Understanding the extreme luminosity of DES14X2fna

M. Grayling, C. P. Gutiérrez, M. Sullivan +66

We present DES14X2fna, a high-luminosity, fast-declining type IIb supernova (SN IIb) at redshift , detected by the Dark Energy Survey (DES). DES14X2fna is an unusual memb…

Candidate Periodically Variable Quasars from the Dark Energy Survey and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

Yu-Ching Chen, Xin Liu, Wei-Ting Liao +62

Periodically variable quasars have been suggested as close binary supermassive black holes. We present a systematic search for periodic light curves in 625 spectroscopically confir…

Studying Type II supernovae as cosmological standard candles using the Dark Energy Survey

T. de Jaeger, L. Galbany, S. González-Gaitán +85

Despite vast improvements in the measurement of the cosmological parameters, the nature of dark energy and an accurate value of the Hubble constant (H) in the Hubble-Lemaître l…

The Mystery of Photometric Twins DES17X1boj and DES16E2bjy

M. Pursiainen, C. Gutierrez, P. Wiseman +80

We present an analysis of DES17X1boj and DES16E2bjy, two peculiar transients discovered by the Dark Energy Survey (DES). They exhibit nearly identical double-peaked light curves wh…

Superluminous Supernovae from the Dark Energy Survey

C. R. Angus, M. Smith, M. Sullivan +72

We present a sample of 21 hydrogen-free superluminous supernovae (SLSNe-I), and one hydrogen-rich SLSN (SLSN-II) detected during the five-year Dark Energy Survey (DES). These SNe,…

A Search for Optical Emission from Binary-Black-Hole Merger GW170814 with the Dark Energy Camera

Z. Doctor, R. Kessler, K. Herner +96

Binary black hole (BBH) mergers found by the LIGO and Virgo detectors are of immense scientific interest to the astrophysics community, but are considered unlikely to be sources of…
