- Grant note
- Time domain research by the University of Arizona team and D.J.S. is supported by NSF grants AST-1821987, 1813466, 1908972, & 2108032, and by the Heising-Simons Foundation under grant #20201864. This publication was made possible through the support of an LSSTC Catalyst Fellowship to K.A.B., funded through grant 62192 from the John Templeton Foundation to LSST Corporation. The opinions expressed in this publication are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of LSSTC or the John Templeton Foundation. Observations reported here were obtained at the MMT Observatory, a joint facility of the University of Arizona and the Smithsonian Institution. This paper uses data taken with the MODS spectrographs built with funding from NSF grant AST-9987045 and the NSF Telescope System Instrumentation Program (TSIP), with additional funds from the Ohio Board of Regents and the Ohio State University Office of Research. This research has made use of the NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS) Bibliographic Services, and the NASA/IPAC Infrared Science Archive (IRSA), which is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and operated by the California Institute of Technology. This research made use of Photutils, an Astropy package for detection and photometry of astronomical sources (Bradley et al. 2019). This work made use of data supplied by the UK Swift Science Data Centre at the University of Leicester. The DELVE project is partially supported by the NASA Fermi Guest Investigator Program Cycle 9 No. 91201.

Based on observations at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory, NSF's NOIRLab (NOIRLab Prop. ID 2022B-827437; PI: G. Hosseinzadeh; 2019A-0305; PI: A. Drlica-Wagner), which is managed by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy (AURA) under a cooperative agreement with the National Science Foundation. Based in part on observations obtained at the Southern Astrophysical Research (SOAR) telescope, which is a joint project of the Ministério da Ciência, Tecnologia e Inovações (MCTI/LNA) do Brasil, the US National Science Foundation's NOIRLab, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC), and Michigan State University (MSU). The observations reported here were obtained in part at the MMT Observatory, a facility operated jointly by the Smithsonian Institution and the University of Arizona. MMT telescope time was granted by NSF's NOIRLab, through the Telescope System Instrumentation Program (TSIP). TSIP was funded by NSF (NOIRLab Prop. ID UAO-S143-22B ; PI: S. Wyatt). This research is based on observations made with the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope obtained from the Space Telescope Science Institute, which is operated by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc., under NASA contract NAS 5-26555. These observations are associated with program 17264. The authors acknowledge the team led by PI A. J. Levan for developing their observing program with a zero-exclusive-access period. The Low Resolution Spectrograph 2 (LRS2) was developed and funded by the University of Texas at Austin McDonald Observatory and Department of Astronomy, and by Pennsylvania State University. We thank the Leibniz-Institut fur Astrophysik Potsdam (AIP) and the Institut fur Astrophysik Goettingen (IAG) for their contributions to the construction of the integral field units. Based on observations obtained with the Hobby–Eberly Telescope (HET), which is a joint project of the University of Texas at Austin, the Pennsylvania State University, Ludwig-Maximillians-Universitaet Muenchen, and Georg-August Universitaet Goettingen. The HET is named in honor of its principal benefactors, William P. Hobby and Robert E. Eberly. This research has made use of the CfA Supernova Archive, which is funded in part by the National Science Foundation through grant AST 0907903. This work makes use of data taken with the Las Cumbres Observatory global telescope network. The LCO group is supported by NSF grants 1911225 and 1911151. J.E.A. and C.E.M.V. are supported by the international Gemini Observatory, a program of NSF's NOIRLab, which is managed by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy (AURA) under a cooperative agreement with the National Science Foundation, on behalf of the Gemini partnership of Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Chile, the Republic of Korea, and the United States of America. J.A.C.-B. acknowledges support from FONDECYT Regular No. 1220083.
