M31N 2007-11d: A Slowly-Rising, Luminous Nova in M31
A. W. Shafter, A. Rau, R. M. Quimby +4
We report a series of extensive photometric and spectroscopic observations of the luminous M31 nova M31N 2007-11d. Our photometric observations coupled with previous measurements s…
The type IIb SN 2008ax: spectral and light curve evolution
A. Pastorello, M. M. Kasliwal, R. M. Crockett +12
We present spectroscopy and photometry of the He-rich supernova (SN) 2008ax. The early-time spectra show prominent P-Cygni H lines, which decrease with time and disappear completel…
The type IIb SN 2008ax: the nature of the progenitor
R. M. Crockett, J. J. Eldridge, S. J. Smartt +9
A source coincident with the position of the type IIb supernova (SN) 2008ax is identified in pre-explosion Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 observations i…
GRB070610 : A Curious Galactic Transient
M. M. Kasliwal, S. B. Cenko, S. R. Kulkarni +23
GRB 070610 is a typical high-energy event with a duration of 5s.Yet within the burst localization we detect a highly unusual X-ray and optical transient, SwiftJ195509.6+261406. We…
The Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS): a large-scale structure at z=0.73 and the relation of galaxy morphologies to local environment
L. Guzzo, P. Cassata, A. Finoguenov +29
We have identified a large-scale structure at z~0.73 in the COSMOS field, coherently described by the distribution of galaxy photometric redshifts, an ACS weak-lensing convergence…
SN 2006gy: An extremely luminous supernova in the galaxy NGC 1260
E. O. Ofek, P. B. Cameron, M. M. Kasliwal +8
With an extinction-corrected V-band peak absolute magnitude of about -22, supernova (SN) 2006gy is probably the brightest SN ever observed. We report on multi-wavelength observatio…
