Optical follow-up of the neutron star-black hole mergers S200105ae and S200115j
Shreya Anand, Michael W. Coughlin, Mansi M. Kasliwal +46
LIGO and Virgo's third observing run (O3) revealed the first neutron star-black hole (NSBH) merger candidates in gravitational waves. These events are predicted to synthesize r-pro…
A systematic search of Zwicky Transient Facility data for ultracompact binary LISA-detectable gravitational-wave sources
Kevin B. Burdge, Thomas A. Prince, Jim Fuller +31
Using photometry collected with the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF), we are conducting an ongoing survey for binary systems with short orbital periods ( with…
The Zwicky Transient Facility: Observing System
Richard Dekany, Roger M. Smith, Reed Riddle +23
The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) Observing System (OS) is the data collector for the ZTF project to study astrophysical phenomena in the time domain. ZTF OS is based upon the 48…
A new class of Roche lobe-filling hot subdwarf binaries
Thomas Kupfer, Evan B. Bauer, Kevin B. Burdge +30
We present the discovery of the second binary with a Roche lobe-filling hot subdwarf transferring mass to a white dwarf (WD) companion. This 56 minute binary was discovered using d…
Kilonova Luminosity Function Constraints based on Zwicky Transient Facility Searches for 13 Neutron Star Mergers
Mansi M. Kasliwal, Shreya Anand, Tomas Ahumada +100
We present a systematic search for optical counterparts to 13 gravitational wave (GW) triggers involving at least one neutron star during LIGO/Virgo's third observing run. We searc…
SN2019dge: a Helium-rich Ultra-Stripped Envelope Supernova
Yuhan Yao, Kishalay De, Mansi M. Kasliwal +28
We present observations of ZTF18abfcmjw (SN2019dge), a helium-rich supernova with a fast-evolving light curve indicating an extremely low ejecta mass () and l…
