SN 2022ngb: A faint, slowly evolving Type IIb supernova with a low-mass envelope
J. -W. Zhao, S. Benetti, Y. -Z. Cai +35
An extensive photometric and spectroscopic follow-up campaign of the Type IIb SN 2022ngb is presented in the article. Through detailed modeling of this dataset, we aim to constrain…
The broad-lined type Ic supernova 2020lao experienced an energetic explosion with no central-engine signatures
M. D. Stritzinger, T. J. Moriya, S. Bose +18
We present infant-phase observations of the SN Ic-BL 2020lao, including optical spectroscopy beginning 48 hrs after explosion. The explosion time was constrained by power-law fits…
Massive stars exploding in a He-rich circumstellar medium XII. SN 2024acyl: A fast, linearly declining Type Ibn supernova with early flash-ionisation features
Y. -Z. Cai, A. Pastorello, K. Maeda +63
We present a photometric and spectroscopic analysis of the Type Ibn supernova (SN) 2024acyl. It rises to an absolute magnitude peak of about -17.58 mag in 10.6 days, and displays a…
Discovery and Analysis of Afterglows from Poorly Localised GRBs with the Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO) All-sky Survey
Amit Kumar, B. P. Gompertz, B. Schneider +86
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), particularly those detected by wide-field instruments such as the Fermi/GBM, pose a challenge for optical follow-up due to their large initial localisation…
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 durin…
Massive stars exploding in a He-rich circumstellar medium. XI. Diverse evolution of five Ibn SNe 2020nxt, 2020taz, 2021bbv, 2023utc and 2024aej
Z. -Y. Wang, A. Pastorello, Y. -Z. Cai +53
We present the photometric and spectroscopic analysis of five Type Ibn supernovae (SNe): SN 2020nxt, SN 2020taz, SN 2021bbv, SN 2023utc, and SN 2024aej. These events share key obse…
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…
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…
The bright long-lived Type II SN 2021irp powered by aspherical circumstellar material interaction (I): Revealing the energy source with photometry and spectroscopy
T. M. Reynolds, T. Nagao, R. Gottumukkala +20
Some core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) are too luminous and radiate too much total energy to be powered by the release of thermal energy from the ejecta and radioactive-decay energy…
An Integral Field Unit for the Binospec Spectrograph
Daniel Fabricant, Sagi Ben-Ami, Igor Chilingarian +5
Binospec is a wide-field optical (360 to 1000 nm) spectrograph commissioned at the MMT 6.5m telescope in 2017. In direct imaging mode Binospec addresses twin 8 (wide) by 1…
