A flash of polarized optical light points to an aspherical "cow"

J. R. Maund, P. A. Hoeflich, I. A. Steele +8

The astronomical transient AT2018cow is the closest example of the new class of luminous, fast blue optical transients (FBOTs). Liverpool Telescope RINGO3 observations of AT2018cow…

RINGO3 polarimetry of very young ZTF supernovae

J. R. Maund, Y. Yang, I. A. Steele +13

The early phases of the observed evolution of the supernovae (SNe) are expected to be dominated by the shock breakout and ``flash" ionization of the surrounding circumstellar mediu…

The shape of SN 1993J re-analyzed

H. F. Stevance, D. Baade, J. R. Bruten +8

SN 1993J is one of the best studied Type IIb supernovae. Spectropolarimetric data analyses were published over two decades ago at a time when the field of supernova spectropolarime…

The 3D shape of Type IIb SN 2011hs

H. F. Stevance, J. R. Maund, D. Baade +10

We observed seven epochs of spectropolarimetry in optical wavelengths for the Type IIb SN 2011hs, ranging from -3 to +40 days with respect to V -band maximum. A high degree of inte…

A counterexample to a conjecture of Larman and Rogers on sets avoiding distance 1

Fernando Mário de Oliveira Filho, Frank Vallentin

For we construct a measurable subset of the unit ball in that does not contain pairs of points at distance 1 and whose volume is greater than ti…

Mapping Circumstellar Matter with Polarized Light - The Case of Supernova 2014J in M82

Yi Yang, Lifan Wang, Dietrich Baade +11

Optical polarimetry is an effective way of probing the environment of supernova for dust. We acquired linear HST ACS/WFC polarimetry in bands , , and of the s…
