Direct evidence for a supernova interacting with a large amount of hydrogen-free circumstellar material
Sagi Ben-Ami, Avishay Gal-Yam, Paolo A. Mazzali +16
We present our observations of SN 2010mb, a Type Ic SN lacking spectroscopic signatures of H and He. SN 2010mb has a slowly-declining light curve (days) that cannot be p…
Discovery and redshift of an optical afterglow in 71 square degrees: iPTF13bxl and GRB 130702A
Leo P. Singer, S. Bradley Cenko, Mansi M. Kasliwal +20
We report the discovery of the optical afterglow of the gamma-ray burst (GRB) 130702A, identified upon searching 71 square degrees surrounding the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GB…
The Afterglow of GRB 130427A from 1 to 10^16 GHz
D. A. Perley, S. B. Cenko, A. Corsi +31
We present multiwavelength observations of the afterglow of GRB 130427A, the brightest (in total fluence) gamma-ray burst of the past 29 years. Optical spectroscopy from Gemini-Nor…
A multi-wavelength investigation of the radio-loud supernova PTF11qcj and its circumstellar environment
A. Corsi, E. O. Ofek, A. Gal-Yam +20
We present the discovery, classification, and extensive panchromatic (from radio to X-ray) follow-up observations of PTF11qcj, a supernova discovered by the Palomar Transient Facto…
Discovery, Progenitor & Early Evolution of a Stripped Envelope Supernova iPTF13bvn
Yi Cao, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Iair Arcavi +24
The intermediate Palomar Transient Factory reports our discovery of a young supernova, iPTF13bvn, in the nearby galaxy, NGC5806 (22.5Mpc). Our spectral sequence in the optical and…
PTF12gzk - A Rapidly Declining, High-Velocity Type Ic Radio Supernova
Assaf Horesh, Shrinivas R. Kulkarni, Alessandra Corsi +8
Only a few cases of type Ic supernovae (SNe) with high-velocity ejecta have been discovered and studied. Here we present our analysis of radio and X-ray observations of a Type Ic S…
