SN 2023zaw: an ultra-stripped, nickel-poor supernova from a low-mass progenitor
Kaustav K. Das, Christoffer Fremling, Mansi M. Kasliwal +34
We present SN 2023zaw a sub-luminous ( mag) and rapidly-evolving supernova ( days), with the lowest nickel mass (…
SN 2018fif: The Explosion of a Large Red Supergiant Discovered in Its Infancy by the Zwicky Transient Facility
Maayane T. Soumagnac, Noam Ganot, Ido Irani +32
High cadence transient surveys are able to capture supernovae closer to their first light than before. Applying analytical models to such early emission, we can constrain the proge…
iPTF 16hgs: A double-peaked Ca-rich gap transient in a metal poor, star forming dwarf galaxy
Kishalay De, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Therese Cantwell +18
Calcium rich gap transients represent an intriguing new class of faint and fast evolving supernovae that exhibit strong [Ca II] emission in their nebular phase spectra. In this pap…
iPTF16fnl: a faint and fast tidal disruption event in an E+A galaxy
N. Blagorodnova, S. Gezari, T. Hung +30
We present ground-based and \textit{Swift} observations of iPTF16fnl, a likely tidal disruption event (TDE) discovered by the intermediate Palomar Transient Factory (iPTF) survey a…
The GALEX Time Domain Survey. II. Wavelength-Dependent Variability of Active Galactic Nuclei in the Pan-STARRS1 Medium Deep Survey
T. Hung, S. Gezari, D. O. Jones +12
We analyze the wavelength-dependent variability of a sample of spectroscopically confirmed active galactic nuclei (AGN) selected from near-UV () variable sources in the GALEX…
The Arecibo Fast Radio Burst: Dense Circum-burst Medium
S. R. Kulkarni, E. O. Ofek, J. D. Neill
The nature of fast radio bursts (FRB) has been extensively debated. Here we investigate FRB121102, detected at Arecibo telescope and remarkable for its unusually large spectral ind…
Supernova PTF 09uj: A possible shock breakout from a dense circumstellar wind
E. O. Ofek, I. Rabinak, J. D. Neill +29
Type-IIn supernovae (SNe), which are characterized by strong interaction of their ejecta with the surrounding circumstellar matter (CSM), provide a unique opportunity to study the…
