SN 2020kyg and the rates of faint Iax Supernovae from ATLAS
Shubham Srivastav, S. J. Smartt, M. E. Huber +17
We present multi-wavelength follow-up observations of the ATLAS discovered faint Iax supernova SN 2020kyg that peaked at an absolute magnitude of , makin…
PS15cey and PS17cke: prospective candidates from the Pan-STARRS Search for Kilonovae
Owen R. McBrien, Stephen J. Smartt, Mark E. Huber +22
Time domain astronomy was revolutionised with the discovery of the first kilonova, AT2017gfo, in August 2017 which was associated with the gravitational wave signal GW170817. Since…
Design and operation of the ATLAS Transient Science Server
K. W. Smith, S. J. Smartt, D. R. Young +19
The Asteroid Terrestrial impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) system consists of two 0.5m Schmidt telescopes with cameras covering 29 square degrees at plate scale of 1.86 arcsec per p…
The lowest of the low: discovery of SN 2019gsc and the nature of faint Iax supernovae
Shubham Srivastav, Stephen J. Smartt, Giorgos Leloudas +15
We present the discovery and optical follow-up of the faintest supernova-like transient known. The event (SN 2019gsc) was discovered in a star-forming host at 53\,Mpc by ATLAS. A d…
Observational constraints on the optical and near-infrared emission from the neutron star-black hole binary merger S190814bv
K. Ackley, L. Amati, C. Barbieri +151
On 2019 August 14, the LIGO and Virgo interferometers detected a high-significance event labelled S190814bv. Preliminary analysis of the GW data suggests that the event was likely…
SN2018kzr: a rapidly declining transient from the destruction of a white dwarf
Owen R. McBrien, Stephen J. Smartt, Ting-Wan Chen +31
We present SN2018kzr, the fastest declining supernova-like transient, second only to the kilonova, AT2017gfo. SN2018kzr is characterized by a peak magnitude of , peak…
