Two New Calcium-Rich Gap Transients in Group and Cluster Environments
R. Lunnan, M. M. Kasliwal, Y. Cao +20
We present the Palomar Transient Factory discoveries and the photometric and spectroscopic observations of PTF11kmb and PTF12bho. We show that both transients have properties consi…
iPTF16geu: A multiply imaged, gravitationally lensed type Ia supernova
A. Goobar, R. Amanullah, S. R. Kulkarni +31
We report the discovery of a multiply-imaged gravitationally lensed Type Ia supernova, iPTF16geu (SN 2016geu), at redshift . This phenomenon could be identified because th…
Common Envelope ejection for a Luminous Red Nova in M101
N. Blagorodnova, R. Kotak, J. Polshaw +30
We present the results of optical, near-infrared, and mid-infrared observations of M101 OT2015-1 (PSN J14021678+5426205), a luminous red transient in the Pinwheel galaxy (M101), sp…
iPTF Search for an Optical Counterpart to Gravitational Wave Trigger GW150914
M. M. Kasliwal, S. B. Cenko, L. P. Singer +28
The intermediate Palomar Transient Factory (iPTF) autonomously responded to and promptly tiled the error region of the first gravitational wave event GW150914 to search for an opti…
The Caltech-NRAO Stripe 82 Survey (CNSS) Paper I: The Pilot Radio Transient Survey In 50 deg
K. P. Mooley, G. Hallinan, S. Bourke +10
We have commenced a multi-year program, the Caltech-NRAO Stripe 82 Survey (CNSS), to search for radio transients with the Jansky VLA in the SDSS Stripe 82 region. The CNSS will del…
