SN 2017gci: a nearby Type I Superluminous Supernova with a bumpy tail
Achille Fiore, Ting-Wan Chen, Anders Jerkstrand +26
We present and discuss the optical spectro-photometric observations of the nearby (z=0.087) Type I superluminous supernova (SLSN I) SN 2017gci, whose peak K-corrected absolute magn…
The First Data Release of CNIa0.02 -- A Complete Nearby (Redshift <0.02) Sample of Type Ia Supernova Light Curves
Ping Chen, Subo Dong, C. S. Kochanek +41
The CNIa0.02 project aims to collect a complete, nearby sample of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) light curves, and the SNe are volume-limited with host-galaxy redshifts z_host < 0.02.…
SN 2018gjx reveals that some SNe Ibn are SNe IIb exploding in dense circumstellar material
S. J. Prentice, K. Maguire, I. Boian +27
We present the data and analysis of SN 2018gjx, an unusual low-luminosity transient with three distinct spectroscopic phases. Phase I shows a hot blue spectrum with signatures of i…
SN 2017ivv: two years of evolution of a transitional Type II supernova
C. P. Gutiérrez, A. Pastorello, A. Jerkstrand +39
We present the photometric and spectroscopic evolution of the Type II supernova (SN II) SN 2017ivv (also known as ASASSN-17qp). Located in an extremely faint galaxy (M ma…
Observation of inverse Compton emission from a long -ray burst
V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +301
Long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) originate from ultra-relativistic jets launched from the collapsing cores of dying massive stars. They are characterised by an initial phase o…
PS15cey and PS17cke: prospective candidates from the Pan-STARRS Search for Kilonovae
Owen R. McBrien, Stephen J. Smartt, Mark E. Huber +22
Time domain astronomy was revolutionised with the discovery of the first kilonova, AT2017gfo, in August 2017 which was associated with the gravitational wave signal GW170817. Since…
