Properties of the circumstellar matter around the pair-instability supernova candidate SN 2018ibb revealed by its light curve

Takashi J. Moriya, Steve Schulze, Alexander Heger +2

SN 2018ibb is one of the best pair-instability supernova (PISN) candidates identified to date. It, however, showed unexpected blue flux excess in late-phase spectra, likely origina…

GRBs and Relativistic Transients in the 2040s

Nikhil Sarin, Andrew Levan, Nial Tanvir +9

Relativistic transients such as gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), jetted tidal disruption events, luminous fast blue optical transients, and fast X-ray transients, represent the brightest e…

Type Ibn supernovae from ultra-stripped supernova progenitors

Takashi J. Moriya, Bernhard Mueller, Sergei I. Blinnikov +4

Ultra-stripped supernovae are core-collapse supernovae from progenitors that lose a significant fraction of mass because of the binary interactions with their compact companion sta…

Observatory Science with eXTP

Ping Zhou, Jirong Mao, Liang Zhang +97

Scheduled for launch in 2030, the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarization (eXTP) telescope is a Chinese space-based mission aimed at studying extreme conditions and phenomena in ast…

The birth mass function of neutron stars

Zhi-Qiang You, Xingjiang Zhu, Xiaojin Liu +12

The birth mass function of neutron stars encodes rich information about supernova explosions, double star evolution, and properties of matter under extreme conditions. To date, it…

Spectacular nucleosynthesis from early massive stars

Alexander P. Ji, Sanjana Curtis, Nicholas Storm +39

Stars formed with initial mass over 50 Msun are very rare today, but they are thought to be more common in the early universe. The fates of those early, metal-poor, massive stars a…
