A First Transients Survey with JWST: the FLARE project

Lifan Wang, D. Baade, E. Baron +43

JWST was conceived and built to answer one of the most fundamental questions that humans can address empirically: "How did the Universe make its first stars?". Our First Lights At…

Energetic eruptions leading to a peculiar hydrogen-rich explosion of a massive star

Iair Arcavi, D. Andrew Howell, Daniel Kasen +50

Every supernova hitherto observed has been considered to be the terminal explosion of a star. Moreover, all supernovae with absorption lines in their spectra show those lines decre…

iPTF Survey for Cool Transients

S. M. Adams, N. Blagorodnova, M. M. Kasliwal +25

We performed a wide-area (2000 deg) g and I band experiment as part of a two month extension to the Intermediate Palomar Transient Factory. We discovered 36 extragalactic tra…

How Many Kilonovae Can Be Found in Past, Present, and Future Survey Datasets?

D. Scolnic, R. Kessler, D. Brout +83

The discovery of a kilonova (KN) associated with the Advanced LIGO (aLIGO)/Virgo event GW170817 opens up new avenues of multi-messenger astrophysics. Here, using realistic simulati…

A Detection of ~2.3 Cosmic Voids from 3D Lyman- Forest Tomography in the COSMOS Field

Alex Krolewski, Khee-Gan Lee, Martin White +10

We present the most distant detection of cosmic voids () and the first detection of three-dimensional voids in the Lyman- forest. We used a 3D tomographic map of the…
