MITS: the Multi-Imaging Transient Spectrograph for SOXS
Adam Rubin, Sagi Ben-Ami, Ofir Hershko +45
The Son Of X-Shooter (SOXS) is a medium resolution spectrograph R~4500 proposed for the ESO 3.6 m NTT. We present the optical design of the UV-VIS arm of SOXS which employs high ef…
Post conjunction detection of Pictoris b with VLT/SPHERE
A. -M. Lagrange, A. Boccaletti, M. Langlois +102
With an orbital distance comparable to that of Saturn in the solar system, \bpic b is the closest (semi-major axis \,9\,au) exoplanet that has been imaged to orbit a star.…
Optical photometry and spectroscopy of the low-luminosity, broad-lined Ic supernova iPTF15dld
E. Pian, L. Tomasella, E. Cappellaro +37
Core-collapse stripped-envelope supernova (SN) explosions reflect the diversity of physical parameters and evolutionary paths of their massive star progenitors. We have observed th…
First light of the VLT planet finder SPHERE. IV. Physical and chemical properties of the planets around HR8799
M. Bonnefoy, A. Zurlo, J. L. Baudino +63
The system of four planets around HR8799 offers a unique opportunity to probe the physics and chemistry at play in the atmospheres of self-luminous young (~30 Myr) planets. We rece…
Death rate of massive stars at redshift ~0.3
E. Cappellaro, M. Riello, G. Altavilla +10
We report the first result of a supernova search program designed to measure the evolution of the supernova rate with redshift. To make the comparison with local rates more signifi…
The metamorphosis of SN1998bw
Ferdinando Patat, Enrico Cappellaro, John Danziger +23
We present and discuss the photometric and spectroscopic evolution of the peculiar SN1998bw, associated with GRB980425, through an analysis of optical and near IR data collected at…
