Rapidly evolving transients in the Dark Energy Survey

M. Pursiainen, M. Childress, M. Smith +79

We present the results of a search for rapidly evolving transients in the Dark Energy Survey Supernova Programme. These events are characterized by fast light curve evolution (rise…

Studying the Ultraviolet Spectrum of the First Spectroscopically Confirmed Supernova at redshift two

M. Smith, M. Sullivan, R. C. Nichol +87

We present observations of DES16C2nm, the first spectroscopically confirmed hydrogen-free superluminous supernova (SLSN-I) at redshift z~2. DES16C2nm was discovered by the Dark Ene…

Searching for Dark Matter Annihilation in Recently Discovered Milky Way Satellites with Fermi-LAT

The Fermi-LAT, DES Collaborations, A. Albert +70

We search for excess gamma-ray emission coincident with the positions of confirmed and candidate Milky Way satellite galaxies using 6 years of data from the Fermi Large Area Telesc…

A Search for Kilonovae in the Dark Energy Survey

Z. Doctor, R. Kessler, H. Y. Chen +68

The coalescence of a binary neutron star (BNS) pair is expected to produce gravitational waves (GW) and electromagnetic (EM) radiation, both of which may be detectable with current…

Search for Gamma-Ray Emission from DES Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy Candidates with Fermi-LAT Data

LAT Collaboration, The DES Collaboration, A. Drlica-Wagner +123

Due to their proximity, high dark-matter content, and apparent absence of non-thermal processes, Milky Way dwarf spheroidal satellite galaxies (dSphs) are excellent targets for the…
