Hayabusa-2 Mission Target Asteroid 162173 Ryugu (1999 JU3): Searching for the Object's Spin-Axis Orientation

T. G. Müller, J. Ďurech, M. Ishiguro +27

The JAXA Hayabusa-2 mission was approved in 2010 and launched on December 3, 2014. The spacecraft will arrive at the near-Earth asteroid 162173 Ryugu in 2018 where it will perform…

The evolution of superluminous supernova LSQ14mo and its interacting host galaxy system

T. -W. Chen, M. Nicholl, S. J. Smartt +26

We present and analyse an extensive dataset of the superluminous supernova (SLSN) LSQ14mo (z = 0.256), consisting of a multi-colour lightcurve from -30 d to +70 d in the rest-frame…

MUSE Reveals a Recent Merger in the Post-starburst Host Galaxy of the TDE ASASSN-14li

J. L. Prieto, T. Krühler, J. P. Anderson +13

We present MUSE integral field spectroscopic observations of the host galaxy (PGC 043234) of one of the closest (, Mpc) and best-studied tidal disruption eve…

Discovery of a Perseus-like cloud in the early Universe: HI-to-H2 transition, carbon monoxide and small dust grains at zabs=2.53 towards the quasar J0000+0048

P. Noterdaeme, J. -K. Krogager, S. Balashev +10

We present the discovery of a molecular cloud at zabs=2.5255 along the line of sight to the quasar J0000+0048. We perform a detailed analysis of the absorption lines from ionic, ne…

Long-duration superluminous supernovae at late times

A. Jerkstrand, S. J. Smartt, C. Inserra +13

Nebular-phase observations and spectral models of Type Ic superluminous supernovae are presented. LSQ14an and SN 2015bn both display late-time spectra similar to galaxy-subtracted…

Evolution of the dust-to-metals ratio in high-redshift galaxies probed by GRB-DLAs

P. Wiseman, P. Schady, J. Bolmer +4

Context. Several issues regarding the nature of dust at high redshift remain unresolved: its composition, its production and growth mechanisms, and its effect on background sources…

Probing dust-obscured star formation in the most massive Gamma-Ray Burst host galaxies

Jochen Greiner, Michal J. Michalowski, Sylvio Klose +15

Due to their relation to massive stars, long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) allow pinpointing star formation in galaxies independently of redshift, dust obscuration, or galaxy ma…

Highly Luminous Supernovae associated with Gamma-Ray Bursts I.: GRB 111209A/SN 2011kl in the Context of Stripped-Envelope and Superluminous Supernovae

D. A. Kann, P. Schady, F. E. Olivares +22

GRB 111209A, one of the longest Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) ever observed, is linked to SN 2011kl, the most luminous GRB-Supernova (SN) detected so far, which shows evidence for being…

Superluminous supernova progenitors have a half-solar metallicity threshold

T. -W. Chen, S. J. Smartt, R. M. Yates +5

Host galaxy properties provide strong constraints on the stellar progenitors of superluminous supernovae. By comparing a sample of 19 low-redshift (z < 0.3) superluminous supernova…

On the nature of Hydrogen-rich Superluminous Supernovae

C. Inserra, S. J. Smartt, E. E. E. Gall +33

We present two hydrogen-rich superluminous supernovae (SLSNe), namely SN2013hx and PS15br. These objects, together with SN2008es are the only SLSNe showing a distinct, broad Halpha…
