Two New Calcium-Rich Gap Transients in Group and Cluster Environments
R. Lunnan, M. M. Kasliwal, Y. Cao +20
We present the Palomar Transient Factory discoveries and the photometric and spectroscopic observations of PTF11kmb and PTF12bho. We show that both transients have properties consi…
Far-Ultraviolet to Near-Infrared Spectroscopy of A Nearby Hydrogen Poor Superluminous Supernova Gaia16apd
Lin Yan, R. Quimby, A. Gal-Yam +8
We report the first maximum-light far-Ultraviolet to near-infrared spectra (1000A - 1.62um, rest) of a H-poor superluminous supernova, Gaia16apd. At z=0.1018, it is one of the clos…
iPTF16geu: A multiply imaged, gravitationally lensed type Ia supernova
A. Goobar, R. Amanullah, S. R. Kulkarni +31
We report the discovery of a multiply-imaged gravitationally lensed Type Ia supernova, iPTF16geu (SN 2016geu), at redshift . This phenomenon could be identified because th…
Radio follow-up of gravitational wave triggers during Advanced LIGO O1
N. T. Palliyaguru, A. Corsi, M. M. Kasliwal +8
We present radio follow-up observations carried out with the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array during the first observing run (O1) of the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-…
Rising from the Ashes: Mid-Infrared Re-Brightening of the Impostor SN 2010da in NGC 300
Ryan M. Lau, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Howard E. Bond +16
We present multi-epoch mid-infrared (IR) photometry and the optical discovery observations of the "impostor" supernova (SN) 2010da in NGC 300 using new and archival Spitzer Space T…
iPTF15dtg: a double-peaked Type Ic Supernova from a massive progenitor
F. Taddia, C. Fremling, J. Sollerman +9
Type Ic supernovae (SNe Ic) arise from the core-collapse of H (and He) poor stars, which could be either single WR stars or lower-mass stars stripped of their envelope by a compani…
