Panchromatic JWST Observations and Models of the Dim Type Iax Supernova 2024vjm at 200 days

E Baron, J. M. DerKacy, C. Ashall +23

We report JWST spectra and photometry of the underluminous SN Iax 2024vjm obtained 202.8 restframe days post-explosion. The spectrum exhibits a rich set of forbidden lines from low…

The Production of Electron-Capture Elements in Thermonuclear Supernovae: Theory vs. Observations

S. Shiber, P. Hoeflich, T. Mera +9

Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) explosively destroy carbon-oxygen white dwarfs (WDs) in multiple stellar systems. They produce approximately 50% of the iron-group elements in the Unive…

SN 2019vxm: A luminous and long-lived Type IIn supernova with early flash-ionisation features

Y. -Z. Cai, A. Pastorello, T. J. Moriya +38

We present the photometric and spectroscopic analysis of the luminous and long-lasting Type IIn supernova (SN) 2019vxm. The SN reaches a peak V-band absolute magnitude of MV = -20.…

JWST Observations of SN 2024ggi II: NIRSpec Spectroscopy and CO Modeling at 285 and 385 Days Past the Explosion

T. Mera, C. Ashall, P. Hoeflich +20

We present James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) NIRSpec observations of SN~2024ggi, spanning wavelengths of 1.7--5.5 micron at +285.51 and +385.27 days post-explosion. These nebular s…

JWST Observations of SN 2023ixf II: The Panchromatic Evolution Between 250 and 720 Days After the Explosion

K. Medler, C. Ashall, P. Hoeflich +60

We present the nebular phase spectroscopic and photometric observations of the nearby hydrogen-rich core-collapse supernova (CC-SN) 2023ixf, obtained through our JWST programs. The…

JWST Observations of SN 2024ggi I: Interpretation and Model Comparison of the Type II Supernova 2024ggi at 55 days Past Explosion

E. Baron, C. Ashall, J. M. DerKacy +40

We present panchromatic 0.4-21 microns observations of the nearby (about 7.2 Mpc) Type II supernova 2024ggi, obtained during the plateau phase at about 55 d past explosion. Our dat…

Very Late-Time JWST and Keck Spectra of the Oxygen-Rich Supernova 1995N

Geoffrey C. Clayton, R. Wesson, Ori D. Fox +43

We present new {\it JWST}/MIRI MRS and Keck spectra of SN 1995N obtained in 2022--2023, more than 10,000 days after the supernova (SN) explosion. These spectra are among the latest…

Numerical and Physical Challenges to Nebular Spectroscopy in Thermonuclear Supernovae

P. Hoeflich, E. Fereidouni, A. Fisher +8

Thermodynamical explosions of White Dwarfs (WD)are one of the keys to high precision cosmology. Nebular spectra, namely mid-infrared (MIR) with JWST are an effective tool to probe…

Using nebular near-IR spectroscopy to measure asymmetric chemical distributions in 2003fg-like thermonuclear supernovae

J. O'Hora, C. Ashall, M. Shahbandeh +10

We present an analysis of three near-infrared (NIR; 1.0-2.4 m) spectra of the SN 2003fg-like/"super-Chandrasekhar" type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) SN 2009dc, SN 2020hvf, and SN 2022…

A JWST Medium Resolution MIRI Spectrum and Models of the Type Ia supernova 2021aefx at +415 d

C. Ashall, P. Hoeflich, E. Baron +39

We present a JWST MIRI/MRS spectrum (5-27 m) of the Type Ia supernova (SN Ia), SN 2021aefx at days past -band maximum. The spectrum, which was obtained during t…

Photometric and Spectroscopic Properties of Type Ia Supernova 2018oh with Early Excess Emission from the 2 Observations

W. Li, X. Wang, J. Vinkó +160

Supernova (SN) 2018oh (ASASSN-18bt) is the first spectroscopically-confirmed type Ia supernova (SN Ia) observed in the field. The data revealed an excess emission…
