Best practices in software citation
Phil R. Van-Lane, Floor S. Broekgaarden, Daniel S. Katz +11
Software is both a foundational tool and a primary output of modern computational research, yet citation practices for software remain inconsistent, incomplete, and rarely machine-…
Traces of Helium Detected in Type Ic Supernova 2014L
Jing Lu, Wolfgang E. Kerzendorf, John T. O'Brien +6
The absence of helium features in optical spectra is one of the classification criteria for Type Ic supernovae (SNe Ic). However, it is highly debated whether helium is truly absen…
Effect of positronium on the -ray spectra and energy deposition in Type Ia supernovae
Anirban Dutta, Andrew Fullard, Wolfgang Kerzendorf +5
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are powered by the radioactive decay of isotopes such as Ni and Co, making their -ray spectra useful probes of the explosion mechanism…
Analyzing Stellar and Interstellar Contributions to Polarization: Modeling Approaches for Hot Stars
R Ignace, A G Fullard, G V Panopoulou +3
Linear polarimetry of unresolved stars is a powerful method for discerning or constraining the geometry of a source and its environment, since spherical sources produce no net pola…

1991T-Like Type Ia Supernovae as an Extension of the Normal Population
John T. O'Brien, Wolfgang E. Kerzendorf, Andrew Fullard +7
Type Ia supernovae remain poorly understood despite decades of investigation. Massive computationally intensive hydrodynamic simulations have been developed and run to model an eve…
No plateau observed in late-time near-infrared observations of the underluminous Type Ia supernova 2021qvv
O. Graur, E. Padilla Gonzalez, J. Burke +23
Near-infrared (NIR) observations of normal Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) obtained between 150 to 500 d past maximum light reveal the existence of an extended plateau. Here, we presen…
StaNdaRT: A repository of standardized test models and outputs for supernova radiative transfer
Stéphane Blondin, Sergei Blinnikov, Fionntan P. Callan +26
We present the first results of a comprehensive supernova (SN) radiative-transfer (RT) code-comparison initiative (StaNdaRT), where the emission from the same set of standardized t…
UV Spectropolarimetry with Polstar: Massive Star Binary Colliding Winds
Nicole St-Louis, Kenneth Gayley, D. John Hillier +13
The winds of massive stars are important for their direct impact on the interstellar medium, and for their influence on the final state of a star prior to it exploding as a superno…
Searching for a Hypervelocity White Dwarf Companion: A Proper Motion Survey of SN 1006
Joshua V. Shields, Wolfgang Kerzendorf, Matthew W. Hosek +7
Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) are securely understood to come from the thermonuclear explosion of a white dwarf as a result of binary interaction, but the nature of that binary inter…
Modeling the Optical to Ultraviolet Polarimetric Variability from Thomson Scattering in Colliding Wind Binaries
Richard Ignace, Andrew Fullard, Manisha Shrestha +5
Massive star binaries are critical laboratories for measuring masses and stellar wind mass-loss rates. A major challenge is inferring viewing inclination and extracting information…
New mass estimates for massive binary systems: a probabilistic approach using polarimetric radiative transfer
Andrew G. Fullard, John T. O'Brien, Wolfgang E. Kerzendorf +4
Understanding the evolution of massive binary stars requires accurate estimates of their masses. This understanding is critically important because massive star evolution can poten…
