The prevalence and influence of circumstellar material around hydrogen-rich supernova progenitors
Rachel J. Bruch, Avishay Gal-Yam, Ofer Yaron +44
Narrow transient emission lines (flash-ionization features) in early supernova (SN) spectra trace the presence of circumstellar material (CSM) around the massive progenitor stars o…
A dense star in a 51-minute orbital period eclipsing binary
Kevin B. Burdge, Kareem El-Badry, Thomas R. Marsh +24
In over a thousand known cataclysmic variables (CVs), where a white dwarf is accreting from a hydrogen-rich star, only a dozen have orbital periods below 75 minutes. One way to ach…
RINGO3 polarimetry of very young ZTF supernovae
J. R. Maund, Y. Yang, I. A. Steele +13
The early phases of the observed evolution of the supernovae (SNe) are expected to be dominated by the shock breakout and ``flash" ionization of the surrounding circumstellar mediu…
A 62-minute orbital period black widow binary in a wide hierarchical triple
Kevin B. Burdge, Thomas R. Marsh, Jim Fuller +30
Over a dozen millisecond pulsars are ablating low-mass companions in close binary systems. In the original "black widow", the 8-hour orbital period eclipsing pulsar PSR J1959+2048…
Zwicky Transient Facility and Globular Clusters: The RR Lyrae gri-Band Period-Luminosity-Metallicity and Period-Wesenheit-Metallicity Relations
Chow-Choong Ngeow, Anupam Bhardwaj, Richard Dekany +7
Based on time-series observations collected from Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF), we derived period-luminosity-metallicity (PLZ) and period-Wesenheit-metallicity (PWZ) relations fo…
A Uniform Type Ia Supernova Distance Ladder with the Zwicky Transient Facility: Absolute Calibration Based on the Tip of the Red Giant Branch (TRGB) Method
Suhail Dhawan, Ariel Goobar, Joel Johansson +21
The current Cepheid-calibrated distance ladder measurement of is reported to be in tension with the values inferred from the cosmic microwave background (CMB), assuming stand…
