Identification of RR Lyrae stars in multiband, sparsely-sampled data from the Dark Energy Survey using template fitting and Random Forest classification

K. M. Stringer, J. P. Long, L. M. Macri +75

Many studies have shown that RR Lyrae variable stars (RRL) are powerful stellar tracers of Galactic halo structure and satellite galaxies. The Dark Energy Survey (DES), with its de…

UV-Luminous, Star-Forming Hosts of z~2 Reddened Quasars in the Dark Energy Survey

C. F. Wethers, M. Banerji, P. C. Hewett +55

We present the first rest-frame UV population study of 17 heavily reddened, high-luminosity (E(B-V) 0.5; L 10ergs) broad-line quasar…

Evidence for Dynamically Driven Formation of the GW170817 Neutron Star Binary in NGC 4993

A. Palmese, W. Hartley, F. Tarsitano +89

We present a study of NGC 4993, the host galaxy of the GW170817 gravitational wave event, the GRB170817A short gamma-ray burst (sGRB) and the AT2017gfo kilonova. We use Dark Energy…

How Many Kilonovae Can Be Found in Past, Present, and Future Survey Datasets?

D. Scolnic, R. Kessler, D. Brout +83

The discovery of a kilonova (KN) associated with the Advanced LIGO (aLIGO)/Virgo event GW170817 opens up new avenues of multi-messenger astrophysics. Here, using realistic simulati…
