Microlensing Events in the Galactic Plane Using the Zwicky Transient Facility

Antonio C. Rodriguez, Przemek Mróz, Shrinivas R. Kulkarni +9

Microlensing is a powerful technique to study the Galactic population of "dark" objects such as exoplanets both bound and unbound, brown dwarfs, low-luminosity stars, old white dwa…

A WC/WO star exploding within an expanding carbon-oxygen-neon nebula

A. Gal-Yam, R. Bruch, S. Schulze +46

The final explosive fate of massive stars, and the nature of the compact remnants they leave behind (black holes and neutron stars), are major open questions in astrophysics. Many…

The Type Icn SN 2021csp: Implications for the Origins of the Fastest Supernovae and the Fates of Wolf-Rayet Stars

Daniel A. Perley, Jesper Sollerman, Steve Schulze +31

We present observations of SN 2021csp, the second example of a newly-identified type of supernova (Type Icn) hallmarked by strong, narrow, P Cygni carbon features at early times. T…

Establishing accretion flares from massive black holes as a source of high-energy neutrinos

Sjoert van Velzen, Robert Stein, Marat Gilfanov +26

The origin of cosmic high-energy neutrinos remains largely unexplained. For high-energy neutrino alerts from IceCube, a coincidence with time-variable emission has been seen for th…

Candidate Tidal Disruption Event AT2019fdr Coincident with a High-Energy Neutrino

Simeon Reusch, Robert Stein, Marek Kowalski +46

The origins of the high-energy cosmic neutrino flux remain largely unknown. Recently, one high-energy neutrino was associated with a tidal disruption event (TDE). Here we present A…

Less than 1% of Core-Collapse Supernovae in the local universe occur in elliptical galaxies

I. Irani, S. J. Prentice, S. Schulze +39

We present observations of three Core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) in elliptical hosts, detected by the Zwicky Transient Facility Bright Transient Survey (BTS). SN 2019ape is a SN I…
