Explaining Non-Merger Gamma-Ray Bursts and Broad-Lined Supernovae with Close Binary Progenitors with Black Hole Central Engine

Christopher L. Fryer, Eric Burns, Anna Y. Q. Ho +5

For over 25 years, the origin of long-duration gamma-ray bursts (lGRBs) has been linked to the collapse of rotating massive stars. However, we have yet to pinpoint the stellar prog…

The Nature of Optical Afterglows Without Gamma-ray Bursts: Identification of AT2023lcr and Multiwavelength Modeling

Maggie L. Li, Anna Y. Q. Ho, Geoffrey Ryan +29

In the past few years, the improved sensitivity and cadence of wide-field optical surveys have enabled the discovery of several afterglows without associated detected gamma-ray bur…

The Palomar twilight survey of 'Ayló'chaxnim, Atiras, and comets

B. T. Bolin, F. J. Masci, M. W. Coughlin +29

Near-sun sky twilight observations allow for the detection of asteroid interior to the orbit of Venus (Aylos), the Earth (Atiras), and comets. We present the results of observation…

Sample of hydrogen-rich superluminous supernovae from the Zwicky Transient Facility

P. J. Pessi, R. Lunnan, J. Sollerman +26

Hydrogen-rich superluminous supernovae (SLSNe II) are rare. The exact mechanism producing their extreme light curve peaks is not understood. Analysis of single events and small sam…

Optical and Radio Analysis of Systematically Classified Broad-lined Type Ic Supernovae from the Zwicky Transient Facility

Gokul P. Srinivasaragavan, Sheng Yang, Shreya Anand +35

We study a magnitude-limited sample of 36 Broad-lined Type Ic Supernovae (SNe Ic-BL) from the Zwicky Transient Facility Bright Transient Survey (detected between March 2018 and Aug…

The MOST Hosts Survey: spectroscopic observation of the host galaxies of ~40,000 transients using DESI

Maayane T. Soumagnac, Peter Nugent, Robert A. Knop +54

We present the MOST Hosts survey (Multi-Object Spectroscopy of Transient Hosts). The survey is planned to run throughout the five years of operation of the Dark Energy Spectroscopi…
