A Common Origin of Normal Type Ia Supernovae Suggested by the Photometric Diversity

Weiyu Wu, Ji-an Jiang, Dezheng Meng +16

In recent years, with an increasing number of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) discovered soon after their explosions, a non-negligible fraction of SNe Ia with early-excess emissions (E…

Luminosity Functions of the Host Galaxies of Supernova

Zhuoxi Liang, Nao Suzuki, Mamoru Doi +2

We present the luminosity functions and stellar mass functions of supernova (SN) host galaxies and test if they differ from the functions of normal field galaxies. We utilize homog…

Initial Flash and Spectral Formation of Type Ia Supernovae with An Envelope: Applications to Over-luminous SNe Ia

Keiichi Maeda, Ji-an Jiang, Mamoru Doi +2

Over-luminous type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) show peculiar observational features, for which an explosion of a super-massive white dwarf (WD) beyond the classical Chandrasekhar-limiti…

Video Observations of Tiny Near-Earth Objects with Tomo-e Gozen

Jin Beniyama, Shigeyuki Sako, Ryou Ohsawa +20

We report the results of video observations of tiny (diameter less than 100 m) near-Earth objects (NEOs) with Tomo-e Gozen on the Kiso 105 cm Schmidt telescope. A rotational period…

Fast optical flares from M dwarfs detected by a one-second-cadence survey with Tomo-e Gozen

Masataka Aizawa, Kojiro Kawana, Kazumi Kashiyama +18

We report a one-second-cadence wide-field survey for M-dwarf flares using the Tomo-e Gozen camera mounted on the Kiso Schmidt telescope. We detect 22 flares from M3-M5 dwarfs with…

MUSSES2020J: The Earliest Discovery of a Fast Blue Ultraluminous Transient at Redshift 1.063

Ji-an Jiang, Naoki Yasuda, Keiichi Maeda +22

In this Letter, we report the discovery of an ultraluminous fast-evolving transient in rest-frame UV wavelengths, MUSSES2020J, soon after its occurrence by using the Hyper Suprime-…
