JWST Spectroscopy of Type Ia Supernova 2025rbs from Maximum Light to the Nebular Phase
Lindsey A. Kwok, Stéphane Blondin, Adam A. Miller +53
We present JWST observations of the Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2025rbs (14.5 Mpc) at +1, +23, and +84 days after B-band maximum, spanning peak light through a wavelength-depende…
Characterising the Standardisation Properties of Type Ia Supernovae in the z band with Hierarchical Bayesian Modelling
Erin E. Hayes, Suhail Dhawan, Kaisey S. Mandel +21
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are standardisable candles: their peak magnitudes can be corrected for correlations between light curve properties and their luminosities to precisely e…
Characterizing Supernova Host Galaxies with FrankenBlast: A Scalable Tool for Transient Host Galaxy Association, Photometry, and Stellar Population Modeling
Anya E. Nugent, V. Ashley Villar, Alex Gagliano +5
We present FrankenBlast, a customized and improved version of the Blast web application. FrankenBlast associates transients to their host galaxies, performs host photometry, and ru…
Spectral Diversity in Type Ibn Supernovae and the Large Host Offset of SN2024acyl
Yize Dong, V. Ashley Villar, Anya Nugent +35
In this paper, we first present observations of SN~2024acyl, a normal Type Ibn supernova with a large projected offset (35~kpc) from its host galaxy. The low star-formation r…
An Updated Detection Pipeline for Precursor Emission in Type II Supernova 2020tlf
Wynn Jacobson-Galán, Sebastian Gonzalez, Shreyas Patel +34
We present a new photometric pipeline for the detection of pre-supernova (pre-SN) emission in the Young Supernova Experiment (YSE) sky survey. The method described is applied to SN…
PS1-11aop: Probing the Mass Loss History of a Luminous Interacting Supernova Prior to its Final Eruption with Multi-wavelength Observations
Adaeze L. Ibik, Maria R. Drout, Raffaela Margutti +14
Luminous interacting supernovae are a class of stellar explosions whose progenitors underwent vigorous mass loss in the years prior to core-collapse. While the mechanism by which t…
