A Near-Infrared Period-Luminosity Relation for Miras in NGC 4258, an Anchor for a New Distance Ladder
Caroline D. Huang, Adam G. Riess, Samantha L. Hoffmann +8
We present year-long, near-infrared Hubble Space Telescope WFC3 observations of Mira variables in the water megamaser host galaxy NGC 4258. Miras are AGB variables that can be divi…
ALMA and RATIR observations of GRB131030A
Kuiyun Huang, Yuji Urata, Satoko Takahashi +22
We report on the first open-use based Atacama Large Millimeter/submm Array (ALMA) 345-GHz observation for the late afterglow phase of GRB131030A. The ALMA observation constrained a…
Happy Birthday Swift: Ultra-long GRB141121A and its broad-band Afterglow
A. Cucchiara, P. Veres, A. Corsi +27
We present our extensive observational campaign on the Swift-discovered GRB141121A, al- most ten years after its launch. Our observations covers radio through X-rays, and extends f…
iPTF14yb: The First Discovery of a GRB Afterglow Independent of a High-Energy Trigger
S. Bradley Cenko, Alex L. Urban, Daniel A. Perley +34
We report here the discovery by the Intermediate Palomar Transient Factory (iPTF) of iPTF14yb, a luminous ( mag), cosmological (redshift 1.9733), rapidly fading…
Clustered Cepheid Variables 90 kiloparsec from the Galactic Center
Sukanya Chakrabarti, Roberto Saito, Alice Quillen +3
Distant regions close to the plane of our Galaxy are largely unexplored by optical surveys as they are hidden by dust. We have used near-infrared data (that minimizes dust obscurat…
A detailed study of the optical attenuation of gamma-ray bursts in the Swift era
O. M. Littlejohns, N. R. Butler, A. Cucchiara +16
We present optical and near-infrared (NIR) photometry of 28 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected by the \textit{Swift} satellite and rapidly observed by the Reionization and Transients…
