Serendipitous detection of the dusty Type IIL SN 1980K with JWST/MIRI

Szanna Zsíros, Tamás Szalai, Ilse De Looze +39

We present mid-infrared (mid-IR) imaging of the Type IIL supernova (SN) 1980K with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) more than 40 yr post-explosion. SN 1980K, located in the ne…

Very late-time spectroscopy of SN 2009ip: Constraints on the ongoing H emission

Thallis Pessi, Jose L. Prieto, Luc Dessart

The peculiar supernova (SN) 2009ip is an ambiguous event that spurred many questions regarding its true origins. Here, we present very late-time spectroscopic and photometric obser…

Ground-based and JWST Observations of SN 2022pul: I. Unusual Signatures of Carbon, Oxygen, and Circumstellar Interaction in a Peculiar Type Ia Supernova

Matthew R. Siebert, Lindsey A. Kwok, Joel Johansson +79

Nebular-phase observations of peculiar Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) provide important constraints on progenitor scenarios and explosion dynamics for both these rare SNe and the more…

Ground-based and JWST Observations of SN 2022pul: II. Evidence from Nebular Spectroscopy for a Violent Merger in a Peculiar Type-Ia Supernova

Lindsey A. Kwok, Matthew R. Siebert, Joel Johansson +78

We present an analysis of ground-based and JWST observations of SN~2022pul, a peculiar "03fg-like" (or "super-Chandrasekhar") Type Ia supernova (SN Ia), in the nebular phase at 338…

Interacting supernovae from wide massive binary systems

Andrea Ercolino, Harim Jin, Norbert Langer +1

Many supernovae (SNe) imply an interaction of the SN ejecta with matter (CSM) surrounding the progenitor star. This suggests that many massive stars may undergo various degrees of…

Using spectral modeling to break light-curve degeneracies of type II supernovae interacting with circumstellar material

Luc Dessart, W. V. Jacobson-Galán

A large fraction of red-supergiant stars seem to be enshrouded by circumstellar material (CSM) at the time of explosion. Relative to explosions in a vacuum, this CSM causes both a…
