A New Era for Supernova Science with the James Webb Space Telescope
Justin Pierel, David Coulter, Christa DeCoursey +17
Supernovae (SNe) are excellent probes of the physical, chemical, and cosmological context of galaxies across the history of the Universe. The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST ) has…
Las Cumbres Observatory Gravitational-Wave Follow-up in the Third and Fourth Observing Runs: Strengths and Weaknesses of a Rapid Response Galaxy Targeted Strategy
Ido Keinan, Iair Arcavi, D. Andrew Howell +34
We present a summary of gravitational-wave (GW) follow-up using the Las Cumbres Observatory global network of telescopes during the third (O3) and fourth (O4) observing runs of the…
Revisiting the Mass Step: Environmental Dependence of Type Ia Supernovae in Low-Metallicity Host Galaxies
Estefania Padilla Gonzalez, A. Joshi Bhavin, Louis G. Strolger +14
Despite the tremendous impact of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) on the field of cosmology, their underlying physics are still poorly understood. Studies have found an intriguing corre…
SN 2025ogs: A Spectroscopically-Normal Type Ia Supernova at z = 2 as a Benchmark for Redshift Evolution
M. R. Siebert, J. D. R. Pierel, M. Engesser +20
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will provide a revolutionary measurement of the Universe's expansion kinematics, driven by dark matter and dark energy, out to .…
When IIb Ceases To Be: Bridging the Gap Between IIb and Short-plateau Supernovae
Joseph R. Farah, D. Andrew Howell, Daichi Hiramatsu +13
Hydrogen-rich supernovae (SNe) span a range of hydrogen envelope masses at core collapse, producing diverse light curves from extended plateaus in Type II SNe to double-peaked Type…
EP241021a: a months-duration X-ray transient with luminous optical and radio emission
Shu Xinwen, Yang Lei, Yang Haonan +82
We present the discovery of a peculiar X-ray transient, EP241021a, by the Einstein Probe (EP) mission, and the results from multiwavelength follow-up observations. The transient wa…
A Multiwavelength Autopsy of the Interacting IIn Supernova 2020ywx: Tracing its Progenitor Mass-Loss History for 100 Years before Death
Raphael Baer-Way, Poonam Chandra, Maryam Modjaz +31
While the subclass of interacting supernovae with narrow hydrogen emission lines (SNe IIn) consists of some of the longest-lasting and brightest SNe ever discovered, their progenit…
AT2023vto: An Exceptionally Luminous Helium Tidal Disruption Event from a Massive Star
Harsh Kumar, Edo Berger, Daichi Hiramatsu +10
We present optical/UV observations and the spectroscopic classification of the transient AT2023vto as a tidal disruption event (TDE) at z = 0.4846. The spectrum is dominated by a b…
One Year of SN 2023ixf: Breaking Through the Degenerate Parameter Space in Light-Curve Models with Pulsating Progenitors
Brian Hsu, Nathan Smith, Jared A. Goldberg +21
We present and analyze the extensive optical broadband photometry of the Type II SN 2023ixf up to one year after explosion. We find that, when compared to two pre-existing model gr…
The X-ray Luminous Type Ibn SN 2022ablq: Estimates of Pre-explosion Mass Loss and Constraints on Precursor Emission
C. Pellegrino, M. Modjaz, Y. Takei +14
Type Ibn supernovae (SNe Ibn) are rare stellar explosions powered primarily by interaction between the SN ejecta and H-poor, He-rich material lost by their progenitor stars. Multi-…
Extended Shock Breakout and Early Circumstellar Interaction in SN 2024ggi
Manisha Shrestha, K. Azalee Bostroem, David J. Sand +40
We present high-cadence photometric and spectroscopic observations of supernova (SN) 2024ggi, a Type II SN with flash spectroscopy features which exploded in the nearby galaxy NGC…
