Type II supernova energetics and comparison of light curves to shock-cooling models
Adam Rubin, Avishay Gal-Yam, Annalisa De Cia +37
During the first few days after explosion, Type II supernovae (SNe) are dominated by relatively simple physics. Theoretical predictions regarding early-time SN light curves in the…
Calcium-Rich Gap Transients: Tidal Detonations of White Dwarfs?
P. H. Sell, T. J. Maccarone, R. Kotak +2
We hypothesize that at least some of the recently discovered class of calcium-rich gap transients are tidal detonation events of white dwarfs (WDs) by black holes (BHs) or possibly…
1FGL J1417.7-4407: A likely gamma-ray bright binary with a massive neutron star and a giant secondary
Jay Strader, Laura Chomiuk, C. C. Cheung +12
We present multiwavelength observations of the persistent Fermi-LAT unidentified gamma-ray source 1FGL J1417.7-4407, showing it is likely to be associated with a newly discovered X…
Supernova 2013by: A Type IIL Supernova with a IIP-like light curve drop
S. Valenti, D. Sand, M. Stritzinger +11
We present multi-band ultraviolet and optical light curves, as well as visual-wavelength and near-infrared spectroscopy of the Type II linear (IIL) supernova (SN) 2013by. We show t…
