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 2021hpr: A Normal Type Ia Supernova Showing Excess Emission in the Early Rising Phase
Abdusamatjan Iskandar, Xiaofeng Wang, Ali Esamdin +37
We present extensive optical observations of a nearby Type Ia supernova (SN Ia), SN 2021hpr, located in the spiral galaxy NGC 3147 at a distance of 45 Mpc. Our observations…
Implications for the Explosion Mechanism of Type Ia Supernovae from their Late-time Spectra
Jialian Liu, Xiaofeng Wang, Alexei V. Filippenko +10
Late-time spectra of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are important in clarifying the physics of their explosions, as they provide key clues to the inner structure of the exploding whit…
Observations of the Very Young Type Ia Supernova 2019np with Early-excess Emission
Hanna Sai, Xiaofeng Wang, Nancy Elias-Rosa +30
Early-time radiative signals from type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) can provide important constraints on the explosion mechanism and the progenitor system. We present observations and an…
SN 2017fgc: A Fast-Expanding Type Ia Supernova Exploded in Massive Shell Galaxy NGC 474
Xiangyun Zeng, Xiaofeng Wang, Ali Esamdin +31
We present extensive optical photometric and spectroscopic observations of the high-velocity (HV) Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2017fgc, covering the phase from 12 d before to $…
SN 2017hpa: A Nearby Carbon-Rich Type Ia Supernova with a Large Velocity Gradient
Xiangyun Zeng, Xiaofeng Wang, Ali Esamdin +24
We present extensive, well-sampled optical and ultraviolet photometry and optical spectra of the Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2017hpa. The light curves indicate that SN 2017hpa is a n…
