X-ray/UV/optical variability of NGC 4593 with Swift: Reprocessing of X-rays by an extended reprocessor

I M McHardy, S D Connolly, K Horne E M Cackett +25

We report the results of intensive X-ray, UV and optical monitoring of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4593 with Swift. There is no intrinsic flux-related spectral change in the the varia…

The quiescent progenitors of four Type II-P/L supernovae

Samson A. Johnson, C. S. Kochanek, S. M. Adams

We present Large Binocular Telescope difference imaging data for the final years of four Type II-P/L supernovae progenitors. For all four, we find no significant evidence for stoch…

Energetic eruptions leading to a peculiar hydrogen-rich explosion of a massive star

Iair Arcavi, D. Andrew Howell, Daniel Kasen +50

Every supernova hitherto observed has been considered to be the terminal explosion of a star. Moreover, all supernovae with absorption lines in their spectra show those lines decre…

Quasar Accretion Disk Sizes From Continuum Reverberation Mapping From the Dark Energy Survey

D. Mudd, P. Martini, Y. Zu +69

We present accretion disk size measurements for 15 luminous quasars at derived from light curves from the Dark Energy Survey. We measure the disk sizes…

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping Project: H and H Reverberation Measurements From First-year Spectroscopy and Photometry

C. J. Grier, J. R. Trump, Yue Shen +39

We present reverberation mapping results from the first year of combined spectroscopic and photometric observations of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping Project. W…
