Hidden shock powering the peak of SN 2020faa
I. Salmaso, E. Cappellaro, L. Tartaglia +9
The link between the fate of the most massive stars and the resulting supernova (SN) explosion is still a matter of debate, in major part because of the ambiguity among light-curve…
The optical light curve of GRB 221009A: the afterglow and the emerging supernova
M. D. Fulton, S. J. Smartt, L. Rhodes +46
We present extensive optical photometry of the afterglow of GRB~221009A. Our data cover \,days from the time of \textit{Swift} and \textit{Fermi} GRB detections. Photom…
Early Lightcurves of Type Ia Supernovae are Consistent with Nondegenerate Progenitor Companions
J. Burke, D. A. Howell, D. J. Sand +16
If Type Ia supernovae (SNe~Ia) result from a white dwarf being ignited by Roche lobe overflow from a nondegenerate companion, then as the supernova explosion runs into the companio…
SN2020qlb: A hydrogen-poor superluminous supernova with well-characterized light curve undulations
S. L. West, R. Lunnan, C. M. B. Omand +21
SN\,2020qlb (ZTF20abobpcb) is a hydrogen-poor superluminous supernova (SLSN-I) that is among the most luminous (maximum M mag) and that has one of the longest rise t…
An elliptical accretion disk following the tidal disruption event AT 2020zso
T. Wevers, M. Nicholl, M. Guolo +25
[Abridged] We classify AT 2020zso as a TDE based on the blackbody evolution inferred from UV/optical photometric observations, and spectral line content and evolution. We identify…
A Systematic Exploration of Kilonova Candidates from Neutron Star Mergers During the Third Gravitational Wave Observing Run
J. Rastinejad, K. Paterson, W. Fong +9
We present a comprehensive analysis of 653 optical candidate counterparts reported during the third gravitational wave (GW) observing run. Our sample concentrates on candidates fro…
