The Type Icn SN 2021csp: Implications for the Origins of the Fastest Supernovae and the Fates of Wolf-Rayet Stars

Daniel A. Perley, Jesper Sollerman, Steve Schulze +31

We present observations of SN 2021csp, the second example of a newly-identified type of supernova (Type Icn) hallmarked by strong, narrow, P Cygni carbon features at early times. T…

Faintest of them all : ZTF 21aaoryiz/SN 2021fcg -- Discovery of an extremely low luminosity type Iax supernova

Viraj R. Karambelkar, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Kate Maguire +20

We present the discovery of ZTF 21aaoryiz/SN 2021fcg -- an extremely low-luminosity Type Iax supernova. SN 2021fcg was discovered by the Zwicky Transient Facility in the star-formi…

Less than 1% of Core-Collapse Supernovae in the local universe occur in elliptical galaxies

I. Irani, S. J. Prentice, S. Schulze +39

We present observations of three Core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) in elliptical hosts, detected by the Zwicky Transient Facility Bright Transient Survey (BTS). SN 2019ape is a SN I…

The large-scale environment of thermonuclear and core-collapse supernovae

Eleni Tsaprazi, Jens Jasche, Ariel Goobar +11

The new generation of wide-field time-domain surveys has made it feasible to study the clustering of supernova (SN) host galaxies in the large-scale structure (LSS) for the first t…

A Search for Extragalactic Fast Blue Optical Transients in ZTF and the Rate of AT2018cow-like Transients

Anna Y. Q. Ho, Daniel A. Perley, Avishay Gal-Yam +40

We present a search for extragalactic fast blue optical transients (FBOTs) during Phase I of the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF). We identify 38 candidates with durations above hal…

A population of heavily reddened, optically missed novae from Palomar Gattini-IR: Constraints on the Galactic nova rate

Kishalay De, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Matthew J. Hankins +25

The nova rate in the Milky Way remains largely uncertain, despite its vital importance in constraining models of Galactic chemical evolution as well as understanding progenitor cha…
