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…
A search for relativistic ejecta in a sample of ZTF broad-lined Type Ic supernovae
Alessandra Corsi, Anna Y. Q. Ho, S. Bradley Cenko +23
The dividing line between gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and ordinary stripped-envelope core-collapse supernovae (SNe) is yet to be fully understood. Observationally mapping the variety o…
A radio-detected Type Ia supernova with helium-rich circumstellar material
Erik C. Kool, Joel Johansson, Jesper Sollerman +34
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are thermonuclear explosions of degenerate white dwarf (WD) stars destabilized by mass accretion from a companion star, but the nature of their progenit…
Probing the low-mass end of core-collapse supernovae using a sample of strongly-stripped Calcium-rich Type IIb Supernovae from the Zwicky Transient Facility
Kaustav K. Das, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Christoffer Fremling +23
The fate of stars in the zero-age main-sequence (ZAMS) range Msun is unclear. They could evolve to form white dwarfs or explode as electron-capture supernovae (SNe)…
The origin and evolution of the normal Type Ia SN 2018aoz with infant-phase reddening and excess emission
Yuan Qi Ni, Dae-Sik Moon, Maria R. Drout +40
SN~2018aoz is a Type Ia SN with a -band plateau and excess emission in the infant-phase light curves 1 day after first light, evidencing an over-density of surface ir…
Observations of the Very Young Type Ia Supernova 2019np with Early-excess Emission
Hanna Sai, Xiaofeng Wang, Nancy Elias-Rosa +30
Early-time radiative signals from type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) can provide important constraints on the explosion mechanism and the progenitor system. We present observations and an…
