Optimizing the LSST Observing Strategy for Dark Energy Science: DESC Recommendations for the Wide-Fast-Deep Survey

Michelle Lochner, Daniel M. Scolnic, Humna Awan +33

Cosmology is one of the four science pillars of LSST, which promises to be transformative for our understanding of dark energy and dark matter. The LSST Dark Energy Science Collabo…

Delayed Circumstellar Interaction for Type Ia SN 2015cp Revealed by an HST Ultraviolet Imaging Survey

M. L. Graham, C. E. Harris, P. E. Nugent +11

The nature and role of the binary companion of carbon-oxygen white dwarf stars that explode as Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are not yet fully understood. Past detections of circumst…

Presto-Color: A Photometric Survey Cadence for Explosive Physics & Fast Transients

Federica B. Bianco, Maria R. Drout, Melissa L. Graham +6

We identify minimal observing cadence requirements that enable photometric astronomical surveys to detect and recognize fast and explosive transients and fast transient features. O…

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…

Oxygen and helium in stripped-envelope supernovae

C. Fremling, J. Sollerman, M. M. Kasliwal +23

We present an analysis of 507 spectra of 173 stripped-envelope (SE) supernovae (SNe) discovered by the untargeted Palomar Transient Factory (PTF) and intermediate PTF (iPTF) survey…

Significant Luminosity Differences of Two Twin Type Ia Supernovae

Ryan J. Foley, Samantha L. Hoffmann, Lucas M. Macri +5

The Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) 2011by, hosted in NGC 3972, and 2011fe, hosted in M101, are optical "twins," having almost identical optical light-curve shapes, colours, and near-m…
