Old and Bright: The Remarkable Radio Brightening of the Engine-driven SN 2012au Several Years After Explosion Signals the Birth of a PWN
Eli Wiston, Raffaella Margutti, A. J. Nayana +23
We present the results from an extensive broad-band (radio to X-rays) observing campaign of the engine-driven Type Ib SN 2012au in the first 13 years of evolution. The early-time (…
A 14-year-old Mystery: The Peculiar Case of the Engine-driven SN 2012ap
Itai Sfaradi, Raffaella Margutti, Ryan Chornock +29
We present late-time ( d) optical (Keck), X-ray (Chandra and NuSTAR), and radio (VLA, ALMA, and the uGMRT) observations of the Type Ic-BL SN 2012ap. Previous studies of…
The Most Luminous Known Fast Blue Optical Transient AT 2024wpp: Unprecedented Evolution and Properties in the Ultraviolet to the Near-Infrared
Natalie LeBaron, Raffaella Margutti, Ryan Chornock +45
We present an extensive photometric and spectroscopic ultraviolet-optical-infrared campaign on the luminous fast blue optical transient (LFBOT) AT 2024wpp over the first ~100 d. AT…
Arcminute Microkelvin Imager observations at 15.5 GHz of multiple outbursts of Cygnus X-3 in 2024
D. A. Green, L. Rhodes, J. Bright
We report radio monitoring of Cygnus X-3 at 15.5 GHz during 2024 with the Arcminute Microkelvin Imager. Observations were made on 296 days throughout the year, and reveal five radi…
