SN 2017dio: a type-Ic supernova exploding in a hydrogen-rich circumstellar medium

Hanindyo Kuncarayakti, Keiichi Maeda, Christopher J. Ashall +42

SN 2017dio shows both spectral characteristics of a type-Ic supernova (SN) and signs of a hydrogen-rich circumstellar medium (CSM). Prominent, narrow emission lines of H and He are…

The early detection and follow-up of the highly obscured Type II supernova 2016ija/DLT16am

L. Tartaglia, D. J. Sand, S. Valenti +45

We present our analysis of the Type II supernova DLT16am (SN~2016ija). The object was discovered during the ongoing (DLT40) one day cadence supernova search a…

Energetic eruptions leading to a peculiar hydrogen-rich explosion of a massive star

Iair Arcavi, D. Andrew Howell, Daniel Kasen +50

Every supernova hitherto observed has been considered to be the terminal explosion of a star. Moreover, all supernovae with absorption lines in their spectra show those lines decre…

iPTF Survey for Cool Transients

S. M. Adams, N. Blagorodnova, M. M. Kasliwal +25

We performed a wide-area (2000 deg) g and I band experiment as part of a two month extension to the Intermediate Palomar Transient Factory. We discovered 36 extragalactic tra…

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…

Hydrogen-rich supernovae beyond the neutrino-driven core-collapse paradigm

G. Terreran, M. L. Pumo, T. -W. Chen +41

We present our study of OGLE-2014-SN-073, one of the brightest Type II SN ever discovered, with an unusually broad lightcurve combined with high ejecta velocities. From our hydrody…
