Journal ArticleDOI

SUPPLEMENT: "LOCALIZATION and BROADBAND FOLLOW-UP of the GRAVITATIONAL-WAVE TRANSIENT GW150914" (2016, ApJL, 826, L13)

B. P. Abbott, +1622 more
TL;DR: Abbott et al. as mentioned in this paper compared the four probability sky maps produced for the gravitational-wave transient GW150914, and provided additional details of the EM follow-up observations that were performed in the different bands.
Journal ArticleDOI

First-year spectroscopy for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II supernova survey

Chen Zheng, +88 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented spectroscopy of supernovae (SNe) discovered in the first season of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II SN Survey, with a particular focus on SNe Ia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dust Echoes from Gamma-Ray Bursts.

TL;DR: In this article, an alternative explanation for the deviation from the power-law decline of the optical flux observed in GRB 970228 and GRB 980326 has been proposed, based on the scattering of a prompt optical burst by 0.1-1 pc from the burst.
Journal ArticleDOI

Keck Spectroscopy of the Gravitational Lens System PG 1115+080: Redshifts of the Lensing Galaxies.

TL;DR: The authors reported accurate redshifts for all four galaxies and showed that they belong to a single group at z_d = 0.311, and discussed implications for the existing lens models and derived H_0 = 52 +/- 14 km/s/Mpc.
