Metallicity beats sSFR: The connection between superluminous supernova host galaxy environments and the importance of metallicity for their production
Cressida Cleland, Sean L. McGee, Matt Nicholl
We analyse 33 Type I superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) taken from ZTF's Bright Transient Survey to investigate the local environments of their host galaxies. We use a spectroscopic…
Short GRB Host Galaxies I: Photometric and Spectroscopic Catalogs, Host Associations, and Galactocentric Offsets
Wen-fai Fong, Anya E. Nugent, Yuxin Dong +25
We present a comprehensive optical and near-infrared census of the fields of 90 short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) discovered in 2005-2021, constituting all short GRBs for which host ga…
A Precise Distance to the Host Galaxy of the Binary Neutron Star Merger GW170817 Using Surface Brightness Fluctuations
Michele Cantiello, J. B. Jensen, J. P. Blakeslee +25
The joint detection of gravitational waves and electromagnetic radiation from the binary neutron star (BNS) merger GW170817 has provided unprecedented insight into a wide range of…
Superluminous supernova progenitors have a half-solar metallicity threshold
T. -W. Chen, S. J. Smartt, R. M. Yates +5
Host galaxy properties provide strong constraints on the stellar progenitors of superluminous supernovae. By comparing a sample of 19 low-redshift (z < 0.3) superluminous supernova…
