Preliminary Results from the Caltech Core-Collapse Project (CCCP)
Avishay Gal-Yam, S. B. Cenko, D. B. Fox +4
We present preliminary results from the Caltech Core-Collapse Project (CCCP), a large observational program focused on the study of core-collapse SNe. Uniform, high-quality NIR and…
[Fe II] and H2 filaments in the Supernova Remnant G11.2-0.3: Supernova Ejecta and Presupernova Circumstellar Wind
Bon-Chul Koo, Dae-Sik Moon, Ho-Gyu Lee +2
We present the results of near-infrared imaging and spectroscopic observations of the young, core-collapse supernova remnant (SNR) G11.2-0.3. In the [Fe II] 1.644 um image, we firs…
The Automated Palomar 60-Inch Telescope
S. Bradley Cenko, Derek B. Fox, Dae-Sik Moon +13
We have converted the Palomar 60-inch telescope (P60) from a classical night assistant-operated telescope to a fully robotic facility. The automated system, which has been operatio…
Multi-Wavelength Observations of GRB 050820A: An Exceptionally Energetic Event Followed from Start to Finish
S. B. Cenko, M. Kasliwal, F. A. Harrison +25
We present observations of the unusually bright and long gamma-ray burst GRB 050820A, one of the best-sampled broadband data sets in the Swift era. The gamma-ray light curve is mar…
On the progenitor of SN 2005gl and the nature of Type IIn supernovae
Avishay Gal-Yam, D. C. Leonard, D. B. Fox +8
We present a study of the type IIn supernova (SN) 2005gl, in the relatively nearby (d~66 Mpc) galaxy NGC 266. Photometry and spectroscopy of the SN indicate it is a typical member…
