Hydrogen-Rich to Stripped-Envelope:Observational Continuity and Biases in CCSNe
Anjasha Gangopadhyay, Priscila J. Pessi
Although historically classified into discrete subclasses, there is growing evidence that indicates that core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) categories often overlap, reflecting conti…
The ANDICAM-SOFI Near-infrared and Optical type Ia Supernova (ASNOS) sample: Description and data release
Kim Phan, Lluís Galbany, Tomás E. Müller-Bravo +13
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) provide the most robust means of measuring extragalactic distances. While most of the effort has focused on increasing the number of SNe Ia observed in…
Eruptive mass loss less than a year before the explosion of superluminous supernovae. II. A systematic search for pre-explosion eruptions with VLT/X-shooter
A. Gkini, C. Fransson, R. Lunnan +22
We present X-shooter observations of a sample of 21 hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe-I), spanning a redshift range of z=0.13-0.95, aimed at searching for shells of cir…
SN 2021lwz: Another Exotic Luminous and Fast Evolving Optical Stripped Envelope Supernova ?
F. Poidevin, S. L. West, C. M. B. Omand +25
Current large-scale, high-cadence surveys, such as the ZTF, provide detections of new and rare types of transients and supernovae whose physical origins are not well understood. We…
SN 2021aaev: a Hydrogen-Rich Superluminous Supernova with Early Flash and Long-Lived Circumstellar Interaction in an Unusual Host Environment
Yang Hu, Ragnhild Lunnan, Priscila J. Pessi +25
We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of SN\,2021aaev, a hydrogen-rich, superluminous supernova with persistent (at least days) narrow Balmer lines (SLSN-…
SN 2023uqf: An Interacting Supernova Coincident with a High-Energy Neutrino
Robert Stein, Anna Y. Q. Ho, Anjasha Gangopadhyay +30
Astrophysical high-energy (TeV-PeV) neutrinos were first discovered in 2013, but their origin remains largely unknown. Here we present SN 2023uqf, a supernova found in coincidence…
Luminous, rapidly declining supernovae as stripped transitional objects in low metallicity environments: the case of SN 2022lxg
P. Charalampopoulos, R. Kotak, J. Sollerman +24
We present an analysis of the optical and near-infrared properties of SN 2022lxg, a bright ( mag) and rapidly evolving SN. It was discovered withi…
SN 2023xgo: Helium-rich Type Icn or Carbon-Flash Type Ibn supernova?
Anjasha Gangopadhyay, Jesper Sollerman, Konstantinos Tsalapatas +35
We present observations of SN~2023xgo, a transitional Type Ibn/Icn supernova, from to ~days relative to the -band peak. Early spectra show C~III emission rem…
SN 2024bfu, SN 2025qe, and the early light curves of type Iax supernovae
M. R. Magee, T. L. Killestein, M. Pursiainen +39
Type Iax supernovae (SNe Iax) are one of the most common subclasses of thermonuclear supernova and yet their sample size, particularly those observed shortly after explosion, remai…
The ambiguous AT2022rze: Changing-look AGN mimicking a supernova in a merging galaxy system
P. J. Pessi, R. Lunnan, J. Sollerman +36
AT2022rze is a luminous, ambiguous transient located South-East of the geometric center of its host galaxy at redshift z = 0.08. The host appears to be formed by a merging galaxy s…
SN 2024abfo: a partially stripped SN II from a yellow supergiant
A. Reguitti, A. Pastorello, S. J. Smartt +35
We present photometric and spectroscopic data of the type IIb supernova (SN) 2024abfo in NGC 1493 (at 11 Mpc). The ATLAS survey discovered the object just a few hours after the exp…
Observational diversity of bright long-lived Type II supernovae
T. Nagao, T. M. Reynolds, H. Kuncarayakti +21
In various types of supernovae (SNe), strong interaction between the SN ejecta and circumstellar material (CSM) has been reported. This raises questions on their progenitors and ma…
Inferring CSM Properties of Type II SNe Using a Magnitude-Limited ZTF Sample
K-Ryan Hinds, Daniel Perley, Jesper Sollerman +20
Although all Type II supernovae (SNe) originate from massive stars possessing a hydrogen-rich envelope, their light curve morphology is diverse, reflecting poorly characterised het…
ZTF SN Ia DR2: Improved SN Ia colors through expanded dimensionality with SALT3+
W. D. Kenworthy, A. Goobar, D. O. Jones +24
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are a key probe in modern cosmology, as they can be used to measure luminosity distances at gigaparsec scales. Models of their light-curves are used to…

Kaustav K. Das, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Christoffer Fremling +51
We present the luminosity function and volumetric rate of a sample of Type IIP supernovae (SNe) from the Zwicky Transient Facility Census of the Local Universe survey (CLU). This i…
