A Type II Supernova Hubble diagram from the CSP-I, SDSS-II, and SNLS surveys

T. de Jaeger, S. González-Gaitán, M. Hamuy +15

The coming era of large photometric wide-field surveys will increase the detection rate of supernovae by orders of magnitude. Such numbers will restrict spectroscopic follow-up in…

Photometric properties of intermediate redshift Type Ia Supernovae observed by SDSS-II Supernova Survey

Naohiro Takanashi, Mamoru Doi, Naoki Yasuda +5

We have analyzed multi-band light curves of 328 intermediate redshift (0.05 <= z < 0.24) type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) observed by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II Supernova Survey (S…

MUSE Reveals a Recent Merger in the Post-starburst Host Galaxy of the TDE ASASSN-14li

J. L. Prieto, T. Krühler, J. P. Anderson +13

We present MUSE integral field spectroscopic observations of the host galaxy (PGC 043234) of one of the closest (, Mpc) and best-studied tidal disruption eve…

The Superluminous Transient ASASSN-15lh as a Tidal Disruption Event from a Kerr Black Hole

G. Leloudas, M. Fraser, N. C. Stone +47

When a star passes within the tidal radius of a supermassive black hole, it will be torn apart. For a star with the mass of the Sun () and a non-spinning black hole with a…

Unresolved versus resolved: testing the validity of young simple stellar population models with VLT/MUSE observations of NGC 3603

H. Kuncarayakti, L. Galbany, J. P. Anderson +2

CONTEXT. Stellar populations are the building blocks of galaxies including the Milky Way. The majority, if not all extragalactic studies are entangled with the use of stellar popul…

Disappearance of the Progenitor of Supernova iPTF13bvn

Gastón Folatelli, Schuyler D. Van Dyk, Hanindyo Kuncarayakti +13

Supernova (SN) iPTF13bvn in NGC 5806 was the first Type Ib SN to have been tentatively associated with a progenitor candidate in pre-explosion images. We performed deep ultraviolet…
