Spectroscopy of High-Redshift Supernovae from the ESSENCE Project: The First Four Years
R. J. Foley, T. Matheson, S. Blondin +23
We present the results of spectroscopic observations from the ESSENCE high-redshift supernova (SN) survey during its first four years of operation. This sample includes spectra of…
Exploring the Outer Solar System with the ESSENCE Supernova Survey
A. C. Becker, K. Arraki, N. A. Kaib +36
We report the discovery and orbit determination of 14 trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) from the ESSENCE Supernova Survey difference imaging dataset. Two additional objects discovered…
Spectral Identification of an Ancient Supernova using Light Echoes in the LMC
A. Rest, T. Matheson, S. Blondin +26
We report the successful identification of the type of the supernova responsible for the supernova remnant SNR 0509-675 in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) using Gemini spectra of…
Type Ia Supernovae are Good Standard Candles in the Near Infrared: Evidence from PAIRITEL
W. Michael Wood-Vasey, Andrew S. Friedman, Joshua S. Bloom +11
We have obtained 1087 NIR (JHKs) measurements of 21 SNe Ia using PAIRITEL, nearly doubling the number of well-sampled NIR SN Ia light curves. These data strengthen the evidence tha…
The Unusual Variability of the Large Magellanic Cloud Planetary Nebula RPJ 053059-683542
Richard A. Shaw, Armin Rest, Guillermo Damke +3
We present images and light curves of the bipolar Planetary Nebula RPJ 053059-683542 that was discovered in the Reid-Parker AAO/UKST H-alpha survey of the Large Magellanic Cloud (L…
Variable stars in the Fornax dSph Galaxy. I. The Globular Cluster Fornax 4
C. Greco, G. Clementini, M. Catelan +8
Variable stars have been identified for the first time in Fornax 4, the globular cluster located near the center of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy. By applying the image subtra…
