No Evidence for Nearby Circumstellar Material in the Type Ia Supernova 2025rbs
Aravind P. Ravi, Griffin Hosseinzadeh, Stefano Valenti +28
We present a high-resolution spectral time series of the Type Ia supernova (SN) 2025rbs discovered in the nearby galaxy NGC 7331. The Automated Planet Finder (APF) at Lick Observat…
JWST Spectroscopy of Type Ia Supernova 2025rbs from Maximum Light to the Nebular Phase
Lindsey A. Kwok, Stéphane Blondin, Adam A. Miller +53
We present JWST observations of the Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2025rbs (14.5 Mpc) at +1, +23, and +84 days after B-band maximum, spanning peak light through a wavelength-depende…
JWST Observations of Calcium-Strong Transients: I. Complex Nebular He Emission in SN 2024uj
Saarah Hall, Lindsey A. Kwok, Aravind P. Ravi +29
We present the first JWST observations of a Calcium-Strong Transient (CaST), SN 2024uj, a rare class of supernovae (SNe) with observable properties that are consistent with both th…
Circumstellar Interaction in the Ultraviolet Spectra of SN 2023ixf 14-66 Days After Explosion
K. Azalee Bostroem, David J. Sand, Luc Dessart +20
SN 2023ixf was discovered in M101 within a day of explosion and rapidly classified as a Type II supernova with flash features. Here we present ultraviolet (UV) spectra obtained wit…
