A Late-time Radio Survey of Short GRBs at : New Constraints on the Remnants of Neutron Star Mergers

Genevieve Schroeder, Ben Margalit, Wen-fai Fong +7

Massive, rapidly-spinning magnetar remnants produced as a result of binary neutron star (BNS) mergers may deposit a fraction of their energy into the surrounding kilonova ejecta, p…

An extremely energetic supernova from a very massive star in a dense medium

Matt Nicholl, Peter K. Blanchard, Edo Berger +14

The interaction of a supernova with a circumstellar medium (CSM) can dramatically increase the emitted luminosity by converting kinetic energy to thermal energy. In 'superluminous'…
