The Long-Lived UV "Plateau" of SN 2012aw
Amanda J. Bayless, Tyler Pritchard, Peter W. A. Roming +9
Observations with the Swift UVOT have unambiguously uncovered for the first time a long-lived, UV "plateau" in a Type II-P supernova (SN). Although this flattening in slope is hint…
Stellar Archaeology in the Galactic halo with Ultra-Faint Dwarfs: VII. Hercules
Ilaria Musella, Vincenzo Ripepi, Marcella Marconi +13
We present the first time-series study of the ultra-faint dwarf galaxy Hercules. Using a variety of telescope/instrument facilities we secured about 50 V and 80 B epochs. These dat…
A New Reddening Law for M4
Benjamin Hendricks, Peter B. Stetson, Don A. VandenBerg +1
We have used a combination of broad-band near-infrared and optical Johnson-Cousins photometry to study the dust properties in the line of sight to the Galactic globular cluster M4.…
The Carina Project. V. The impact of NLTE effects on the iron content
M. Fabrizio, T. Merle, F. Thévenin +21
We have performed accurate iron abundance measurements for 44 red giants (RGs) in the Carina dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy. We used archival, high-resolution spectra (R~38,000) co…
Red and dead: The progenitor of SN 2012aw in M95
M. Fraser, J. R. Maund, S. J. Smartt +17
Core-collapse supernovae (SNe) are the spectacular finale to massive stellar evolution. In this Letter, we identify a progenitor for the nearby core-collapse SN 2012aw in both grou…
Stellar Archaeology in the Galactic halo with the Ultra-Faint Dwarfs: VI. Ursa Major II
M. Dall'Ora, K. Kinemuchi, V. Ripepi +11
We present a B, V color-magnitude diagram (CMD) of the Milky Way dwarf satellite Ursa Major II (UMa II), spanning the magnitude range from V ~ 15 to V ~ 23.5 mag and extending over…
