Not So Heavy Metal I: Low Metallicity Enhances the Rate of high-redshift Superluminous Supernovae
Ben Margalit, Allison L. Strom, Cristina Andrade +4
Type-I superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) are extremely luminous stellar explosions originating from the core collapse of massive stars. Unlike normal core-collapse supernovae, howev…
Fast radio burst - persistent radio source systems II. A faint PRS associated with the nearby FRB 20181030A?
D. Pelliciari, G. Bernardi, B. Margalit +10
Persistent radio sources (PRSs) are the continuum counterparts of fast radio bursts (FRBs), the latter being extragalactic transients of millisecond duration and Jy-level flux dens…
Synchrotron Emission from Cooled Particle Distributions
Ross Ferguson, Ben Margalit
Synchrotron emitting electrons can lose energy (`cool') through various processes including radiative losses (e.g., synchrotron or inverse-Compton cooling) and adiabatic expansion.…
Old and Bright: The Remarkable Radio Brightening of the Engine-driven SN 2012au Several Years After Explosion Signals the Birth of a PWN
Eli Wiston, Raffaella Margutti, A. J. Nayana +23
We present the results from an extensive broad-band (radio to X-rays) observing campaign of the engine-driven Type Ib SN 2012au in the first 13 years of evolution. The early-time (…
Multiwavelength Analysis of Six Luminous Fast Blue Optical Transients
Cassie Sevilla, Anna Y. Q. Ho, Nayana A. J. +43
We present multiwavelength observations and analysis of six luminous fast blue optical transients (LFBOTs) discovered in Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) survey data. We identified…
No Sign of a Magnetar Remnant Following the Kilonova-Producing Long GRB 211211A Years Later
Genevieve Schroeder, Ben Margalit, Brian D. Metzger +9
In addition to a -ray burst (GRB), the merger of two neutron stars may produce a temporarily or indefinitely stable neutron star remnant with a strong magnetic field (a "magneta…
