SNe 2013K and 2013am: observed and physical properties of two slow, normal Type IIP events
L. Tomasella, E. Cappellaro, M. L. Pumo +28
We present one year of optical and near-infrared photometry and spectroscopy of the Type IIP SNe 2013K and 2013am. Both objects are affected by significant extinction, due to their…
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…
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…
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.…
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…
