SN 2019cqc: A Hydrogen-rich Superluminous Supernova Showing Electron-Scattering Signatures
Dinesh Hebbar, Rupak Roy, Matt Nicholl +15
Hydrogen-rich superluminous supernovae without narrow emission lines (SLSNe-II) are rare transients whose powering mechanisms remain debated, particularly the role of circumstellar…
The efficient star-forming regions of stripped-envelope supernovae
M. Solar, M. J. Michałowski, J. Nadolny +13
Massive stars () play a key role in shaping the interstellar medium of galaxies through stellar feedback. However, how these stars form and evolve before explod…
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…
SN 2020bij and a Possible Slow-Rise High-Velocity Subclass of Type IIP Supernovae
Sondos Mohsen-Tanev, Iair Arcavi, Shahar Bracha +17
Mapping how the explosion properties of Type II supernovae (SNe II) relate to the properties of their progenitors can provide strong constraints for understanding the final evoluti…
AT2024wpp: An Extremely Luminous Fast Ultraviolet Transient Powered by Accretion onto a Black Hole
Daniel A. Perley, Anna Y. Q. Ho, Zoë McGrath +69
We present the discovery of AT 2024wpp ("Whippet"), a fast and luminous 18cow-like transient. At a redshift of z=0.0868, revealed by Keck Cosmic Web Imager spectroscopy of its fain…
The ANDICAM-SOFI Near-infrared and Optical type Ia Supernova (ASNOS) sample: Description and data release
Kim Phan, Lluís Galbany, Tomás E. Müller-Bravo +13
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) provide the most robust means of measuring extragalactic distances. While most of the effort has focused on increasing the number of SNe Ia observed in…
SN 2023taz: Implications for the UV Diversity of Superluminous Supernovae
Aysha Aamer, Matt Nicholl, Charlotte Angus +21
Superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) are some of the brightest explosions in the Universe representing the extremes of stellar deaths. At the upper end of their distribution is SN\,202…
Infrared observations reveal the reprocessing envelope in the tidal disruption event AT 2019azh
Thomas M. Reynolds, Lars Thomsen, Seppo Mattila +14
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) are expected to release much of their energy in the far-ultraviolet (UV), which we do not observe directly. However, infrared (IR) observations can o…
The Type I Superluminous Supernova Catalogue II: Spectroscopic Evolution in the Photospheric Phase, Velocity Measurements, and Constraints on Diversity
Aysha Aamer, Matt Nicholl, Sebastian Gomez +29
Hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) are among the most energetic explosions in the universe, reaching luminosities up to 100 times greater than those of normal supernova…
Early Light Curve Excess in Type IIb Supernovae Observed by the ATLAS Survey: Qualitative Constraints on Progenitor Systems
Bastian Ayala, Joseph P. Anderson, G. Pignata +8
Type IIb supernovae (SNe IIb) often exhibit an early light curve excess (EE) preceding the main peak powered by radioactive nickel decay. The physical origin of this early emission…
The Einstein Probe transient EP240414a: Linking Fast X-ray Transients, Gamma-ray Bursts and Luminous Fast Blue Optical Transients
Joyce N. D. van Dalen, Andrew J. Levan, Peter G. Jonker +30
Detections of fast X-ray transients (FXTs) have been accrued over the last few decades. However, their origin has remained mysterious. There is now rapid progress thanks to timely…
Light-Curve Structure and Halpha Line Formation in the Tidal Disruption Event AT 2019azh
Sara Faris, Iair Arcavi, Lydia Makrygianni +33
AT 2019azh is a H+He tidal disruption event (TDE) with one of the most extensive ultraviolet and optical data sets available to date. We present our photometric and spectroscopic o…
Minutes-duration Optical Flares with Supernova Luminosities
Anna Y. Q. Ho, Daniel A. Perley, Ping Chen +74
In recent years, certain luminous extragalactic optical transients have been observed to last only a few days. Their short observed duration implies a different powering mechanism…
