First Multimessenger Observations of a Neutron Star Merger

Raffaella Margutti, Ryan Chornock

We describe the first observations of the same celestial object with gravitational waves and light. * GW170817 was the first detection of a neutron star merger with gravitational w…

SuperRAENN: A Semi-supervised Supernova Photometric Classification Pipeline Trained on Pan-STARRS1 Medium Deep Survey Supernovae

V. Ashley Villar, Griffin Hosseinzadeh, Edo Berger +18

Automated classification of supernovae (SNe) based on optical photometric light curve information is essential in the upcoming era of wide-field time domain surveys, such as the Le…

Photometric Classification of 2315 Pan-STARRS1 Supernovae with Superphot

Griffin Hosseinzadeh, Frederick Dauphin, V. Ashley Villar +17

The classification of supernovae (SNe) and its impact on our understanding of the explosion physics and progenitors have traditionally been based on the presence or absence of cert…

Discovery of the optical afterglow and host galaxy of short GRB181123B at : Implications for Delay Time Distributions

K. Paterson, W. Fong, A. Nugent +19

We present the discovery of the optical afterglow and host galaxy of the {\it Swift} short-duration gamma-ray burst, GRB\,181123B. Observations with Gemini-North starting at $\appr…

An extremely energetic supernova from a very massive star in a dense medium

Matt Nicholl, Peter K. Blanchard, Edo Berger +14

The interaction of a supernova with a circumstellar medium (CSM) can dramatically increase the emitted luminosity by converting kinetic energy to thermal energy. In 'superluminous'…
