The SED Machine: a robotic spectrograph for fast transient classification
Nadejda Blagorodnova, James D. Neill, Richard Walters +13
Current time domain facilities are finding several hundreds of transient astronomical events a year. The discovery rate is expected to increase in the future as soon as new surveys…
LMC X-1: A New Spectral Analysis of the O-star in the binary and surrounding nebula
Elaina A. Hyde, David M. Russell, Andreas Ritter +4
We provide new observations of the LMC X-1 O star and its extended nebula structure using spectroscopic data from VLT/UVES as well as H imaging from the Wide Field Imager on the…
iPTF16asu: A Luminous, Rapidly-Evolving, and High-Velocity Supernova
L. Whitesides, R. Lunnan, M. M. Kasliwal +23
Wide-field surveys are discovering a growing number of rare transients whose physical origin is not yet well understood. Here, we present optical and UV data and analysis of iPTF16…
