Observations of the luminous red nova AT 2021biy in the nearby galaxy NGC 4631
Y. -Z. Cai, A. Pastorello, M. Fraser +73
We present an observational study of the luminous red nova (LRN) AT\,2021biy in the nearby galaxy NGC\,4631. The field of the object was routinely imaged during the pre-eruptive st…
Early observations of the nearby type Ia supernova SN 2015F
R. Cartier, M. Sullivan, R. Firth +25
We present photometry and time-series spectroscopy of the nearby type Ia supernova (SN Ia) SN 2015F over days to days relative to maximum light, obtained as part of the…
PESSTO : survey description and products from the first data release by the Public ESO Spectroscopic Survey of Transient Objects
S. J. Smartt, S. Valenti, M. Fraser +99
The Public European Southern Observatory Spectroscopic Survey of Transient Objects (PESSTO) began as a public spectroscopic survey in April 2012. We describe the data reduction str…
SN 2012ec: mass of the progenitor from PESSTO follow-up of the photospheric phase
C. Barbarino, M. Dall'Ora, M. T. Botticella +32
We present the results of a photometric and spectroscopic monitoring campaign of SN 2012ec, which exploded in the spiral galaxy NGC 1084, during the photospheric phase. The photome…
OGLE-2013-SN-079: a lonely supernova consistent with a helium shell detonation
C. Inserra, S. A. Sim, L. Wyrzykowski +31
We present observational data for a peculiar supernova discovered by the OGLE-IV survey and followed by the Public ESO Spectroscopic Survey for Transient Objects. The inferred reds…
