Target of Opportunity Observations of Gravitational Wave Events with Vera C. Rubin Observatory

Igor Andreoni, Raffaella Margutti, Om Sharan Salafia +52

The discovery of the electromagnetic counterpart to the binary neutron star merger GW170817 has opened the era of gravitational-wave multi-messenger astronomy. Rapid identification…

Optical Observations and Modeling of the Superluminous Supernova 2018lfe

Yao Yin, Sebastian Gomez, Edo Berger +3

We present optical imaging and spectroscopy of SN\,2018lfe, which we classify as a Type I superluminous supernova (SLSN-I) at a redshift of with a peak absolute magnit…

Final Moments I: Precursor Emission, Envelope Inflation, and Enhanced Mass loss Preceding the Luminous Type II Supernova 2020tlf

Wynn Jacobson-Galán, Luc Dessart, David Jones +33

We present panchromatic observations and modeling of supernova (SN) 2020tlf, the first normal type II-P/L SN with confirmed precursor emission, as detected by the Young Supernova E…

Bumpy Declining Light Curves Are Common in Hydrogen-poor Superluminous Supernovae

Griffin Hosseinzadeh, Edo Berger, Brian D. Metzger +3

Recent work has revealed that the light curves of hydrogen-poor (Type I) superluminous supernovae (SLSNe), thought to be powered by magnetar central engines, do not always follow t…

Late-Time Hubble Space Telescope Observations of a Hydrogen-Poor Superluminous Supernova Reveal the Power-Law Decline of a Magnetar Central Engine

Peter K. Blanchard, Edo Berger, Matt Nicholl +3

The light curve diversity of hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) has kept open the possibility that multiple power sources account for the population. Specifically, pair…

Evidence for X-ray Emission in Excess to the Jet Afterglow Decay 3.5 yrs After the Binary Neutron Star Merger GW 170817: A New Emission Component

A. Hajela, R. Margutti, J. S. Bright +34

For the first years after the binary neutron star merger event GW 170817 the radio and X-ray radiation has been dominated by emission from a structured relativistic off-axi…
