Early interaction signatures and an extended plateau phase in Type II SN 2020aze
B. Ailawadhi, R. Dastidar, K. Misra +27
We present a photometric and spectroscopic analysis of the fast-declining Type II SN 2020aze, observed in optical bands from 2.2 to 137.4 days after explosion. The V-band light cur…
Search For a Counterpart to the Subsolar Mass Gravitational Wave Candidate S251112cm
Nicholas Vieira, Noah Franz, Bhagya Subrayan +49
The recent candidate gravitational-wave (GW) alert from a compact object merger involving at least one subsolar mass (SSM) object has prompted questions about their origins. S25111…
A Faint Progenitor System for the Faint Supernova 2024vjm
Erez A. Zimmerman, Avishay Gal-Yam, Paul J. Groot +68
Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) are well known for their role as standardizable cosmological candles. Their uniformity is credited to their single origin as thermonuclear explosions of…
SN 2023zcu: A Type IIP SN with Early Flash Features
Monalisa Dubey, Kuntal Misra, Géza Csörnyei +51
We present a detailed photometric and spectroscopic analysis of the Type IIP supernova SN~2023zcu, which exploded in the galaxy NGC~2139 (redshift = 0.006). SN~2023zcu exhibits…
Early Shock-Cooling Observations and Progenitor Constraints of Type IIb SN 2024uwq
Bhagya M. Subrayan, David J. Sand, K. Azalee Bostroem +26
We present early multi-wavelength photometric and spectroscopic observations of the Type IIb supernova SN 2024uwq, capturing its shock-cooling emission phase and double-peaked ligh…
Authenticating the Presence of a Relativistic Massive Black Hole Binary in OJ 287 Using its General Relativity Centenary Flare: Improved Orbital Parameters
Lankeswar Dey, M. J. Valtonen, A. Gopakumar +5
Results from regular monitoring of relativistic compact binaries like PSR 1913+16 are consistent with the dominant (quadrupole) order emission of gravitational waves (GWs). We show…
The early detection and follow-up of the highly obscured Type II supernova 2016ija/DLT16am
L. Tartaglia, D. J. Sand, S. Valenti +45
We present our analysis of the Type II supernova DLT16am (SN~2016ija). The object was discovered during the ongoing (DLT40) one day cadence supernova search a…
The progenitor and early evolution of the Type IIb SN 2016gkg
L. Tartaglia, M. Fraser, D. J. Sand +24
We report initial observations and analysis on the Type IIb SN~2016gkg in the nearby galaxy NGC~613. SN~2016gkg exhibited a clear double-peaked light curve during its early evoluti…
Type Iax Supernovae: A New Class of Stellar Explosion
Ryan J. Foley, P. J. Challis, R. Chornock +19
We describe observed properties of the Type Iax class of supernovae (SNe Iax), consisting of SNe observationally similar to its prototypical member, SN 2002cx. The class currently…
Interacting Supernovae and Supernova Impostors. SN 2009ip, is this the end?
A. Pastorello, E. Cappellaro, C. Inserra +41
We report the results of a 3 year-long dedicated monitoring campaign of a restless Luminous Blue Variable (LBV) in NGC 7259. The object, named SN 2009ip, was observed photometrical…
