A mildly relativistic outflow from the energetic, fast-rising blue optical transient CSS161010 in a dwarf galaxy

D. L. Coppejans, R. Margutti, G. Terreran +35

We present X-ray and radio observations of the Fast Blue Optical Transient (FBOT) CRTS-CSS161010 J045834-081803 (CSS161010 hereafter) at t=69-531 days. CSS161010 shows luminous X-r…

SN 2016coi (ASASSN-16fp): an energetic H-stripped core-collapse supernova from a massive stellar progenitor with large mass loss

G. Terreran, R. Margutti, D. Bersier +25

We present comprehensive observations and analysis of the energetic H-stripped SN 2016coi (a.k.a. ASASSN-16fp), spanning the -ray through optical and radio wavelengths, acquired…

An embedded X-ray source shines through the aspherical AT2018cow: revealing the inner workings of the most luminous fast-evolving optical transients

Raffaella Margutti, B. D. Metzger, R. Chornock +41

We present the first extensive radio to gamma-ray observations of a fast-rising blue optical transient (FBOT), AT2018cow, over its first ~100 days. AT2018cow rose over a few days t…

iPTF16asu: A Luminous, Rapidly-Evolving, and High-Velocity Supernova

L. Whitesides, R. Lunnan, M. M. Kasliwal +23

Wide-field surveys are discovering a growing number of rare transients whose physical origin is not yet well understood. Here, we present optical and UV data and analysis of iPTF16…

The first observation of an intermediate flare from SGR 1935+2154

A. V. Kozlova, G. L. Israel, D. S. Svinkin +8

We report on the bright burst detected by four Interplanetary network (IPN) spacecraft on 2015 April 12. The IPN localization of the source is consistent with the position of the r…

Investigation of Primordial Black Hole Bursts using Interplanetary Network Gamma-ray Bursts

T. N. Ukwatta, K. Hurley, J. H MacGibbon +22

The detection of a gamma-ray burst (GRB) in the solar neighborhood would have very important implications for GRB phenomenology. The leading theories for cosmological GRBs would no…
