High Amplitude δ-Scutis in the Large Magellanic Cloud

A. Garg, K. H. Cook, S. Nikolaev +13

We present 2323 High-Amplitude δ-Scuti (HADS) candidates discovered in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) by the SuperMACHO survey (Rest et al. 2005). Frequency analyses of these can…

Pushing the Boundaries of Conventional Core-Collapse Supernovae: The Extremely Energetic Supernova SN 2003ma

A. Rest, R. J. Foley, S. Gezari +34

We report the discovery of a supernova (SN) with the highest apparent energy output to date and conclude that it represents an extreme example of the Type IIn subclass. The SN, whi…

Lower bounds on photometric redshift errors from Type Ia supernovae templates

S. Asztalos, S. Nikolaev, W. de Vries +3

Cosmology with Type Ia supernovae heretofore has required extensive spectroscopic follow-up to establish a redshift. Though tolerable at the present discovery rate, the next genera…

Spectral Identification of an Ancient Supernova using Light Echoes in the LMC

A. Rest, T. Matheson, S. Blondin +26

We report the successful identification of the type of the supernova responsible for the supernova remnant SNR 0509-675 in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) using Gemini spectra of…

Testing LMC Microlensing Scenarios: The Discrimination Power of the SuperMACHO Microlensing Survey

A. Rest, C. Stubbs, A. C. Becker +18

Characterizing the nature and spatial distribution of the lensing objects that produce the previously measured microlensing optical depth toward the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) re…

Further empirical evidence for the non-linearity of the period-luminosity relations as seen in the Large Magellanic Cloud Cepheids

C. Ngeow, S. Kanbur, S. Nikolaev +3

(abridged) Recent studies, using OGLE data for LMC Cepheids in the optical, strongly suggest that the period-luminosity (PL) relation for the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) Cepheids…
