A very luminous jet from the disruption of a star by a massive black hole

Igor Andreoni, Michael W. Coughlin, Daniel A. Perley +78

Tidal disruption events (TDEs) are bursts of electromagnetic energy released when supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at the centers of galaxies violently disrupt a star that passes t…

A search for relativistic ejecta in a sample of ZTF broad-lined Type Ic supernovae

Alessandra Corsi, Anna Y. Q. Ho, S. Bradley Cenko +23

The dividing line between gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and ordinary stripped-envelope core-collapse supernovae (SNe) is yet to be fully understood. Observationally mapping the variety o…

SN 2019ehk: A Double-Peaked Ca-rich Transient with Luminous X-ray Emission and Shock-Ionized Spectral Features

Wynn V. Jacobson-Galán, Raffaella Margutti, Charles D. Kilpatrick +64

We present panchromatic observations and modeling of the Calcium-rich supernova 2019ehk in the star-forming galaxy M100 (d16.2 Mpc) starting 10 hours after explosion and c…

A non-equipartition shockwave traveling in a dense circumstellar environment around SN2020oi

Assaf Horesh, Itai Sfaradi, Mattias Ergon +34

We report the discovery and panchromatic followup observations of the young Type Ic supernova, SN2020oi, in M100, a grand design spiral galaxy at a mere distance of Mpc. We fo…

The Broad-lined Ic Supernova ZTF18aaqjovh (SN 2018bvw): An Optically-discovered Engine-driven Supernova Candidate with Luminous Radio Emission

Anna Y. Q. Ho, Alessandra Corsi, S. Bradley Cenko +23

We present ZTF18aaqjovh (SN 2018bvw), a high-velocity ("broad-lined") stripped-envelope (Type Ic) supernova (Ic-BL SN) discovered in the Zwicky Transient Facility one-day cadence s…

Discovery of an intermediate-luminosity red transient in M51 and its likely dust-obscured, infrared-variable progenitor

Jacob E. Jencson, Scott M. Adams, Howard E. Bond +49

We present the discovery of an optical transient (OT) in Messier 51, designated M51 OT2019-1 (also ZTF19aadyppr, AT 2019abn, ATLAS19bzl), by the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF). Th…
