A Snapshot Survey of Nearby Supernovae with the Hubble Space Telescope
Raphael Baer-Way, Asia DeGraw, Weikang Zheng +12
Over recent decades, robotic (or highly automated) searches for supernovae (SNe) have discovered several thousand events, many of them in quite nearby galaxies (distances < 30 Mpc)…
The Lick Observatory Supernova Search follow-up program: photometry data release of 70 stripped-envelope supernovae
WeiKang Zheng, Benjamin E. Stahl, Thomas de Jaeger +85
We present BVRI and unfiltered Clear light curves of 70 stripped-envelope supernovae (SESNe), observed between 2003 and 2020, from the Lick Observatory Supernova Search (LOSS) foll…
Investigating the Nature of the Luminous Ambiguous Nuclear Transient ASASSN-17jz
Thomas W. -S. Holoien, Jack M. M. Neustadt, Patrick J. Vallely +31
We present observations of the extremely luminous but ambiguous nuclear transient (ANT) ASASSN-17jz, spanning roughly 1200 days of the object's evolution. ASASSN-17jz was discovere…
The Gravity Collective: A Search for the Electromagnetic Counterpart to the Neutron Star-Black Hole Merger GW190814
Charles D. Kilpatrick, David A. Coulter, Iair Arcavi +79
We present optical follow-up imaging obtained with the Katzman Automatic Imaging Telescope, Las Cumbres Observatory Global Telescope Network, Nickel Telescope, Swope Telescope, and…
Distribution of Si II 6355 Velocities of Type Ia Supernovae and Implications for Asymmetric Explosions
Keto D. Zhang, WeiKang Zheng, Thomas de Jaeger +7
The ejecta velocity is a very important parameter in studying the structure and properties of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). It is also a candidate key parameter in improving the uti…
The Berkeley sample of Type II supernovae: BVRI light curves and spectroscopy of 55 SNe II
T. de Jaeger, W. Zheng, B. E. Stahl +58
In this work, BV RI light curves of 55 Type II supernovae (SNe II) from the Lick Observatory Supernova Search program obtained with the Katzman Automatic Imaging Telescope and the…
The Type II-Plateau Supernova 2017eaw in NGC 6946 and Its Red Supergiant Progenitor
Schuyler D. Van Dyk, WeiKang Zheng, Justyn R. Maund +31
We present extensive optical photometric and spectroscopic observations, from 4 to 482 days after explosion, of the Type II-plateau (II-P) supernova (SN) 2017eaw in NGC 6946. SN 20…
