The Redshift Completeness of Local Galaxy Catalogs
S. R. Kulkarni, D. A. Perley, A. A. Miller
There is considerable interest in understanding the demographics of galaxies within the local universe (defined, for our purposes, as the volume within a radius of 200 Mpc or z<0.0…
iPTF16asu: A Luminous, Rapidly-Evolving, and High-Velocity Supernova
L. Whitesides, R. Lunnan, M. M. Kasliwal +23
Wide-field surveys are discovering a growing number of rare transients whose physical origin is not yet well understood. Here, we present optical and UV data and analysis of iPTF16…
Hydrogen-poor Superluminous Supernovae With Late-time H-alpha Emission: Three Events From the Intermediate Palomar Transient Factory
Lin Yan, R. Lunnan, D. Perley +20
We present observations of two new hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSN-I), iPTF15esb and iPTF16bad, showing late-time H-alpha emission with line luminosities of (1-3)e+41…
Color Me Intrigued: the Discovery of iPTF 16fnm, a Supernova 2002cx-like Object
A. A. Miller, M. M. Kasliwal, Y. Cao +13
Modern wide-field, optical time-domain surveys must solve a basic optimization problem: maximize the number of transient discoveries or minimize the follow-up needed for the new di…
iPTF16fnl: a faint and fast tidal disruption event in an E+A galaxy
N. Blagorodnova, S. Gezari, T. Hung +30
We present ground-based and \textit{Swift} observations of iPTF16fnl, a likely tidal disruption event (TDE) discovered by the intermediate Palomar Transient Factory (iPTF) survey a…
