Rubin ToO 2024: Envisioning the Vera C. Rubin Observatory LSST Target of Opportunity program
Igor Andreoni, Raffaella Margutti, John Banovetz +86
The Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) at Vera C. Rubin Observatory is planned to begin in the Fall of 2025. The LSST survey cadence has been designed via a community-driven pr…
Detecting electromagnetic counterparts to LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA gravitational wave events with DECam: Neutron Star Mergers
Keerthi Kunnumkai, Antonella Palmese, Amanda M Farah +7
With GW170817 being the only multimessenger gravitational wave (GW) event with an associated kilonova detected so far, there exists a pressing need for realistic estimation of the…
Preferential Occurrence of Fast Radio Bursts in Massive Star-Forming Galaxies
Kritti Sharma, Vikram Ravi, Liam Connor +24
Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration events detected from beyond the Milky Way. FRB emission characteristics favor highly magnetized neutron stars, or magnetars, as th…
Optical and Radio Analysis of Systematically Classified Broad-lined Type Ic Supernovae from the Zwicky Transient Facility
Gokul P. Srinivasaragavan, Sheng Yang, Shreya Anand +35
We study a magnitude-limited sample of 36 Broad-lined Type Ic Supernovae (SNe Ic-BL) from the Zwicky Transient Facility Bright Transient Survey (detected between March 2018 and Aug…
An infrared census of R Coronae Borealis Stars II -- Spectroscopic classifications and implications for the rate of low-mass white dwarf mergers
Viraj R. Karambelkar, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Patrick Tisserand +18
We present results from a systematic infrared (IR) census of R Coronae Borealis (RCB) stars in the Milky Way, using data from the Palomar Gattini IR (PGIR) survey. R Coronae Boreal…
Searching for gravitational wave optical counterparts with the Zwicky Transient Facility: summary of O4a
Tomás Ahumada, Shreya Anand, Michael W. Coughlin +49
During the first half of the fourth observing run (O4a) of the International Gravitational Wave Network (IGWN), the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) conducted a systematic search fo…
SN 2023zaw: an ultra-stripped, nickel-poor supernova from a low-mass progenitor
Kaustav K. Das, Christoffer Fremling, Mansi M. Kasliwal +34
We present SN 2023zaw a sub-luminous ( mag) and rapidly-evolving supernova ( days), with the lowest nickel mass (…
The Luminous, Slow-Rising Orphan Afterglow AT2019pim as a Candidate Moderately Relativistic Outflow
Daniel A. Perley, Anna Y. Q. Ho, Michael Fausnaugh +34
Classical gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have two distinct emission episodes: prompt emission from ultrarelativistic ejecta and afterglow from shocked circumstellar material. While both c…
