Short GRB Host Galaxies I: Photometric and Spectroscopic Catalogs, Host Associations, and Galactocentric Offsets
Wen-fai Fong, Anya E. Nugent, Yuxin Dong +25
We present a comprehensive optical and near-infrared census of the fields of 90 short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) discovered in 2005-2021, constituting all short GRBs for which host ga…
Short GRB Host Galaxies. II. A Legacy Sample of Redshifts, Stellar Population Properties, and Implications for their Neutron Star Merger Origins
Anya E. Nugent, Wen-fai Fong, Yuxin Dong +14
We present the stellar population properties of 69 short gamma-ray burst (GRB) host galaxies, representing the largest uniformly-modeled sample to-date. Using the Prospector stella…
A Kilonova Following a Long-Duration Gamma-Ray Burst at 350 Mpc
J. C. Rastinejad, B. P. Gompertz, A. J. Levan +32
Here, we report the discovery of a kilonova associated with the nearby (350 Mpc) minute-duration GRB 211211A. In tandem with deep optical limits that rule out the presence of an ac…
Probing Kilonova Ejecta Properties Using a Catalog of Short Gamma-Ray Burst Observations
J. C. Rastinejad, W. Fong, C. D. Kilpatrick +11
The discovery of GW170817 and GRB 170817A in tandem with AT 2017gfo cemented the connection between neutron star mergers, short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), and kilonovae. To investiga…
Discovery of the optical afterglow and host galaxy of short GRB181123B at : Implications for Delay Time Distributions
K. Paterson, W. Fong, A. Nugent +19
We present the discovery of the optical afterglow and host galaxy of the {\it Swift} short-duration gamma-ray burst, GRB\,181123B. Observations with Gemini-North starting at $\appr…
Berkeley Supernova Ia Program: Data Release of 637 Spectra from 247 Type Ia Supernovae
Benjamin E. Stahl, WeiKang Zheng, Thomas de Jaeger +18
We present 637 low-redshift optical spectra collected by the Berkeley Supernova Ia Program (BSNIP) between 2009 and 2018, almost entirely with the Kast double spectrograph on the S…
