TL;DR: In this article, a series of spectroscopic observations of the SLSN-I iPTF16eh was presented, which reveal both absorption and time and frequency-variable emission in the Mg II resonance doublet.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported a search for dirty fireballs with an initial Lorentz factor smaller than that of classical Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs), appearing as transients that fade overnight.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors constructed a Hubble diagram from NIR observations to constrain the dark energy equation-of-state parameter, w, and analyzed the dependence of the full set of Hubble residuals on the SN Ia host galaxy mass and found 1 + w = −0.17 ± 0.12 (statistical + systematic errors).

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed high-quality photometry, low- and high-resolution spectroscopy, and spectropolarimetry, finding that SN 2016coj is a spectroscopically normal supernova, but the velocity of Si II λ6355 around peak brightness (~12,600 km s^(-1)) is a bit higher than that of typical normal SNe.

TL;DR: In this paper, the first spectroscopically confirmed hydrogen-free superluminous supernova (SLSN-I) at redshift z = 2.06 was discovered by the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Supernova Program, with followup photometric data from the Hubble Space Telescope, Gemini, and the European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope supplementing the DES data.
