The Birth of a Relativistic Jet Following the Disruption of a Star by a Cosmological Black Hole
Dheeraj R. Pasham, Matteo Lucchini, Tanmoy Laskar +63
A black hole can launch a powerful relativistic jet after it tidally disrupts a star. If this jet fortuitously aligns with our line of sight, the overall brightness is Doppler boos…
Revealing the progenitor of SN 2021zby through analysis of the shock-cooling light curve
Qinan Wang, Patrick Armstrong, Yossef Zenati +34
We present early observations and analysis of the double-peaked Type IIb supernova (SN IIb) 2021zby. captured the prominent early shock cooling peak of SN 2021zby within the…
HostPhot: global and local photometry of galaxies hosting supernovae or other transients
Tomás E. Müller-Bravo, Lluís Galbany
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) have assumed a fundamental role as cosmological distance indicators since the discovery of the accelerating expansion rate of the universe. Correlations…
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…
Weak Mass Loss from the Red Supergiant Progenitor of the Type II SN 2021yja
Griffin Hosseinzadeh, Charles D. Kilpatrick, Yize Dong +56
We present high-cadence optical, ultraviolet (UV), and near-infrared data of the nearby ( Mpc) Type II supernova (SN) 2021yja. Many Type II SNe show signs of interactio…
