Optical Follow-Up Observations of PTF10qts, a Luminous Broad-Lined Type Ic Supernova Found by the Palomar Transient Factory

E. S. Walker, P. A. Mazzali, E. Pian +22

We present optical photometry and spectroscopy of the broad-lined Type Ic supernova (SNIc-BL) PTF10qts, which was discovered as part of the Palomar Transient Factory. The supernova…

A Missing-Link in the Supernova-GRB Connection: The Case of SN 2012ap

Sayan Chakraborti, Alicia Soderberg, Laura Chomiuk +50

Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) are characterized by ultra-relativistic outflows, while supernovae are generally characterized by non-relativistic ejecta. GRB afterglows decelerate rapidly…

Inverse Compton X-ray Emission from Supernovae with Compact Progenitors: Application to SN2011fe

R. Margutti, A. M. Soderberg, L. Chomiuk +35

We present a generalized analytic formalism for the inverse Compton X-ray emission from hydrogen-poor supernovae and apply this framework to SN2011fe using Swift-XRT, UVOT and Chan…
