Line Polarization of Si II 6355 Å in Type Ia Supernovae: A New Statistical Approach to Probe the Explosion Physics and Diversity
Aleksandar Cikota, Peter Hoeflich, Dietrich Baade +6
Spectropolarimetry provides a unique probe of ejecta asphericities, offering direct insights into the underlying explosion physics of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). We analyze the st…
An axisymmetric shock breakout indicated by prompt polarized emission from the type II supernova 2024ggi
Yi Yang, Xudong Wen, Lifan Wang +18
The death of massive stars is triggered by an infall-induced bounce shock that disrupts the star. How such a shock is launched and propagates through the star is a decade-long puzz…
Hidden massive eclipsing binaries in red supergiant systems: The hierarchical triple system KQ Puppis and other candidates
D. Jadlovský, L. Molnár, A. Ercolino +26
The majority of massive stars are part of binary systems that may interact during their evolution. However, not many RSGs are known binaries, and only a few have constrained orbita…
