SN 2025aico: Early observations of a faint Type IIb supernova with a low-mass envelope
J. -W. Zhao, A. Pastorello, B. Kumar +45
We aimed to investigate the physical properties and the underlying explosion mechanisms of the Type IIb SN 2025aico. Through a comprehensive analysis of early-phase optical light c…
JWST Observations of SN 2024ggi II: NIRSpec Spectroscopy and CO Modeling at 285 and 385 Days Past the Explosion
T. Mera, C. Ashall, P. Hoeflich +20
We present James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) NIRSpec observations of SN~2024ggi, spanning wavelengths of 1.7--5.5 micron at +285.51 and +385.27 days post-explosion. These nebular s…
The hydrogen-free circumstellar interaction in the Type Ib supernova 2021efd: A clue to the mechanism of the helium-layer stripping
N. Pyykkinen, T. Nagao, H. Kuncarayakti +27
Stripped-envelope supernovae (SESNe), including Type IIb, Ib, and Ic supernovae (SNe), originate from the explosions of massive stars whose outer envelopes have been largely remove…
Analyzing type Ia supernovae near-infrared light curves with Principal Component Analysis
T. E. Müller-Bravo, L. Galbany, M. D. Stritzinger +8
Type Ia supernovae (SNeIa), the thermonuclear explosions of C/O white dwarf stars in binary systems, are phenomena that remain poorly understood. The complexity of their progenitor…
JWST Observations of SN 2023ixf I: Completing the Early Multi-Wavelength Picture with Plateau-phase Spectroscopy
J. M. DerKacy, C. Ashall, E. Baron +46
We present and analyze panchromatic (0.35--14 m) spectroscopy of the Type II supernova 2023ixf, including near- and mid-infrared spectra obtained 33.6 days after explosion duri…
JWST Observations of SN 2024ggi I: Interpretation and Model Comparison of the Type II Supernova 2024ggi at 55 days Past Explosion
E. Baron, C. Ashall, J. M. DerKacy +40
We present panchromatic 0.4-21 microns observations of the nearby (about 7.2 Mpc) Type II supernova 2024ggi, obtained during the plateau phase at about 55 d past explosion. Our dat…
