Panchromatic Observations of SN 2011dh Point to a Compact Progenitor Star

Alicia M. Soderberg, R. Margutti, B. A. Zauderer +32

We report the discovery and detailed monitoring of X-ray emission associated with the Type IIb SN 2011dh using data from the Swift and Chandra satellites, placing it among the best…

The High-Metallicity Explosion Environment of the Relativistic Supernova 2009bb

E. M. Levesque, A. M. Soderberg, R. J. Foley +23

We investigate the environment of the nearby (d ~ 40Mpc) broad-lined Type Ic supernova SN 2009bb. This event was observed to produce a relativistic outflow likely powered by a cent…

A Relativistic Type Ibc Supernova Without a Detected Gamma-ray Burst

A. M. Soderberg, S. Chakraborti, G. Pignata +21

Long duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) mark the explosive death of some massive stars and are a rare sub-class of Type Ibc supernovae (SNe Ibc). They are distinguished by the produc…

Wide Field Hard X-ray Survey Telescope: ProtoEXIST1

J. Hong, J. E. Grindlay, N. Chammas +17

We report our progress on the development of pixellated imaging CZT detector arrays for our first-generation balloon-borne wide-field hard X-ray (20 - 600 keV) telescope, ProtoEXIS…

Detector and Telescope Development for ProtoEXIST and Fine Beam Measurements of Spectral Response of CZT Detectors

J. Hong, A. Copete, J. E. Grindlay +5

We outline our plan to develop ProtoEXIST, a balloon-borne prototype experiment for the Energetic X-ray Imaging Survey Telescope (EXIST) for the Black Hole Finder Probe. EXIST will…
