The first tidal disruption flare in ZTF: from photometric selection to multi-wavelength characterization
Sjoert van Velzen, Suvi Gezari, S. Bradley Cenko +37
We present Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) observations of the tidal disruption flare AT2018zr/PS18kh reported by Holoien et al. and detected during ZTF commissioning. The ZTF ligh…
The UV-bright, Slowly Declining Transient PS1-11af as a Partial Tidal Disruption Event
R. Chornock, E. Berger, S. Gezari +34
We present the Pan-STARRS1 discovery of the long-lived and blue transient PS1-11af, which was also detected by GALEX with coordinated observations in the near-ultraviolet (NUV) ban…
Evolution in the Volumetric Type Ia Supernova Rate from the Supernova Legacy Survey
K. Perrett, M. Sullivan, A. Conley +23
We present a measurement of the volumetric Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) rate (SNR_Ia) as a function of redshift for the first four years of data from the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescop…
The Dependence of Type Ia Supernova Luminosities on their Host Galaxies
M. Sullivan, A. Conley, D. A. Howell +22
(Abridged) Precision cosmology with Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) makes use of the fact that SN Ia luminosities depend on their light-curve shapes and colours. Using Supernova Legacy…
SN 2009kf : a UV bright type IIP supernova discovered with Pan-STARRS 1 and GALEX
M. T. Botticella, C. Trundle, A. Pastorello +43
We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of a luminous type IIP Supernova 2009kf discovered by the Pan-STARRS 1 (PS1) survey and detected also by GALEX. The SN shows a…
Probing Shock Breakout with Serendipitous GALEX Detections of Two SNLS Type II-P Supernovae
Suvi Gezari, Luc Dessart, Stephane Basa +13
We report the serendipitous detection by GALEX of fast (<1 day) rising (>1 mag) UV emission from two Type II plateau (II-P) supernovae (SNe) at z=0.185 and 0.324 discovered by the…
