The BigBoss Experiment

David J. Schlegel, +142 more
TL;DR: BigBOSS as discussed by the authors is a ground-based dark energy experiment to study baryon acoustic oscillations and the growth of structure with a wide-area galaxy and quasar redshift survey over 14,000 square degrees.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence for Late-stage Eruptive Mass-loss in the Progenitor to SN2018gep, a Broad-lined Ic Supernova: Pre-explosion Emission and a Rapidly Rising Luminous Transient

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented detailed observations of ZTF18abukavn (SN2018gep), a broad-lined stripped-envelope supernova (Ic-BL SN) discovered in high-cadence data from the Zwicky Transient Facility as a rapidly rising and luminous transient.
ReportDOI

Catching Element Formation In The Act ; The Case for a New MeV Gamma-Ray Mission: Radionuclide Astronomy in the 2020s

F. X. Timmes, +218 more
TL;DR: Gamma-ray astronomy explores the most energetic photons in nature to address some of the most pressing puzzles in contemporary astrophysics as discussed by the authors, and it encompasses a wide range of objects and phenomena: stars, supernovae, novae, neutron stars, stellar-mass black holes, nucleosynthesis, the interstellar medium, cosmic rays and relativistic-particle acceleration.
