Flash Spectroscopy: Emission Lines from the Ionized Circumstellar Material around -Day-Old Type II Supernovae

D. Khazov, O. Yaron, A. Gal-Yam +24

Supernovae (SNe) embedded in dense circumstellar material (CSM) may show prominent emission lines in their early-time spectra ( days after the explosion), owing to recombi…

Radio observations of a sample of broad-lined type Ic supernovae discovered by PTF/iPTF: A search for relativistic explosions

A. Corsi, A. Gal-Yam, S. R. Kulkarni +15

Long duration gamma-ray bursts are a rare subclass of stripped-envelope core-collapse supernovae that launch collimated relativistic outflows (jets). All gamma-ray-burst-associated…

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…

Happy Birthday Swift: Ultra-long GRB141121A and its broad-band Afterglow

A. Cucchiara, P. Veres, A. Corsi +27

We present our extensive observational campaign on the Swift-discovered GRB141121A, al- most ten years after its launch. Our observations covers radio through X-rays, and extends f…

Late time multi wavelength observations of Swift J1644+5734: A luminous optical/IR bump and quiescent X-ray emission

A. J. Levan, N. R. Tanvir, G. C. Brown +10

We present late-time multi-wavelength observations of Swift J1644+57, suggested to be a relativistic tidal disruption flare (TDF). Our observations extend to >4 years from discover…

Optical and near-infrared observations of SN 2013dx associated with GRB 130702A

V. L. Toy, S. B. Cenko, J. M. Silverman +33

We present optical and near-infrared light curves and optical spectra of SN 2013dx, associated with the nearby (redshift 0.145) gamma-ray burst GRB 130702A. The prompt isotropic ga…
