Early Multiwavelength Observations of AT 2026fgk: The Luminous Afterglow to Sub-luminous GRB 260310A, Identified Independently of a Gamma-ray Trigger

K. -R. Hinds, A. Y. Q. Ho, Y. Wagh +103

The origins of sub-luminous (\,erg\,s) gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) associated with broad-lined Type~Ic supernovae (Ic-BL SNe) are poorly u…

Probing a new subclass of llGRB-SN transients: Insights from EP250304a and its associated supernova

L. Cotter, A. Martin-Carrillo, R. A. J. Eyles-Ferris +62

With the advent of the Einstein Probe (EP) mission, we are entering a new era in the study of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), enabling the detection of faint, low-luminosity transients th…

SNe 2013K and 2013am: observed and physical properties of two slow, normal Type IIP events

L. Tomasella, E. Cappellaro, M. L. Pumo +28

We present one year of optical and near-infrared photometry and spectroscopy of the Type IIP SNe 2013K and 2013am. Both objects are affected by significant extinction, due to their…

The early detection and follow-up of the highly obscured Type II supernova 2016ija/DLT16am

L. Tartaglia, D. J. Sand, S. Valenti +45

We present our analysis of the Type II supernova DLT16am (SN~2016ija). The object was discovered during the ongoing (DLT40) one day cadence supernova search a…

The Foundation Supernova Survey: Motivation, Design, Implementation, and First Data Release

Ryan J. Foley, Daniel Scolnic, Armin Rest +25

The Foundation Supernova Survey aims to provide a large, high-fidelity, homogeneous, and precisely-calibrated low-redshift Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) sample for cosmology. The calib…

On the nature of Hydrogen-rich Superluminous Supernovae

C. Inserra, S. J. Smartt, E. E. E. Gall +33

We present two hydrogen-rich superluminous supernovae (SLSNe), namely SN2013hx and PS15br. These objects, together with SN2008es are the only SLSNe showing a distinct, broad Halpha…

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…

Hydrogen-Poor Superluminous Supernovae and Long-Duration Gamma-Ray Bursts Have Similar Host Galaxies

R. Lunnan, R. Chornock, E. Berger +27

We present optical spectroscopy and optical/near-IR photometry of 31 host galaxies of hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe), including 15 events from the Pan-STARRS1 Mediu…

The Unusually Luminous Extragalactic Nova SN 2010U

Ian Czekala, E. Berger, R. Chornock +10

We present observations of the unusual optical transient SN 2010U, including spectra taken 1.03 days to 15.3 days after maximum light that identify it as a fast and luminous Fe II…
