Strong Near-Infrared Carbon Absorption in the Transitional Type Ia SN 2015bp
S. D. Wyatt, D. J. Sand, E. Y. Hsiao +20
Unburned carbon is potentially a powerful probe of Type Ia supernova (SN) explosion mechanisms. We present comprehensive optical and near-infrared (NIR) data on the "transitional"…
The Zwicky Transient Facility Bright Transient Survey. II. A Public Statistical Sample for Exploring Supernova Demographics
Daniel A. Perley, Christoffer Fremling, Jesper Sollerman +34
We present a public catalog of transients from the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) Bright Transient Survey (BTS), a magnitude-limited (m<19 mag in either the g or r filter) survey…
Bright, months-long stellar outbursts announce the explosion of interaction-powered supernovae
Nora L. Strotjohann, Eran O. Ofek, Avishay Gal-Yam +53
Interaction-powered supernovae (SNe) explode within an optically-thick circumstellar medium (CSM) that could be ejected during eruptive events. To identify and characterize such pr…
SN 2020bqj: a Type Ibn supernova with a long lasting peak plateau
E. C. Kool, E. Karamehmetoglu, J. Sollerman +31
Context: Type Ibn supernovae are a rare class of stripped envelope supernovae interacting with a helium-rich CSM. The majority of the SNe Ibn reported display a surprising homogene…
Kilonova Luminosity Function Constraints based on Zwicky Transient Facility Searches for 13 Neutron Star Mergers
Mansi M. Kasliwal, Shreya Anand, Tomas Ahumada +100
We present a systematic search for optical counterparts to 13 gravitational wave (GW) triggers involving at least one neutron star during LIGO/Virgo's third observing run. We searc…
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…
