iPTF13beo: The Double-Peaked Light Curve of a Type Ibn Supernova Discovered Shortly after Explosion
Evgeny Gorbikov, Avishay Gal-Yam, Eran O. Ofek +13
We present optical photometric and spectroscopic observations of the Type Ibn (SN 2006jc-like) supernova iPTF13beo. Detected by the intermediate Palomar Transient Factory ~3 hours…
The Host Galaxies of Type Ia Supernovae Discovered by the Palomar Transient Factory
Y. -C. Pan, M. Sullivan, K. Maguire +16
We present spectroscopic observations of the host galaxies of 82 low-redshift type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) discovered by the Palomar Transient Factory (PTF). We determine star-forma…
The Very Young Type Ia Supernova 2013dy: Discovery, and Strong Carbon Absorption in Early-Time Spectra
WeiKang Zheng, Jeffrey M. Silverman, Alexei V. Filippenko +20
The Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2013dy in NGC 7250 (d ~ 13.7 Mpc) was discovered by the Lick Observatory Supernova Search. Combined with a prediscovery detection by the Italian Super…
Discovery and redshift of an optical afterglow in 71 square degrees: iPTF13bxl and GRB 130702A
Leo P. Singer, S. Bradley Cenko, Mansi M. Kasliwal +20
We report the discovery of the optical afterglow of the gamma-ray burst (GRB) 130702A, identified upon searching 71 square degrees surrounding the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GB…
The Afterglow of GRB 130427A from 1 to 10^16 GHz
D. A. Perley, S. B. Cenko, A. Corsi +31
We present multiwavelength observations of the afterglow of GRB 130427A, the brightest (in total fluence) gamma-ray burst of the past 29 years. Optical spectroscopy from Gemini-Nor…
PTF12gzk - A Rapidly Declining, High-Velocity Type Ic Radio Supernova
Assaf Horesh, Shrinivas R. Kulkarni, Alessandra Corsi +8
Only a few cases of type Ic supernovae (SNe) with high-velocity ejecta have been discovered and studied. Here we present our analysis of radio and X-ray observations of a Type Ic S…
