Processing Images from the Zwicky Transient Facility
Russ R. Laher, Frank J. Masci, Steve Groom +25
The Zwicky Transient Facility is a new robotic-observing program, in which a newly engineered 600-MP digital camera with a pioneeringly large field of view, 47~square degrees, will…
Confined Dense Circumstellar Material Surrounding a Regular Type II Supernova: The Unique Flash-Spectroscopy Event of SN 2013fs
O. Yaron, D. A. Perley, A. Gal-Yam +30
With the advent of new wide-field, high-cadence optical transient surveys, our understanding of the diversity of core-collapse supernovae has grown tremendously in the last decade.…
Interacting supernovae and supernova impostors. LSQ13zm: an outburst heralds the death of a massive star
L. Tartaglia, A. Pastorello, M. Sullivan +37
We report photometric and spectroscopic observations of the optical transient LSQ13zm. Historical data reveal the presence of an eruptive episode (that we label as `2013a') followe…
Strong Ultraviolet Pulse From a Newborn Type Ia Supernova
Yi Cao, S. R. Kulkarni, D. Andrew Howell +19
Type Ia supernovae are destructive explosions of carbon oxygen white dwarfs. Although they are used empirically to measure cosmological distances, the nature of their progenitors r…
