On the Progenitor System of the Type Iax Supernova 2014dt in M61
Ryan J. Foley, Schuyler D. Van Dyk, Saurabh W. Jha +5
We present pre-explosion and post-explosion Hubble Space Telescope images of the Type Iax supernova (SN Iax) 2014dt in M61. After astrometrically aligning these images, we do not d…
Origins of Massive Field Stars in the Galactic Center: a Spectroscopic Study
Hui Dong, Jon Mauerhan, Mark R. Morris +2
Outside of the known star clusters in the Galactic Center, a large number of evolved massive stars have been detected; but their origins remain uncertain. We present a spectroscopi…
On the Nature of Type Ia-CSM Supernovae: Optical and Near-Infrared Spectra of SN 2012ca and SN 2013dn
Ori D. Fox, Jeffrey M. Silverman, Alexei V. Filippenko +17
A growing subset of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) show evidence for unexpected interaction with a dense circumstellar medium (SNe Ia-CSM). The precise nature of the progenitor, howev…
Early Emission from the Type IIn Supernova 1998S at High Resolution
Isaac Shivvers, Jose H. Groh, Jon C. Mauerhan +3
The well-studied Type IIn supernova (SN) 1998S is often dubbed the prototypical SN IIn, and it provides a unique opportunity to study its progenitor star from within as the SN ligh…
SN Hunt 248: a super-Eddington outburst from a massive cool hypergiant
Jon C. Mauerhan, Schuyler D. Van Dyk, Melissa L Graham +8
We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of SN Hunt 248, a new supernova (SN) impostor in NGC 5806, which began a multi-stage outburst in 2014 May. The initial '2014a'…
Chasing the Identification of ASCA Galactic Objects (ChIcAGO) - An X-ray Survey of Unidentified Sources in the Galactic Plane I: Source Sample and Initial Results
G. E. Anderson, B. M. Gaensler, D. L. Kaplan +18
We present the Chasing the Identification of ASCA Galactic Objects (ChIcAGO) survey, which is designed to identify the unknown X-ray sources discovered during the ASCA Galactic Pla…
