Prospects for Multimessenger Observations of Thorne-Żytkow Objects
Lindsay DeMarchi, J. R. Sanders, Emily M. Levesque
Thorne-Żytkow objects (TŻOs) are a class of stellar object comprised of a neutron star core surrounded by a large and diffuse envelope. Their exterior appearance is identical to re…
The First Candidate Colliding-Wind Binary in M33
Kristen Garofali, Emily M. Levesque, Philip Massey +1
We present the detection of the first candidate colliding-wind binary (CWB) in M33, located in the giant H II region NGC 604. The source was first identified in archival {\it Chand…
Multi-Messenger Astronomy with Extremely Large Telescopes
Ryan Chornock, Philip S. Cowperthwaite, Raffaella Margutti +82
The field of time-domain astrophysics has entered the era of Multi-messenger Astronomy (MMA). One key science goal for the next decade (and beyond) will be to characterize gravitat…
A Spatially Resolved Study of the GRB 020903 Host Galaxy
Mallory Thorp, Emily Levesque
GRB 020903 is a long-duration gamma ray burst (LGRB) with a host galaxy close enough and extended enough for spatially-resolved observations, making it one of less than a dozen GRB…
SPIRITS: Uncovering Unusual Infrared Transients With Spitzer
Mansi M. Kasliwal, John Bally, Frank Masci +44
We present an ongoing, systematic search for extragalactic infrared transients, dubbed SPIRITS --- SPitzer InfraRed Intensive Transients Survey. In the first year, using Spitzer/IR…
Resolved Host Studies of Stellar Explosions
Emily M. Levesque
The host galaxies of nearby (z<0.3) core-collapse supernovae and long-duration gamma-ray bursts offer an excellent means of probing the environments and populations that produce th…
