Prospects for Time-Domain and Multi-Messenger Science with eXTP
Shu-Xu Yi, Wen Zhao, Ren-Xin Xu +75
In this new era of time-domain and multi-messenger astronomy, various new transients and new phenomena are constantly being discovered thanks to the rapid advances in observations,…
The Type I Superluminous Supernova Catalog I: Light Curve Properties, Models, and Catalog Description
Sebastian Gomez, Matt Nicholl, Edo Berger +25
We present the most comprehensive catalog to date of Type I Superluminous Supernovae (SLSNe), a class of stripped envelope supernovae (SNe) characterized by exceptionally high lumi…
Observations of the Very Young Type Ia Supernova 2019np with Early-excess Emission
Hanna Sai, Xiaofeng Wang, Nancy Elias-Rosa +30
Early-time radiative signals from type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) can provide important constraints on the explosion mechanism and the progenitor system. We present observations and an…
Detailed spectrophotometric analysis of the superluminous and fast evolving SN 2019neq
Achille Fiore, Stefano Benetti, Leonardo Tartaglia +24
SN 2019neq was a very fast evolving superluminous supernova. At a redshift z=0.1059, its peak absolute magnitude was -21.5+/-0.2 mag in g band. In this work, we present data and an…
Exploring GRBs and supernovae connection: does a superluminous hypernova population exist?
Achille Fiore, Ludovica Crosato Menegazzi, Giulia Stratta
Observations of several gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) that are temporally and spatially compatible with energetic supernovae (hypernovae) has established their common origin. In one case…
SN 2017gci: a nearby Type I Superluminous Supernova with a bumpy tail
Achille Fiore, Ting-Wan Chen, Anders Jerkstrand +26
We present and discuss the optical spectro-photometric observations of the nearby (z=0.087) Type I superluminous supernova (SLSN I) SN 2017gci, whose peak K-corrected absolute magn…
Photometric and spectroscopic evolution of the peculiar Type IIn SN 2012ab
Anjasha Gangopadhyay, Massimo Turatto, Stefano Benetti +15
We present an extensive ( 1200 d) photometric and spectroscopic monitoring of the Type IIn supernova (SN) 2012ab. After a rapid initial rise leading to a bright maximum (M$_{…
