Zooming In on the Progenitors of Superluminous Supernovae With the HST
R. Lunnan, R. Chornock, E. Berger +25
We present Hubble Space Telescope (HST) rest-frame ultraviolet imaging of the host galaxies of 16 hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe), including 11 events from the Pan-S…
Observational Constraints on the Catastrophic Disruption Rate of Small Main Belt Asteroids
Larry Denneau, Robert Jedicke, Alan Fitzsimmons +15
We have calculated 90% confidence limits on the steady-state rate of catastrophic disruptions of main belt asteroids in terms of the absolute magnitude at which one catastrophic di…
Rapidly-Evolving and Luminous Transients from Pan-STARRS1
M. R. Drout, R. Chornock, A. M. Soderberg +33
In the past decade, several rapidly-evolving transients have been discovered whose timescales and luminosities are not easily explained by traditional supernovae (SN) models. The s…
Towards Characterization of the Type IIP Supernova Progenitor Population: a Statistical Sample of Light Curves from Pan-STARRS1
N. E. Sanders, A. M. Soderberg, S. Gezari +30
In recent years, wide-field sky surveys providing deep multi-band imaging have presented a new path for indirectly characterizing the progenitor populations of core-collapse supern…
Pre-outburst observations of Nova Del 2013 from Pan-STARRS 1
N. R. Deacon, D. W. Hoard, E. A. Magnier +9
Nova Delphini 2013 was identified on the 14th of August 2013 and eventually rose to be a naked eye object. We sought to study the behaviour of the object in the run-up to outburst…
