HighSpec: A High-Resolution Spectrograph for the MAST Telescope Array
Yahel Sofer Rimalt, Sagi Ben-Ami, Eran Ofek +13
We present the updated design of HighSpec, a high-resolution spectrograph designed for the Multi Aperture Spectroscopic Telescope (MAST). HighSpec offers…
Spectroscopic observations of progenitor activity 100 days before a Type Ibn supernova
S. J. Brennan, J. Sollerman, I. Irani +30
Obtaining spectroscopic observations of the progenitors of core-collapse supernovae is often unfeasible due to an inherent lack of knowledge as to which stars will go supernova and…
A 12.4 day periodicity in a close binary system after a supernova
Ping Chen, Avishay Gal-Yam, Jesper Sollerman +37
Neutron stars and stellar-mass black holes are the remnants of massive star explosions. Most massive stars reside in close binary systems, and the interplay between the companion s…
The Progenitor Star of SN 2023ixf: A Massive Red Supergiant with Enhanced, Episodic Pre-Supernova Mass Loss
Yu-Jing Qin, Keming Zhang, Joshua Bloom +10
We identify the progenitor star of SN 2023ixf in the nearby galaxy Messier 101 using Keck/NIRC2 adaptive optics imaging and pre-explosion HST/ACS images. The supernova position, lo…
A Systematic Study of Ia-CSM Supernovae from the ZTF Bright Transient Survey
Yashvi Sharma, Jesper Sollerman, Christoffer Fremling +35
Among the supernovae (SNe) that show strong interaction with the circumstellar medium, there is a rare subclass of Type Ia supernovae, SNe Ia-CSM, that show strong narrow hydrogen…
