Optical and near-infrared photometry of 94 type II supernovae from the Carnegie Supernova Project
J. P. Anderson, C. Contreras, M. D. Stritzinger +43
Type II supernovae (SNeII) mark the endpoint in the lives of hydrogen-rich massive stars. Their large explosion energies and luminosities allow us to measure distances, metalliciti…
A puzzle solved after two decades: SN 2002gh among the brightest of superluminous supernovae
Régis Cartier, Mario Hamuy, Carlos Contreras +9
We present optical photometry and spectroscopy of the superluminous SN 2002gh from maximum light to days, obtained as part of the Carnegie Type II Supernova (CATS) project.…
Strategic Scientific Plan for Gemini Observatory
J. P. Blakeslee, A. Adamson, C. Davis +30
We present the Strategic Scientific Plan (SSP) for the direction and activities of the Gemini Observatory in the 2020s. The overarching goal is to ensure that Gemini best uses the…
Infrastructure and Strategies for Time Domain and MMA and Follow-Up
B. W. Miller, L. Allen, E. Bellm +28
Time domain and multi-messenger astrophysics are growing and important modes of observational astronomy that will help define astrophysics in the 2020s. Significant effort is being…
Hayabusa-2 Mission Target Asteroid 162173 Ryugu (1999 JU3): Searching for the Object's Spin-Axis Orientation
T. G. Müller, J. Ďurech, M. Ishiguro +27
The JAXA Hayabusa-2 mission was approved in 2010 and launched on December 3, 2014. The spacecraft will arrive at the near-Earth asteroid 162173 Ryugu in 2018 where it will perform…
UBVRIz Light Curves of 51 Type II Supernovae
Lluís Galbany, Mario Hamuy, Mark M. Phillips +34
We present a compilation of UBV RIz light curves of 51 type II supernovae discovered during the course of four different surveys during 1986 to 2003: the Cerro Tololo Supernova Sur…
