Cataclysmic Variables in the First Year of the Zwicky Transient Facility
Paula Szkody, Brooke Dicenzo, Anna Y. Q. Ho +25
Using selection criteria based on amplitude, time and color, we have identified 329 objects as known or candidate cataclysmic variable (CVs) during the first year of testing and op…
Berkeley Supernova Ia Program: Data Release of 637 Spectra from 247 Type Ia Supernovae
Benjamin E. Stahl, WeiKang Zheng, Thomas de Jaeger +18
We present 637 low-redshift optical spectra collected by the Berkeley Supernova Ia Program (BSNIP) between 2009 and 2018, almost entirely with the Kast double spectrograph on the S…
The Berkeley Sample of Stripped-Envelope Supernovae
Isaac Shivvers, Alexei V. Filippenko, Jeffrey M. Silverman +22
We present the complete sample of stripped-envelope supernova (SN) spectra observed by the Lick Observatory Supernova Search (LOSS) collaboration over the last three decades: 888 s…
Stripped-envelope supernova SN 2004dk is now interacting with hydrogen-rich circumstellar material
Jon C. Mauerhan, Alexei V. Filippenko, Weikang Zheng +4
The dominant mechanism and time scales over which stripped-envelope supernovae (SNe) progenitor stars shed their hydrogen envelopes are uncertain. Observations of Type Ib and Ic SN…
SN2012ab: A Peculiar Type IIn Supernova with Aspherical Circumstellar Material
Christopher Bilinski, Nathan Smith, G. Grant Williams +18
We present photometry, spectra, and spectropolarimetry of supernova (SN) 2012ab, mostly obtained over the course of days after discovery. SN 2012ab was a Type IIn (SN II…
Massive-Star Mergers and the Recent Transient in NGC4490: A More Massive Cousin of V838 Mon and V1309 Sco
Nathan Smith, Jennifer E. Andrews, Schuyler D. Van Dyk +11
The Galactic transient V1309 Sco was the result of a merger in a low-mass star system, while V838 Mon was thought to be a similar merger event from a more massive B-type progenitor…
