Two years of shock interaction tracing three phases of evolution: the explosion of a Type IIn supernova, SN 2019vxm
Gitika Rameshan, Rishabh Singh Teja, D. K. Sahu +10
We present multi-wavelength photometric and optical spectroscopic observations of the long-lived interacting supernova SN 2019vxm, spanning more than two years after the explosion.…
The flash-ionised SN Ibn 2025kzr: H-free CSM formed during a precursor outburst 55 days prior to explosion
S. de Wet, G. Leloudas, D. A. H. Buckley +33
Type Ibn supernovae (SNe) are a class of interacting SNe characterised by narrow helium lines in their spectra. We present an extensive observational dataset of the Type Ibn SN 202…
Failed jet breakout in the metal-poor broad-lined type Ic supernova 2026gzf
Antonio Martin-Carrillo, Christina C. Thöne, James K. Leung +103
A long-standing question in the death of massive stars is the role of relativistic jets. While many gamma-ray bursts and some fast X-ray transients seem to be associated with broad…
Peculiar SN Ic 2022esa: An explosion of a massive Wolf-Rayet star in a binary as a precursor to a BH-BH binary?
Keiichi Maeda, Hanindyo Kuncarayakti, Takashi Nagao +4
A class of supernovae (SNe) termed `SN Ic-CSM' are characterized by late-time emergence of narrow emission lines of elements formed in the oxygen core of a massive star. A popular…
SN 2023xgo: Helium-rich Type Icn or Carbon-Flash Type Ibn supernova?
Anjasha Gangopadhyay, Jesper Sollerman, Konstantinos Tsalapatas +35
We present observations of SN~2023xgo, a transitional Type Ibn/Icn supernova, from to ~days relative to the -band peak. Early spectra show C~III emission re…
SN 2023vbg: A Type IIn Supernova Resembling SN 2009ip, with a Long-Duration Precursor and Early-Time Bump
Sota Goto, Masayuki Yamanaka, Takahiro Nagayama +9
Type IIn supernovae (SNe) resembling SN 2009ip (09ip-like SNe) originate from the interaction between circumstellar material (CSM) and the ejecta. This subclass not only shares sim…
