SN 2010ay is a luminous and broad-lined type Ic supernova within a low-metallicity host galaxy

We report on our serendipitous pre-discovery detection and follow-up observations of the broad-lined Type Ic supernova (SN Ic) 2010ay at z = 0.067 imaged by the Pan-STARRS1 3p survey just ~4 days after explosion. The supernova (SN) had a peak luminosity, MR –20.2 mag, significantly more luminous th...
