Las Cumbres Observatory Gravitational-Wave Follow-up in the Third and Fourth Observing Runs: Strengths and Weaknesses of a Rapid Response Galaxy Targeted Strategy
Ido Keinan, Iair Arcavi, D. Andrew Howell +34
We present a summary of gravitational-wave (GW) follow-up using the Las Cumbres Observatory global network of telescopes during the third (O3) and fourth (O4) observing runs of the…
The shape of SN 1993J re-analyzed
H. F. Stevance, D. Baade, J. R. Bruten +8
SN 1993J is one of the best studied Type IIb supernovae. Spectropolarimetric data analyses were published over two decades ago at a time when the field of supernova spectropolarime…
The Carnegie Supernova Project II. Early observations and progenitor constraints of the Type Ib supernova LSQ13abf
M. D. Stritzinger, F. Taddia, S. Holmbo +19
Supernova LSQ13abf was discovered soon after explosion by the La Silla-QUEST Survey and followed by the CSP II at optical and near-IR wavelengths. Our analysis indicates LSQ13abf w…
Discovery and Rapid Follow-up Observations of the Unusual Type II SN 2018ivc in NGC 1068
K. A. Bostroem, S. Valenti, D. J. Sand +44
We present the discovery and high-cadence follow-up observations of SN 2018ivc, an unusual Type II supernova that exploded in NGC 1068 (D=10.1 Mpc). The light curve of SN 2018ivc d…
A Wolf-Rayet-like progenitor of supernova SN 2013cu from spectral observations of a wind
Avishay Gal-Yam, I. Arcavi, E. O. Ofek +17
The explosive fate of massive stripped Wolf-Rayet (W-R) stars is a key open question in stellar physics. An appealing option is that hydrogen-deficient W-R stars are the progenitor…
Analytical Light Curve Models of Super-Luminous Supernovae: chi^2-Minimizations of Parameter Fits
E. Chatzopoulos, J. C. Wheeler, J. Vinko +2
We present fits of generalized semi-analytic supernova (SN) light curve (LC) models for a variety of power inputs including Ni-56 and Co-56 radioactive decay, magnetar spin-down, a…
