The Cow: discovery of a luminous, hot and rapidly evolving transient
S. J. Prentice, K. Maguire, S. J. Smartt +27
We present the ATLAS discovery and initial analysis of the first 18 days of the unusual transient event, ATLAS18qqn/AT2018cow. It is characterized by a high peak luminosity (…
SN 2017ens: The Metamorphosis of a Luminous Broad-lined Type Ic Supernova into an SN IIn
T. -W. Chen, C. Inserra, M. Fraser +46
We present observations of supernova (SN) 2017ens, discovered by the ATLAS survey and identified as a hot blue object through the GREAT program. The redshift z=0.1086 implies a pea…
A nearby superluminous supernova with a long pre-maximum 'plateau' and strong CII features
J. P. Anderson, P. J. Pessi, L. Dessart +63
Super-luminous supernovae (SLSNe) are rare events defined as being significantly more luminous than normal terminal stellar explosions. The source of the extra powering needed to a…
Constraints on the neutron star equation of state from AT2017gfo using radiative transfer simulations
Michael W. Coughlin, Tim Dietrich, Zoheyr Doctor +8
The detection of the binary neutron star GW170817 together with the observation of electromagnetic counterparts across the entire spectrum inaugurated a new era of multi-messenger…
