Hydrogen-Poor Superluminous Supernovae and Long-Duration Gamma-Ray Bursts Have Similar Host Galaxies
R. Lunnan, R. Chornock, E. Berger +27
We present optical spectroscopy and optical/near-IR photometry of 31 host galaxies of hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe), including 15 events from the Pan-STARRS1 Mediu…
The superluminous supernova PS1-11ap: bridging the gap between low and high redshift
M. McCrum, S. J. Smartt, R. Kotak +37
We present optical photometric and spectroscopic coverage of the superluminous supernova (SLSN) PS1-11ap, discovered with the Pan-STARRS1 Medium Deep Survey at z = 0.524. This intr…
Cosmological Constraints from Measurements of Type Ia Supernovae discovered during the first 1.5 years of the Pan-STARRS1 Survey
A. Rest, D. Scolnic, R. J. Foley +46
We present griz light curves of 146 spectroscopically confirmed Type Ia Supernovae () discovered during the first 1.5 years of the Pan-STARRS1 Medium Deep Survey. T…
Systematic Uncertainties Associated with the Cosmological Analysis of the First Pan-STARRS1 Type Ia Supernova Sample
D. Scolnic, A. Rest, A. Riess +46
We probe the systematic uncertainties from 113 Type Ia supernovae (SNIa) in the Pan-STARRS1 (PS1) sample along with 197 SN Ia from a combination of low-redshift surveys. The compan…
A Wolf in Sheepskin: Extraordinary Supernova 2012au Veiled Behind Ordinary Radio Emission
Atish Kamble, Alicia M. Soderberg, Laura Chomiuk +11
We present extensive radio and X-ray observations of SN\, 2012au, the energetic radio luminous supernova of type Ib that may be a link between subsets of hydrogen-poor superluminou…
The UV-bright, Slowly Declining Transient PS1-11af as a Partial Tidal Disruption Event
R. Chornock, E. Berger, S. Gezari +34
We present the Pan-STARRS1 discovery of the long-lived and blue transient PS1-11af, which was also detected by GALEX with coordinated observations in the near-ultraviolet (NUV) ban…
