This overview paper describes the legacy prospect and discovery potential of the Dark
Energy Survey (DES) beyond cosmological studies, illustrating it with examples from the …

Over a decade ago, a group of supernova explosions with peak luminosities far exceeding
(often by> 100 times) those of normal events has been identified. These superluminous …

Tidal disruption events (TDEs) offer a unique way to study dormant black holes. While the
number of observed TDEs has grown thanks to the emergence of wide-field surveys in the …

We present a public catalog of transients from the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) Bright
Transient Survey, a magnitude-limited (m< 19 mag in either the g or r filter) survey for …

Abstract The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF), a public–private enterprise, is a new time-
domain survey employing a dedicated camera on the Palomar 48-inch Schmidt telescope …

Nucleosynthesis, light curves, explosion energies, and remnant masses are calculated for a
grid of supernovae (SNe) resulting from massive stars with solar metallicity and masses from …

Subarcsecond localization of the repeating fast radio burst FRB 121102 revealed its
coincidence with a dwarf host galaxy and a steady (" quiescent") nonthermal radio source …

We present the first extensive radio to γ-ray observations of a fast-rising blue optical
transient, AT 2018cow, over its first∼ 100 days. AT 2018cow rose over a few days to a peak …

We present the results of a Palomar Transient Factory (PTF) archival search for blue
transients that lie in the magnitude range between" normal" core-collapse and …

Abstract The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) is performing a three-day cadence survey of the
visible northern sky (∼ 3π) with newly found transient candidates announced via public …
