Microlensing Events in the Galactic Plane Using the Zwicky Transient Facility
Antonio C. Rodriguez, Przemek Mróz, Shrinivas R. Kulkarni +9
Microlensing is a powerful technique to study the Galactic population of "dark" objects such as exoplanets both bound and unbound, brown dwarfs, low-luminosity stars, old white dwa…
A WC/WO star exploding within an expanding carbon-oxygen-neon nebula
A. Gal-Yam, R. Bruch, S. Schulze +46
The final explosive fate of massive stars, and the nature of the compact remnants they leave behind (black holes and neutron stars), are major open questions in astrophysics. Many…
Science with the Ultraviolet Explorer (UVEX)
S. R. Kulkarni, Fiona A. Harrison, Brian W. Grefenstette +53
UVEX is a proposed medium class Explorer mission designed to provide crucial missing capabilities that will address objectives central to a broad range of modern astrophysics. The…
The Type Icn SN 2021csp: Implications for the Origins of the Fastest Supernovae and the Fates of Wolf-Rayet Stars
Daniel A. Perley, Jesper Sollerman, Steve Schulze +31
We present observations of SN 2021csp, the second example of a newly-identified type of supernova (Type Icn) hallmarked by strong, narrow, P Cygni carbon features at early times. T…
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…
Faintest of them all : ZTF 21aaoryiz/SN 2021fcg -- Discovery of an extremely low luminosity type Iax supernova
Viraj R. Karambelkar, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Kate Maguire +20
We present the discovery of ZTF 21aaoryiz/SN 2021fcg -- an extremely low-luminosity Type Iax supernova. SN 2021fcg was discovered by the Zwicky Transient Facility in the star-formi…
