Panning for gold, but finding helium: discovery of the ultra-stripped supernova SN2019wxt from gravitational-wave follow-up observations
I. Agudo, L. Amati, T. An +96
We present the results from multi-wavelength observations of a transient discovered during the follow-up of S191213g, a gravitational wave (GW) event reported by the LIGO-Virgo Col…
Evaluating chemically homogeneous evolution in stellar binaries: Electromagnetic implications -- Ionizing photons, SLSN-I, GRB, Ic-BL
Sohan Ghodla, J. J. Eldridge, Elizabeth R. Stanway +1
We investigate the occurrence of rapid-rotation induced chemically homogeneous evolution (CHE) due to strong tides and mass accretion in binaries. To this end, we generalize the re…
New constraints on the Bray conservation-of-momentum natal kick model from multiple distinct observations
S. M. Richards, J. J. Eldridge, M. M. Briel +2
Natal supernova kicks, the linear momentum compact remnants receive during their formation, are an essential part of binary population synthesis (BPS) models. Although these kicks…
VFTS 243 as predicted by the BPASS fiducial models
H. F. Stevance, S. Ghodla, S. Richards +3
The recent discovery of an unambiguous quiescent BH and main sequence O star companion in VFTS 243 opens the door to new constraints on theoretical stellar evolution and population…
What can Gaussian Processes really tell us about supernova lightcurves? Consequences for Type II(b) morphologies and genealogies
H. F. Stevance, A. Lee
Machine learning has become widely used in astronomy. Gaussian Process (GP) regression in particular has been employed a number of times to fit or re-sample supernova (SN) light-cu…
Understanding the high-mass binary black hole population from stable mass transfer and super-Eddington accretion in BPASS
M. M. Briel, H. F. Stevance, J. J. Eldridge
With the remarkable success of the LVK consortium in detecting binary black hole mergers, it has become possible to use the population properties to constrain our understanding of…
