SN2013fs and SN2013fr: Exploring the circumstellar-material diversity in Type II supernovae

Christopher Bullivant, Nathan Smith, G. Grant Williams +12

We present photometry and spectroscopy of SN2013fs and SN2013fr in the first 100 days post-explosion. Both objects showed transient, relatively narrow H emission lines character…

The environment of the binary neutron star merger GW170817

A. J. Levan, J. D. Lyman, N. R. Tanvir +37

We present Hubble Space Telescope and Chandra imaging, combined with Very Large Telescope MUSE integral field spectroscopy of the counterpart and host galaxy of the first binary ne…

The X-ray counterpart to the gravitational wave event GW 170817

E. Troja, L. Piro, H. van Eerten +31

A long-standing paradigm in astrophysics is that collisions- or mergers- of two neutron stars (NSs) form highly relativistic and collimated outflows (jets) powering gamma-ray burst…

X-ray Emission from SN 2012ca: A Type Ia-CSM Supernova Explosion in a Dense Surrounding Medium

C. D. Bochenek, Vikram. V. Dwarkadas, Jeffrey M. Silverman +4

X-ray emission is one of the signposts of circumstellar interaction in supernovae (SNe), but until now, it has been observed only in core-collapse SNe. The level of thermal X-ray e…

Probing gas and dust in the tidal tail of NGC 5221 with the type Ia supernova iPTF16abc

R. Ferretti, R. Amanullah, A. Goobar +8

Context. Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) can be used to address numerous questions in astrophysics and cosmology. Due to their well known spectral and photometric properties, SNe Ia ar…

Constraints on the Progenitor of SN 2010jl and Pre-Existing Hot Dust in its Surrounding Medium

Eli Dwek, Richard G. Arendt, Ori D. Fox +6

A search for the progenitor of SN~2010jl, an unusually luminous core-collapse supernova of Type~IIn, using pre-explosion {\it Hubble}/WFPC2 and {\it Spitzer}/IRAC images of the reg…
