Discovery of Gaia17bpp, a Giant Star with the Deepest and Longest Known Dimming Event
Anastasios Tzanidakis, James R. A. Davenport, Eric C. Bellm +1
We report the serendipitous discovery of Gaia17bpp/2MASS J19372316+1759029, a star with a deep single large-amplitude dimming event of 4.5 magnitudes that lasted over 6.5 yea…
Probing pre-supernova mass loss in double-peaked Type Ibc supernovae from the Zwicky Transient Facility
Kaustav K. Das, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Jesper Sollerman +34
Eruptive mass loss of massive stars prior to supernova (SN) explosion is key to understanding their evolution and end fate. An observational signature of pre-SN mass loss is the de…
Long-rising Type II Supernovae in the Zwicky Transient Facility Census of the Local Universe
Tawny Sit, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Anastasios Tzanidakis +25
SN 1987A was an unusual hydrogen-rich core-collapse supernova originating from a blue supergiant star. Similar blue supergiant explosions remain a small family of events, and are b…
Collapsars as Sites of r-process Nucleosynthesis: Systematic Near-Infrared Follow-up of Type Ic-BL Supernovae
Shreya Anand, Jennifer Barnes, Sheng Yang +41
One of the open questions following the discovery of GW170817 is whether neutron star mergers are the only astrophysical sites capable of producing -process elements. Simulation…
