Discovery of a peculiar Cepheid-like star towards the northern edge of the Small Magellanic Cloud
J. B. Marquette, P. Tisserand, P. Francois +37
For seven years, the EROS-2 project obtained a mass of photometric data on variable stars. We present a peculiar Cepheid-like star, in the direction of the Small Magellanic Cloud,…
Optical and Infrared Spectroscopy of SN 1999ee and SN 1999ex
Mario Hamuy, Jose Maza, Philip A. Pinto +17
We report optical and infrared spectroscopic observations of the Type Ia SN 1999ee and the Type Ib/c SN 1999ex, both of which were hosted by the galaxy IC 5179. For SN 1999ee we ob…
The X-ray, Optical and Infrared Counterpart to GRB 980703
P. M. Vreeswijk, T. J. Galama, A. Owens +36
We report on X-ray, optical and infrared follow-up observations of GRB 980703. We detect a previously unknown X-ray source in the GRB error box; assuming a power law decline we fin…
POX 186: the ultracompact Blue Compact Dwarf Galaxy reveals its nature
V. Doublier, D. Kunth, F. Courbin +1
High resolution, ground based R and I band observations of the ultra compact dwarf galaxy POX 186 are presented. The data, obtained with the ESO New Technology Telescope (NTT), are…
Discovery of the peculiar supernova 1998bw in the error box of GRB980425
T. J. Galama, P. M. Vreeswijk, J. van Paradijs +42
The discovery of X-ray, optical and radio afterglows of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and the measurements of the distances to some of them have established that these events come from G…
A `Hypernova' model for SN 1998bw associated with gamma-ray burst of 25 April 1998
K. Iwamoto, P. A. Mazzali, K. Nomoto +24
The discovery of the peculiar supernova (SN) 1998bw and its possible association with the gamma-ray burst (GRB) 980425 provide new clues to the understanding of the explo…
