A kilonova as the electromagnetic counterpart to a gravitational-wave source

S. J. Smartt, T. -W. Chen, A. Jerkstrand +118

Gravitational waves were discovered with the detection of binary black hole mergers and they should also be detectable from lower mass neutron star mergers. These are predicted to…

Dust reddening and extinction curves towards gamma-ray bursts at z > 4

Jan Bolmer, Jochen Greiner, Thomas Krühler +4

Dust is known to be produced in the envelopes of AGB stars, the expanded shells of supernova (SN) remnants, and in situ grain growth in the ISM, although the corresponding efficien…

Spatially resolved MaNGA observations of the host galaxy of superluminous supernova 2017egm

Ting-Wan Chen, Patricia Schady, Lin Xiao +6

Superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) are found predominantly in dwarf galaxies, indicating that their progenitors have a low metallicity. However, the most nearby SLSN to date, SN 2017…

The environment of the SN-less GRB 111005A at z = 0.0133

M. Tanga, T. Krühler, P. Schady +5

The collapsar model has proved highly successful in explaining the properties of long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), with the most direct confirmation being the detection of a supernova…
