Optical emission from a kilonova following a gravitational-wave-detected neutron-star merger
Iair Arcavi, Griffin Hosseinzadeh, D. Andrew Howell +8
The merger of two neutron stars has been predicted to produce an optical-infrared transient (lasting a few days) known as a 'kilonova', powered by the radioactive decay of neutron-…
Optical Follow-up of Gravitational-wave Events with Las Cumbres Observatory
Iair Arcavi, Curtis McCully, Griffin Hosseinzadeh +11
We present an implementation of the Gehrels et al. (2016) galaxy-targeted strategy for gravitational-wave (GW) follow-up using the Las Cumbres Observatory global network of telesco…
LSQ14efd: observations of the cooling of a shock break-out event in a type Ic Supernova
C. Barbarino, M. T. Botticella, M. Dall'Ora +29
We present the photometric and spectroscopic evolution of the type Ic supernova LSQ14efd, discovered by the La Silla QUEST survey and followed by PESSTO. LSQ14efd was discovered fe…
The diversity of Type II supernova versus the similarity in their progenitors
S. Valenti, D. A. Howell, M. D. Stritzinger +19
High-quality collections of Type II supernova (SN) light curves are scarce because they evolve for hundreds of days, making follow-up observations time consuming and often extendin…
