The WINTER Observatory: A One-Degree InGaAs Survey Camera to study the Transient Infrared Sky
Danielle Frostig, Nathan Lourie, Viraj Karambelkar +20
The Wide-field Infrared Transient Explorer (WINTER) is a near-infrared time-domain survey instrument operating on a dedicated 1-meter robotic telescope at Palomar Observatory. The…
Multi-color characterization of optically invisible FU Orionis-type outbursts: Demonstration and prospects for the WINTER survey
Danielle Frostig, Kishalay De, Lynne A. Hillenbrand +8
Episodic mass accretion is the dominant mechanism for mass assembly in the proto-stellar phase. Although prior optical time-domain searches have allowed detailed studies of individ…
A thermonuclear supernova interacting with hydrogen- and helium-deficient circumstellar material. SN 2020aeuh as a SN Ia-CSM-C/O?
K. Tsalapatas, J. Sollerman, R. Chiba +20
Identifying the progenitors of thermonuclear supernovae (Type Ia supernovae; SNe Ia) remains a key objective in contemporary astronomy. The rare subclass of SNe Ia that interacts w…
The slow brightening of WNTR23bzdiq / WTP19aalzlk : Possible onset of common-envelope evolution in an asymptotic giant branch star?
Viraj Karambelkar, Mansi Kasliwal, Kishalay De +6
We present WNTR23bzdiq/WTP19aalzlk, a slow eruption of an early-asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star in M31 identified by the Wide-field Infrared Transient Explorer (WINTER) near-inf…
WINTER on S250206dm: A near-infrared search for an electromagnetic counterpart to a gravitational-wave event
Danielle Frostig, Viraj R. Karambelkar, Robert D. Stein +10
We present near-infrared follow-up observations of the International Gravitational Wave Network (IGWN) event S250206dm with the Wide-Field Infrared Transient Explorer (WINTER). WIN…
Limits on the Ejecta Mass During the Search for Kilonovae Associated with Neutron Star-Black Hole Mergers: A case study of S230518h, GW230529, S230627c and the Low-Significance Candidate S240422ed
M. Pillas, S. Antier, K. Ackley +78
Neutron star-black hole (NSBH) mergers, detectable via their gravitational-wave (GW) emission, are expected to produce kilonovae (KNe). Four NSBH candidates have been identified an…
