovae in the local neighbourhood of the Milky Way: Tycho (SN 1572) an…

Lightcurves of Type Ia Supernovae from Near the Time of Explosion

Arti Garg, Christopher W. Stubbs, Peter Challis +18

We present a set of 11 type Ia supernova (SN Ia) lightcurves with dense, pre-maximum sampling. These supernovae (SNe), in galaxies behind the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), were dis…

Massive-Star Supernovae as Major Dust Factories

Ben E. K. Sugerman, Barbara Ercolano, M. J. Barlow +15

We present late-time optical and mid-infrared observations of the Type-II supernova 2003gd in NGC 628. Mid-infrared excesses consistent with cooling dust in the ejecta are observed…

Removing the Microlensing Blending-Parallax Degeneracy Using Source Variability

R. J. Assef, A. Gould, the EROS-2 +2

Microlensing event MACHO 97-SMC-1 is one of the rare microlensing events for which the source is a variable star, simply because most variable stars are systematically eliminated f…

Echoes from Ancient Supernovae in the Large Magellanic Cloud

A. Rest, N. B. Suntzeff, K. Olsen +13

In principle, the light from historical supernovae could still be visible as scattered-light echoes even centuries later. However, while echoes have been discovered around some nea…

Stellar Variability in the Sub-Horizontal Branch Region of the LMC

D. Lepischak, D. L. Welch

We present the initial results from an in-depth re-examination of the MACHO project Large Magellanic Cloud database to identify and characterize stellar variability near the inters…
