Comparative Analysis of SN 2012dn Optical Spectra: Days -14 to +114

J. T. Parrent, D. A. Howell, R. A. Fesen +19

SN 2012dn is a super-Chandrasekhar mass candidate in a purportedly normal spiral (SAcd) galaxy, and poses a challenge for theories of type Ia supernova diversity. Here we utilize t…

GRB Flares: UV/Optical Flaring (Paper I)

C. A. Swenson, P. W. A. Roming, M. De Pasquale +1

We present a new algorithm for the detection of flares in gamma-ray burst (GRB) light curves and use this algorithm to detect flares in the UV/optical. The algorithm makes use of t…
