Supernova 2014C: ongoing interaction with extended circumstellar material with silicate dust

Samaporn Tinyanont, Ryan M Lau, Mansi M Kasliwal +8

Supernova (SN) 2014C is a unique explosion where a seemingly typical hydrogen-poor stripped envelope SN started to interact with a dense, hydrogen-rich circumstellar medium (CSM) a…

Achieving a Spectropolarimetric Precision Better than 0.1% in the Near-Infrared with WIRC+Pol

Samaporn Tinyanont, Maxwell Millar-Blanchaer, Nemanja Jovanovic +7

WIRC+Pol is a near-infrared low-resolution spectropolarimeter on the 200-inch Telescope at Palomar Observatory. The instrument utilizes a polarization grating to perform polarimetr…

Discovery of an intermediate-luminosity red transient in M51 and its likely dust-obscured, infrared-variable progenitor

Jacob E. Jencson, Scott M. Adams, Howard E. Bond +49

We present the discovery of an optical transient (OT) in Messier 51, designated M51 OT2019-1 (also ZTF19aadyppr, AT 2019abn, ATLAS19bzl), by the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF). Th…

Supernova 2017eaw: molecule and dust formation from infrared observations

Samaporn Tinyanont, Mansi M Kasliwal, Kelsie Krafton +15

We present infrared (IR) photometry and spectroscopy of the Type II-P SN 2017eaw and its progenitor in the nearby galaxy NGC 6946. Progenitor observations in the Ks band in 4 epoch…
