Rapidly evolving transients in the Dark Energy Survey
Rapidly evolving transients in the Dark Energy Survey
We present the results of a search for rapidly evolving transients in the Dark Energy Survey Supernova Programme. These events are characterized by fast light-curve evolution (rise to peak in ≲10 d and exponential decline in ≲30 d after peak). We discovered 72 events, including 37 transients with a spectroscopic …
