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…
The ALMA carbon monoxide supernova (ACOS) survey II. Turbulent giant molecular clouds at the positions of core-collapse supernovae
M. Solar, M. J. Michałowski, J. Nadolny +11
Context. Study of cold molecular hydrogen gas (hereafter molecular gas) provides crucial insights into its interplay with star-forming regions. However, the connection between mole…
Dust Without Na I D Trace: The Case of Highly Attenuated Type Ib SN 2024vjc
Javier Silva-Farfán, Keiichi Maeda, Andrea Pastorello +19
Understanding dust attenuation toward extragalactic transients is critical for recovering their intrinsic properties and probing the local environments of distant galaxies. A popul…
ZTF SN Ia DR2 follow-up: early excess in Type Ia supernova light curves
Tomás E. Müller-Bravo, Tomás E. Müller-Bravo, Kate Maguire +17
There is broad consensus that Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are the thermonuclear explosions of C/O white dwarfs (WDs) in binary systems, but their progenitors and explosion mechanis…
Multiwavelength Analysis of Six Luminous Fast Blue Optical Transients
Cassie Sevilla, Anna Y. Q. Ho, Nayana A. J. +43
We present multiwavelength observations and analysis of six luminous fast blue optical transients (LFBOTs) discovered in Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) survey data. We identified…
Catching Disguised Transients with ASTRANet: Anomaly-Aware Spectroscopic Classification and Conformal Calibration
Argyro Sasli, Maojie Xu, Alexandra Junell +21
Time-domain surveys discover thousands of transients per year, but the spectroscopic identification of rare and physically peculiar objects remains rate-limited by closed-set class…
