iPTF Survey for Cool Transients

S. M. Adams, N. Blagorodnova, M. M. Kasliwal +25

We performed a wide-area (2000 deg) g and I band experiment as part of a two month extension to the Intermediate Palomar Transient Factory. We discovered 36 extragalactic tra…

Illuminating Gravitational Waves: A Concordant Picture of Photons from a Neutron Star Merger

M. M. Kasliwal, E. Nakar, L. P. Singer +78

Merging neutron stars offer an exquisite laboratory for simultaneously studying strong-field gravity and matter in extreme environments. We establish the physical association of an…

Census of the Local Universe (CLU) Narrow-Band Survey I: Galaxy Catalogs from Preliminary Fields

David O. Cook, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Angela Van Sistine +13

We present the Census of the Local Universe (CLU) narrow-band survey to search for emission-line (\ha) galaxies. CLU-\ha~has imaged 3 of the sky (26,470~deg) with 4…

The Young Star Cluster population of M51 with LEGUS: I. A comprehensive study of cluster formation and evolution

M. Messa, A. Adamo, G. Östlin +34

Recently acquired WFC3 UV (F275W and F336W) imaging mosaics under the Legacy Extragalactic UV Survey (LEGUS) combined with archival ACS data of M51 are used to study the young star…

Hierarchical Star Formation in Turbulent Media: Evidence from Young Star Clusters

K. Grasha, B. G. Elmegreen, D. Calzetti +16

We present an analysis of the positions and ages of young star clusters in eight local galaxies to investigate the connection between the age difference and separation of cluster p…

Effective Radii of Young, Massive Star Clusters in Two LEGUS Galaxies

J. E. Ryon, J. S. Gallagher, L. J. Smith +15

We present a study of the effective (half-light) radii and other structural properties of a systematically selected sample of young, massive star clusters (YMCs, $5\times10^3…
