SN 2022erq: A Superluminous Thermonuclear Supernova with Escalating Preexplosion Mass Loss
Qian Zhai, Jujia Zhang, Xiaofeng Wang +51
We present a photometric and spectroscopic study of the superluminous Type Ia supernova SN 2022erq. Its early spectra, dominated by iron-group elements with weak intermediate-mass…
EP250827b/SN 2025wkm: An X-ray Flash-Supernova Powered by a Central Engine and Circumstellar Interaction
Gokul P. Srinivasaragavan, Dongyue Li, Xander J. Hall +100
We present the discovery of EP250827b/SN 2025wkm, an X-ray Flash (XRF) discovered by the Einstein Probe (EP), accompanied by a broad-line Type Ic supernova (SN Ic-BL) at $z = 0.119…
Spectral Dataset of Stripped-Envelope Supernovae from the Tsinghua Supernova Group
Danfeng Xiang, Xiaofeng Wang, Jujia Zhang +40
The extent of envelope stripping in the progenitor stars is directly reflected in the diversity of spectral features observed in stripped-envelope supernovae (SESNe). Through exten…
AT 2024wpp: the most luminous fast-evolving optical transient linked to the merger explosion of a black-hole binary
Jialian Liu, Bao Wang, Xiaofeng Wang +48
Fast blue optical transients (FBOTs) represent one of the most exotic astrophysical transients, exhibiting unusually strong emission across X-ray, optical, and radio wavelengths. T…
SN 2024igg: A Super-Chandrasekhar/03fg-like SN exhibiting C II-dominated spectra after explosion
Jialian Liu, Xiaofeng Wang, Liyang Chen +14
We present and analyze photometric and spectroscopic observations of the Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2024igg, another ``super-Chandrasekhar'' (or 03fg-like) SN whose strong C II $\la…
SN 2024gy: Multi-epoch Spectroscopic Features Suggestive of Delayed Detonation in a Type Ia Supernova
Liping Li, Zhenyu Wang, Jialian Liu +28
We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of SN 2024gy, a Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) exhibiting high-velocity features (HVFs) in its early-time spectra. This SN reaches…
