New Pulse Timing Measurements of the sdBV Star CS 1246

Zackary L. Hutchens, Brad N. Barlow, Alan Vasquez Soto +5

CS 1246 is a hot subdwarf B star discovered in 2009 to exhibit a single, large-amplitude radial pulsation. An O-C diagram constructed from this mode revealed reflex motion due to t…

The early detection and follow-up of the highly obscured Type II supernova 2016ija/DLT16am

L. Tartaglia, D. J. Sand, S. Valenti +45

We present our analysis of the Type II supernova DLT16am (SN~2016ija). The object was discovered during the ongoing (DLT40) one day cadence supernova search a…

IGR J19552+0044: A new asynchronous short period polar: "Filling the gap between intermediate and ordinary polars"

G. Tovmassian, D. Gonzalez-Buitrago, J. Thorstensen +23

Based on XMM--Newton X-ray observations IGR J19552+0044 appears to be either a pre-polar or an asynchronous polar. We conducted follow-up optical observations to identify the sourc…

An empirical limit on the kilonova rate from the DLT40 one day cadence Supernova Survey

Sheng Yang, Stefano Valenti, Enrico Cappellaro +6

Binary neutron star mergers are important to understand stellar evolution, the chemical enrichment of the universe via the r-process, the physics of short gamma-ray bursts, gravita…
