We present the spectroscopic and photometric evolution of the nearby (z = 0.059) spectroscopically confirmed type Ic supernova, SN 2010bh, associated with the soft, long-duration gamma-ray burst (X-ray flash) GRB 100316D. Intensive…
We analyze the hitherto available space-based X-ray data as well as ground-based optical data of the X-ray transient 080109/SN2008D. From the data we suggest that (i) The initial transient (\lesssim 800 sec) is attributed to the reverse…
We report the discovery by the Robotic Optical Transient Experiment (ROTSE-IIIb) telescope of SN 2008es, an overluminous supernova (SN) at z=0.205 with a peak visual magnitude of -22.2. We present multiwavelength follow-up observations with…
