Fading Echoes of Interaction: Probing Centuries of Preexplosion Mass-Loss in Four Type IIn Supernovae
Elizabeth Hillenkamp, Raphael Baer-Way, Poonam Chandra +6
Supernovae characterized by enduring narrow optical hydrogen emission lines (SNe IIn) are believed to result primarily from the core-collapse of massive stars undergoing sustained…
A Multiwavelength Autopsy of the Interacting IIn Supernova 2020ywx: Tracing its Progenitor Mass-Loss History for 100 Years before Death
Raphael Baer-Way, Poonam Chandra, Maryam Modjaz +31
While the subclass of interacting supernovae with narrow hydrogen emission lines (SNe IIn) consists of some of the longest-lasting and brightest SNe ever discovered, their progenit…
Dinosaur in a Haystack : X-ray View of the Entrails of SN 2023ixf and the Radio Afterglow of Its Interaction with the Medium Spawned by the Progenitor Star (Paper 1)
A. J. Nayana, Raffaella Margutti, Eli Wiston +24
We present the results from our extensive hard-to-soft X-ray (NuSTAR, Swift-XRT, XMM-Newton, Chandra) and meter-to-mm wave radio (GMRT, VLA, NOEMA) monitoring campaign of the very…
Chandra's insights into SN 2023ixf
Poonam Chandra, Roger A. Chevalier, Keiichi Maeda +2
We report Chandra-ACIS observations of SN 2023ixf in M101 on day 13 and 86 since the explosion. The X-rays in both epochs are characterized by high temperature plasma from the forw…
Bridging between type IIb and Ib supernovae: SN IIb 2022crv with a very thin Hydrogen envelope
Anjasha Gangopadhyay, Keiichi Maeda, Avinash Singh +26
We present optical, near-infrared, and radio observations of supernova (SN) SN~IIb 2022crv. We show that it retained a very thin H envelope and transitioned from a SN~IIb to a SN~I…
Three-dimensional distribution of ejecta in Supernova 1987A at 10 000 days
J. Larsson, C. Fransson, J. Spyromilio +19
Due to its proximity, SN 1987A offers a unique opportunity to directly observe the geometry of a stellar explosion as it unfolds. Here we present spectral and imaging observations…
The signature of the central engine in the weakest relativistic explosions: GRB100316D
R. Margutti, A. M. Soderberg, M. H. Wieringa +9
We present late-time radio and X-ray observations of the nearby sub-energetic Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB)100316D associated with supernova (SN) 2010bh. Our broad-band analysis constrains…
Inverse Compton X-ray Emission from Supernovae with Compact Progenitors: Application to SN2011fe
R. Margutti, A. M. Soderberg, L. Chomiuk +35
We present a generalized analytic formalism for the inverse Compton X-ray emission from hydrogen-poor supernovae and apply this framework to SN2011fe using Swift-XRT, UVOT and Chan…
EVLA Observations of the Radio Evolution of SN 2011dh
M. I. Krauss, A. M. Soderberg, L. Chomiuk +6
We report on Expanded Very Large Array (EVLA) observations of the Type IIb supernova 2011dh, performed over the first 100 days of its evolution and spanning 1-40 GHz in frequency.…
Panchromatic Observations of SN 2011dh Point to a Compact Progenitor Star
Alicia M. Soderberg, R. Margutti, B. A. Zauderer +32
We report the discovery and detailed monitoring of X-ray emission associated with the Type IIb SN 2011dh using data from the Swift and Chandra satellites, placing it among the best…
The High-Metallicity Explosion Environment of the Relativistic Supernova 2009bb
E. M. Levesque, A. M. Soderberg, R. J. Foley +23
We investigate the environment of the nearby (d ~ 40Mpc) broad-lined Type Ic supernova SN 2009bb. This event was observed to produce a relativistic outflow likely powered by a cent…
