Serendipitous detection of the dusty Type IIL SN 1980K with JWST/MIRI

Szanna Zsíros, Tamás Szalai, Ilse De Looze +39

We present mid-infrared (mid-IR) imaging of the Type IIL supernova (SN) 1980K with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) more than 40 yr post-explosion. SN 1980K, located in the ne…
