SN 2024bfu, SN 2025qe, and the early light curves of type Iax supernovae

M. R. Magee, T. L. Killestein, M. Pursiainen +39

Type Iax supernovae (SNe Iax) are one of the most common subclasses of thermonuclear supernova and yet their sample size, particularly those observed shortly after explosion, remai…

The case of AT2022wtn: a Tidal Disruption Event in an interacting galaxy

F. Onori, M. Nicholl, P. Ramsden +35

We present the results from our multi-wavelength monitoring campaign of the transient AT2022wtn, discovered by the Zwicky Transient Facility in the nucleus of SDSSJ232323.79+104107…

The fast rise of the unusual Type IIL/IIb SN 2018ivc

A. Reguitti, R. Dastidar, G. Pignata +22

We present an analysis of the photometric and spectroscopic dataset of the Type II supernova (SN) 2018ivc in the nearby (10 Mpc) galaxy Messier 77. Thanks to the high cadence of th…

Quasi-periodic X-ray eruptions years after a nearby tidal disruption event

M. Nicholl, D. R. Pasham, A. Mummery +61

Quasi-periodic Eruptions (QPEs) are luminous bursts of soft X-rays from the nuclei of galaxies, repeating on timescales of hours to weeks. The mechanism behind these rare systems i…

Eruptive mass loss less than a year before the explosion of superluminous supernovae: I. The cases of SN 2020xga and SN 2022xgc

A. Gkini, C. Fransson, R. Lunnan +47

We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of SN 2020xga and SN 2022xgc, two hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe-I) at and , respectiv…

A study in scarlet -- II. Spectroscopic properties of a sample of Intermediate Luminosity Red Transients

G. Valerin, A. Pastorello, E. Mason +65

We investigate the spectroscopic characteristics of Intermediate Luminosity Red Transients (ILRTs), a class of elusive objects with peak luminosity between that of classical novae…
