Testing a Galactic Lensing Hypothesis with the Prompt Emission of GRB 221009A
Joshua S. Bloom
Even at modest amplification, the optical depth to gravitational lensing through the Galaxy is . However, the large apparent isotropic-equivalent energy of GRB 221009A co…
A data science platform to enable time-domain astronomy
Michael W. Coughlin, Joshua S. Bloom, Guy Nir +50
SkyPortal is an open-source software package designed to efficiently discover interesting transients, manage follow-up, perform characterization, and visualize the results. By enab…
Tidal Disruption Event Demographics with the Zwicky Transient Facility: Volumetric Rates, Luminosity Function, and Implications for the Local Black Hole Mass Function
Yuhan Yao, Vikram Ravi, Suvi Gezari +26
We conduct a systematic tidal disruption event (TDE) demographics analysis using the largest sample of optically selected TDEs. A flux-limited, spectroscopically complete sample of…
Collapsars as Sites of r-process Nucleosynthesis: Systematic Near-Infrared Follow-up of Type Ic-BL Supernovae
Shreya Anand, Jennifer Barnes, Sheng Yang +41
One of the open questions following the discovery of GW170817 is whether neutron star mergers are the only astrophysical sites capable of producing -process elements. Simulation…
A very luminous jet from the disruption of a star by a massive black hole
Igor Andreoni, Michael W. Coughlin, Daniel A. Perley +78
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) are bursts of electromagnetic energy released when supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at the centers of galaxies violently disrupt a star that passes t…
A radio-detected Type Ia supernova with helium-rich circumstellar material
Erik C. Kool, Joel Johansson, Jesper Sollerman +34
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are thermonuclear explosions of degenerate white dwarf (WD) stars destabilized by mass accretion from a companion star, but the nature of their progenit…
