Peak 'Nebular' Emission and Early Flux Excesses in Ca-strong Supernovae
C. -G. Touchard-Paxton, K. Maguire, C. Frohmaier +27
Calcium-strong supernovae (Ca-strong SNe) are a class of thermonuclear transient characterised by rapid photometric evolution (rise times of <= 16 d) and nebular-phase spectra domi…
An analysis of the Type Ia SN 2024gy and a comparison of different host extinction estimation techniques
Jacco H. Terwel, Kate Maguire, Cillian O'Donnell +38
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are well-known standardisable candles, and are one of the main ways to measure the distance to their host galaxies. However, extinction due to interstel…
Nested, asymmetric H-He circumstellar shells in the Type Icn/Ibn SN 2024abvb
The INTEL Collaboration, J. P. Anderson, C. Aster +17
Interacting transients probe mass loss in the final stages of stellar evolution; however, the geometry and timing of multi-episode mass loss remain poorly constrained. SN 2024abvb…
Photometric classification of supernovae detected by the Zwicky Transient Facility using noise augmentation
A. Townsend, J. Nordin, M. Kowalski +27
Modern time-domain surveys, such as the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF), detect far more extragalactic transients than can be spectroscopically classified. Photometric classificati…
ZTF-SEDm Type Ia supernova sample for Twins Embedding spectrophotometric standardisation
C. Ganot, Y. Copin, M. Rigault +26
This paper has two aims: the first one is to build a large homogeneous spectrophotometric Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) sample, using 3069 spectra from the second Zwicky Transient Faci…
ZTF SNe Ia DR2: Towards cosmology-grade ZTF supernova light curves using scene modeling photometry
L. Lacroix, N. Regnault, T. de Jaeger +36
The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) is conducting a wide-field survey of the northern sky in three optical bands and the collaboration cosmology working group has released 3628 spe…
