Interstellar-Medium Mapping in M82 Through Light Echoes Around Supernova 2014J
Yi Yang, Lifan Wang, Dietrich Baade +10
We present multiple-epoch measurements of the size and surface brightness of the light echoes from supernova (SN) 2014J in the nearby starburst galaxy M82. Hubble Space Telescope (…
Constraints on the Progenitor of SN 2016gkg From Its Shock-Cooling Light Curve
Iair Arcavi, Griffin Hosseinzadeh, Peter J. Brown +17
SN 2016gkg is a nearby Type IIb supernova discovered shortly after explosion. Like several other Type IIb events with early-time data, SN 2016gkg displays a double-peaked light cur…
Optical Sky Brightness and Transparency During the Winter Season at Dome A Antarctica From the Gattini-Allsky Camera
Yi Yang, Anna M. Moore, Kevin Krisciunas +21
The summit of the Antarctic plateau, Dome A, is proving to be an excellent site for optical, NIR, and THz astronomical observations. GATTINI was a wide-field camera installed on th…
Interpreting Flux from Broadband Photometry
Peter J. Brown, Alice Breeveld, Peter W. A. Roming +1
We discuss the transformation of observed photometry into flux for the creation of spectral energy distributions and the computation of bolometric luminosities. We do this in the c…
OGLE16aaa - a Signature of a Hungry Super Massive Black Hole
Łukasz Wyrzykowski, M. Zieliński, Z. Kostrzewa-Rutkowska +22
We present the discovery and first three months of follow-up observations of a currently on-going unusual transient detected by the OGLE-IV survey, located in the centre of a galax…
The Intermediate Luminosity Optical Transient SN 2010da: The Progenitor, Eruption and Aftermath of a Peculiar Supergiant High-mass X-ray Binary
V. Ashley Villar, Edo Berger, Ryan Chornock +7
We present optical spectroscopy, ultraviolet to infrared imaging and X-ray observations of the intermediate luminosity optical transient (ILOT) SN 2010da in NGC 300 (d=1.86 Mpc) sp…
