Low luminosity Type II supernovae -- IV. SN 2020cxd and SN 2021aai, at the edges of the sub-luminous supernovae class

G. Valerin, M. L. Pumo, A. Pastorello +20

Photometric and spectroscopic data for two Low Luminosity Type IIP Supernovae (LL SNe IIP) are presented. SN 2020cxd reaches a peak absolute magnitude = -13.90 0.05 m…

Intermediate-luminosity red transients: Spectrophotometric properties and connection to electron-capture supernova explosions

Y. -Z. Cai, A. Pastorello, M. Fraser +56

We present the spectroscopic and photometric study of five intermediate-luminosity red transients (ILRTs), namely AT 2010dn, AT 2012jc, AT 2013la, AT 2013lb, and AT 2018aes. They s…

Luminous Red Nova AT 2019zhd, a new merger in M 31

A. Pastorello, M. Fraser, G. Valerin +20

We present the follow-up campaign of the luminous red nova (LRN) AT~2019zhd, the third event of this class observed in M 31. The object was followed by several sky surveys for abou…

The luminous red nova variety: AT 2020hat and AT 2020kog

A. Pastorello, G. Valerin, M. Fraser +32

We present the results of our monitoring campaigns of the luminous red novae (LRNe) AT 2020hat in NGC 5068 and AT 2020kog in NGC 6106. The two objects were imaged (and detected) be…

The transitional gap transient AT 2018hso: new insights on the luminous red nova phenomenon

Y-Z. Cai, A. Pastorello, M. Fraser +20

Aims: AT 2018hso is a new transient showing transitional properties between those of LRNe and the class of intermediate luminosity red transients (ILRTs) similar to SN 2008S. Throu…

The Evolution of Luminous Red Nova AT 2017jfs in NGC 4470

A. Pastorello, T. -W. Chen, Y. -Z. Cai +43

We present the results of our photometric and spectroscopic follow-up of the intermediate-luminosity optical transient AT 2017jfs. At peak, the object reaches an absolute magnitude…
