Optical and near-infrared nebular-phase spectroscopy of SN 2024ggi: constraints on the structure of the inner ejecta, progenitor mass, and dust

Emilio Hueichapán, Régis Cartier, Jose L. Prieto +7

We present optical and near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopic observations of the nearby Type II supernova SN\,2024ggi from 250 and 581 days after the explosion. Comparing the evolution…

Very late-time spectroscopy of SN 2009ip: Constraints on the ongoing H emission

Thallis Pessi, Jose L. Prieto, Luc Dessart

The peculiar supernova (SN) 2009ip is an ambiguous event that spurred many questions regarding its true origins. Here, we present very late-time spectroscopic and photometric obser…

A metallicity dependence on the occurrence of core-collapse supernovae

Thallis Pessi, Joseph P. Anderson, Joseph D. Lyman +5

Core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) are widely accepted to be caused by the explosive death of massive stars with initial masses M. There is, however, a comparative…

A characterization of ASAS-SN core-collapse supernova environments with VLT+MUSE: I. Sample selection, analysis of local environments, and correlations with light curve properties

Thallis Pessi, Jose L. Prieto, Joseph P. Anderson +17

The analysis of core-collapse supernova (CCSN) environments can provide important information on the life cycle of massive stars and constrain the progenitor properties of these po…

A Unicorn in Monoceros: the dark companion to the bright, nearby red giant V723 Mon is a non-interacting, mass-gap black hole candidate

T. Jayasinghe, K. Z. Stanek, Todd A. Thompson +18

We report the discovery of the closest known black hole candidate as a binary companion to V723 Mon. V723 Mon is a nearby (), bright (~mag), evolved (…
