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…
Optical studies of a bright Type Iax supernova SN 2020rea
Mridweeka Singh, Kuntal Misra, Devendra K. Sahu +14
We present optical photometric and spectroscopic analysis of a Type Iax supernova (SN) 2020rea situated at the brighter luminosity end of Type Iax supernovae (SNe). The light curve…
The fast evolving type Ib Supernova SN 2015dj in NGC 7371
Mridweeka Singh, Kuntal Misra, Stefano Valenti +17
We present the detailed optical evolution of a type Ib SN 2015dj in NGC 7371, using data spanning up to 170 days after discovery. SN 2015dj shares similarity in light curve…
Luminous Red Nova AT 2019zhd, a new merger in M 31
A. Pastorello, M. Fraser, G. Valerin +20
We present the follow-up campaign of the luminous red nova (LRN) AT~2019zhd, the third event of this class observed in M 31. The object was followed by several sky surveys for abou…
SN 2019muj -- a well-observed Type Iax supernova that bridges the luminosity gap of the class
Barnabás Barna, Tamás Szalai, Saurabh W. Jha +38
We present early-time ( days) observations of SN 2019muj (= ASASSN-19tr), one of the best-observed members of the peculiar SN Iax class. Ultraviolet and optical photometri…
The luminous red nova variety: AT 2020hat and AT 2020kog
A. Pastorello, G. Valerin, M. Fraser +32
We present the results of our monitoring campaigns of the luminous red novae (LRNe) AT 2020hat in NGC 5068 and AT 2020kog in NGC 6106. The two objects were imaged (and detected) be…
