A 9-Month Hubble Space Telescope Near-UV Survey of M87. II. A Strongly Enhanced Nova Rate near the Jet of M87
Alec M. Lessing, Michael M. Shara, Rebekah Hounsell +3
The 135 classical novae that we have discovered in M87 with two imaging surveys appear to be strongly concentrated along that galaxy's jet. Detail…
A 9-Month Hubble Space Telescope Near-UV Survey of M87. I. Light and Color Curves of 94 Novae, and a Re-determination of the Nova Rate
Michael M. Shara, Alec M. Lessing, Rebekah Hounsell +10
M87 has been monitored with a cadence of 5 days over a 9 month-long span through the near-ultraviolet (NUV:F275W) and optical (F606W) filters of the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) of t…
Roman CCS White Paper: Measuring Type Ia Supernovae Discovered in the Roman High Latitude Time Domain Survey
Rebekah Hounsell, Dan Scolnic, Dillon Brout +14
We motivate the cosmological science case of measuring Type Ia supernovae with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope as part of the High Latitude Time Domain Survey. We discuss pre…
A Comprehensive Investigation of Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglows Detected by TESS
Hugh Roxburgh, Ryan Ridden-Harper, Zachary G. Lane +9
Gamma-ray bursts produce afterglows that can be observed across the electromagnetic spectrum and can provide insight into the nature of their progenitors. While most telescopes tha…
Roman CCS White Paper: Options to Increase the Coverage Area of Prism Time Series in the High-Latitude Time Domain Core Community Survey
Benjamin Rose, Sebastian Gomez, Rebekah Hounsell +4
The current reference High-latitude time domain survey increases the completeness of transients with prism temporal time series data by adjusting the ratio of prism-to-imaging time…
Roman CCS White Paper: Considerations for Selecting Fields for the Roman High-latitude Time Domain Core Community Survey
Benjamin Rose, Greg Aldering, Rebekah Hounsell +6
In this white paper, we review five top considerations for selecting locations of the fields of the Roman High-latitude Time Domain Survey. Based on these considerations, we recomm…
Roman CCS White Paper: Optimizing the HLTDS Cadence at Fixed Depth
David Rubin, Ben Rose, Rebekah Hounsell +4
The current proposal for the High Latitude Time Domain Survey (HLTDS) is two tiers (wide and deep) of multi-band imaging and prism spectroscopy with a cadence of five days (Rose et…
Roman CCS White Paper: Balanced Prism Plus Filter Cadence in the High Latitude Time Domain Survey Core Community Survey
Greg Aldering, David Rubin, Benjamin Rose +3
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope's (RST) Wide Field Imager (WFI) is equipped with a slitless prism that can be used for spectroscopic discovery and follow-up of explosive tran…
