Optical and Near-Infrared Observations of the Peculiar Type Ia Supernova 1999ac

Mark M. Phillips, Kevin Krisciunas, Nicholas B. Suntzeff +29

We present 39 nights of optical photometry, 34 nights of infrared photometry, and 4 nights of optical spectroscopy of the Type Ia SN 1999ac. This supernova was discovered two weeks…

SN 2005bf: A Possible Transition Event Between Type Ib/c Supernovae and Gamma Ray Bursts

Gaston Folatelli, Carlos Contreras, M. M. Phillips +22

We present u'g'r'i'BV photometry and optical spectroscopy of the Type Ib/Ic SN 2005bf covering the first ~100 days following discovery. The u'g'BV light curves displayed a double-p…

Evidence for an asymptotic giant branch star in the progenitor system of a type Ia supernova

Mario Hamuy, M. M. Phillips, Nicholas B. Suntzeff +8

A type Ia supernova (SN Ia), one of the two main classes of exploding stars, is recognized by the absence of hydrogen and the presence of elements such as silicon and sulphur in it…

A star-forming galaxy at z=5.78 in the Chandra Deep Field South

Andrew J. Bunker, Elizabeth R. Stanway, Richard S. Ellis +2

We report the discovery of a luminous z=5.78 star-forming galaxy in the Chandra Deep Field South. This galaxy was selected as an `i-drop' from the GOODS public survey imaging with…

The Las Campanas Infrared Survey. III. The H-band Imaging Survey and the Near-Infrared and Optical Photometric Catalogs

Hsiao-Wen Chen, P. J. McCarthy, R. O. Marzke +16

(Abridged) The Las Campanas Infrared Survey, based on broad-band optical and near-infrared photometry, is designed to robustly identify a statistically significant and representati…
