The Lick AGN Monitoring Project: Broad-Line Region Radii and Black Hole Masses from Reverberation Mapping of Hbeta (2009)

Bentz, Misty C., Walsh, Jonelle L., Barth, Aaron J., Baliber, Nairn, Bennert, Nicola, Canalizo, Gabriela, ...

We have recently completed a 64-night spectroscopic monitoring campaign at the Lick Observatory 3-m Shane telescope with the aim of measuring the masses of the black holes in 12 nearby (z < 0.05)...

SN 2008S: A Cool Super-Eddington Wind in a Supernova Impostor (2008)

Smith, Nathan, Ganeshalingam, Mohan, Li, Weidong, Chornock, Ryan, Steele, Thea N., Silverman, Jeffrey M., ...

We present visual-wavelength photometry and spectroscopy of SN2008S. Based on the relatively low peak luminosity for a supernova (SN) of M_R = -13.9 mag and moderate outflow speeds of \la 600 km/s...

First Results from the Lick AGN Monitoring Project: The Mass of the Black Hole in Arp 151 (2008)

Bentz, Misty C., Walsh, Jonelle L., Barth, Aaron J., Baliber, Nairn, Bennert, Nicola, Canalizo, Gabriela, ...

We have recently completed a 64-night spectroscopic monitoring campaign at the Lick Observatory 3-m Shane telescope with the aim of measuring the masses of the black holes in 13 nearby (z < 0.05)...

Coronal lines and dust formation in SN 2005ip: Not the brightest, but the hottest Type IIn supernova (2008)

Smith, Nathan, Silverman, Jeffrey M., Chornock, Ryan, Filippenko, Alexei V., Wang, Xiaofeng, Li, Weidong, ...

We present optical photometry and spectroscopy of SN2005ip for the first 3yr after discovery, showing an underlying Type II-L SN interacting with a steady wind to yield an unusual Type IIn spectrum....
