Bridging the gap between SLSNe and SE-SNe. Multi-wavelength analysis of the SLSN-Ib SN 2024jlc
A. Simongini, F. Acero, M. Imbrogno +15
The Type I super-luminous supernova SN~2024jlc (ZTF24aapadbb) exploded on the 25th of May 2024 at . Being the closest supernova of this class discovered in recent years…
NOMAI : A real-time photometric classifier for superluminous supernovae identification. A science module for the Fink broker
E. Russeil, R. Lunnan, J. Peloton +10
Superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) are one of the most luminous stellar explosions known, yet they remain poorly understood. Because they are intrinsically rare, efficiently identify…
Late-Time HST UV Detections Reveal Eruptive Mass Loss and Circumstellar Interaction in a Quarter of Stripped-Envelope Supernovae
C. Fremling, S. Covarrubias, J. Sollerman +19
We present HST WFC3/UVIS F275W near-UV imaging of 91stripped-envelope supernovae (SE SNe; Types IIb, Ib, Ic) from Snapshot program SNAP-16657, observed at phases of 270-1845 days (…
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…
The ambiguous AT2022rze: Changing-look AGN mimicking a supernova in a merging galaxy system
P. J. Pessi, R. Lunnan, J. Sollerman +36
AT2022rze is a luminous, ambiguous transient located South-East of the geometric center of its host galaxy at redshift z = 0.08. The host appears to be formed by a merging galaxy s…
A thermonuclear supernova interacting with hydrogen- and helium-deficient circumstellar material. SN 2020aeuh as a SN Ia-CSM-C/O?
K. Tsalapatas, J. Sollerman, R. Chiba +20
Identifying the progenitors of thermonuclear supernovae (Type Ia supernovae; SNe Ia) remains a key objective in contemporary astronomy. The rare subclass of SNe Ia that interacts w…
