Census of R Coronae Borealis stars I: Infrared light curves from Palomar Gattini IR

Viraj R. Karambelkar, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Patrick Tisserand +16

We are undertaking the first systematic infrared (IR) census of R Coronae Borealis (RCB) stars in the Milky Way, beginning with IR light curves from the Palomar Gattini IR (PGIR) s…

Helium-rich Superluminous Supernovae From the Zwicky Transient Facility

Lin Yan, D. Perley, S. Schulze +39

Helium is expected to be present in the ejecta of some hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSN-I). However, so far only one event, PTF10hgi has been identified with He feature…

Gravitational microlensing events from the first year of the northern Galactic plane survey by the Zwicky Transient Facility

P. Mroz, R. A. Street, E. Bachelet +12

The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) is currently surveying the entire northern sky, including dense Galactic plane fields. Here, we present preliminary results of the search for gr…

Type IIn supernova light-curve properties measured from an untargeted survey sample

A. Nyholm, J. Sollerman, L. Tartaglia +19

We present a sample of supernovae Type IIn (SNe IIn) from the untargeted, magnitude-limited surveys of the Palomar Transient Factory (PTF) and its successor, the intermediate PTF (…
