TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report the results of a DECam optical follow-up of the GW151226, discovered by the Advanced LIGO detectors, starting 10 hours after the event was announced and spanning four epochs at $2-24$ days after the GW detection.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, 8.0, 24, and 70 micron images of the Crab Nebula obtained with the Spitzer Space Telescope IRAC and MIPS cameras, Low- and High-resolution Spitzer IRS spectra of selected positions within the nebula, and a near-infrared ground-based image made in the light of [Fe II]1.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors analyzed the early light curve and spectral series of a nearby Type II supernova to infer the properties of its progenitor and CSM and found that the most likely progenitors was an RSG with an extended envelope, encompassed by low-density CSM.

Late-time spectroscopy of SN 2002hh: A continued visible light echo with no shock interaction yet
TL;DR: In this article, the authors obtained deep late-time spectra with the MMT Blue Channel spectrograph to search for any spectral signatures of ongoing shock interaction, but they did not detect clear signs of strong CSM interaction, contrary to expectations based on the reported radii of the dust shell.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resolving the H-alpha-emitting Region in the Wind of Eta Carinae
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present diffraction-limited images (FWHM ~ 25 mas) with Magellan adaptive optics in two epochs, showing that Eta Carinae consistently appears 2.5 to 3 mas wider in H-alpha emission compared to the adjacent 643 nm continuum.
