The Zwicky Transient Facility: Observing System
Richard Dekany, Roger M. Smith, Reed Riddle +23
The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) Observing System (OS) is the data collector for the ZTF project to study astrophysical phenomena in the time domain. ZTF OS is based upon the 48…
A non-equipartition shockwave traveling in a dense circumstellar environment around SN2020oi
Assaf Horesh, Itai Sfaradi, Mattias Ergon +34
We report the discovery and panchromatic followup observations of the young Type Ic supernova, SN2020oi, in M100, a grand design spiral galaxy at a mere distance of Mpc. We fo…
Kilonova Luminosity Function Constraints based on Zwicky Transient Facility Searches for 13 Neutron Star Mergers
Mansi M. Kasliwal, Shreya Anand, Tomas Ahumada +100
We present a systematic search for optical counterparts to 13 gravitational wave (GW) triggers involving at least one neutron star during LIGO/Virgo's third observing run. We searc…
The Zwicky Transient Facility Bright Transient Survey I: Spectroscopic Classification and the Redshift Completeness of Local Galaxy Catalogs
U. C. Fremling, A. A. Miller, Y. Sharma +37
The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) is performing a three-day cadence survey of the visible Northern sky (~3). The transient candidates found in this survey are announced via pu…
DeepStreaks: identifying fast-moving objects in the Zwicky Transient Facility data with deep learning
Dmitry A. Duev, Ashish Mahabal, Quanzhi Ye +12
We present DeepStreaks, a convolutional-neural-network, deep-learning system designed to efficiently identify streaking fast-moving near-Earth objects that are detected in the data…
ZTF18aalrxas: A Type IIb Supernova from a very extended low-mass progenitor
C. Fremling, H. Ko, A. Dugas +31
We investigate ZTF18aalrxas, a double-peaked Type IIb core-collapse supernova (SN) discovered during science validation of the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF). ZTF18aalrxas was dis…
