The early detection and follow-up of the highly obscured Type II supernova 2016ija/DLT16am

L. Tartaglia, D. J. Sand, S. Valenti +45

We present our analysis of the Type II supernova DLT16am (SN~2016ija). The object was discovered during the ongoing (DLT40) one day cadence supernova search a…

The discovery of the electromagnetic counterpart of GW170817: kilonova AT 2017gfo/DLT17ck

Stefano Valenti, David J. Sand, Sheng Yang +7

During the second observing run of the Laser Interferometer gravitational- wave Observatory (LIGO) and Virgo Interferometer, a gravitational-wave signal consistent with a binary ne…

An empirical limit on the kilonova rate from the DLT40 one day cadence Supernova Survey

Sheng Yang, Stefano Valenti, Enrico Cappellaro +6

Binary neutron star mergers are important to understand stellar evolution, the chemical enrichment of the universe via the r-process, the physics of short gamma-ray bursts, gravita…

SN 2016coi/ASASSN-16fp: An example of residual helium in a type Ic supernova?

S. J. Prentice, C. Ashall, P. A. Mazzali +35

The optical observations of Ic-4 supernova (SN) 2016coi/ASASSN-16fp, from to days after explosion, are presented along with analysis of its physical properties.…

Early Blue Excess from the Type Ia Supernova 2017cbv and Implications for Its Progenitor

Griffin Hosseinzadeh, David J. Sand, Stefano Valenti +11

We present very early, high-cadence photometric observations of the nearby Type Ia SN 2017cbv. The light curve is unique in that it has a blue bump during the first five days of ob…

Numerically Modeling the First Peak of the Type IIb SN 2016gkg

Anthony L. Piro, Marc Muhleisen, Iair Arcavi +3

Many Type IIb supernovae (SNe) show a prominent additional early peak in their light curves, which is generally thought to be due to the shock cooling of extended hydrogen-rich mat…
