A data processing pipeline for the WINTER near-infrared surveyor using the framework
Viraj Karambelkar, Robert Stein, Danielle Frostig +18
We present the data reduction and transient detection pipeline for the Wide-field Infrared Transient Explorer (WINTER) surveyor and report its on-sky performance. The WINTER camera…
Multi-Wavelength Identification of a Luminous Mid-Infrared Supernova Powered by Circumstellar Interaction with Binary-Driven Pre-supernova Mass Loss
Kohki Uno, Kishalay De, Geoffrey Mo +6
Terminal mass-loss in massive stars is commonly reconstructed from observations of circumstellar interaction in core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe); however, such signatures can be ea…
TESS detection of periodic brightness variations during the rise of classical nova PGIR22akgylf
Kirill V. Sokolovsky, Elias Aydi, Konstantin Malanchev +14
Classical novae are transient events powered by thermonuclear burning in a layer of hydrogen-rich material accreted by a white dwarf from its binary companion. Most classical novae…
SN~2018erx: A fast-evolving, dust-reddened Type Icn supernova with broad C II emission lines
Kaustav K. Das, Anjasha Gangopadhyay, Mansi M. Kasliwal +17
We present the discovery and characterization of SN~2018erx (ZTF18abkmbpy), a fast-evolving, unusually red, interacting stripped-envelope supernova. Spectroscopically, SN~2018erx s…
The rise of the black hole X-ray binary AT2019wey observed with TESS
Alyana Jusino, Kishalay De, Andrea Antoni
Black hole X-ray binaries (BHXRBs) have traditionally been discovered by X-ray surveys with cadences of hours to days. However, large optical time-domain surveys now provide novel…
Fading into darkness: A weak mass ejection and low-efficiency fallback accompanying black hole formation in M31-2014-DS1
Kishalay De, Morgan MacLeod, Jacob E. Jencson +10
Stellar-mass black holes (BHs) can form from the near-complete collapse of massive stars, causing them to abruptly disappear. The star M31-2014-DS1 in the Andromeda galaxy was repo…
SPHEREx as a frontier for infrared transients: Classification of new Galactic FU Ori outbursts and classical novae
Viraj Karambelkar, Kishalay De, Lynne A. Hillenbrand +3
We demonstrate proof-of-concept of a new strategy for studying infrared (IR) transients enabled by the newly launched SPHEREx space mission, by leveraging its synergy with the NEOW…
Peculiar SN Ic 2022esa: An explosion of a massive Wolf-Rayet star in a binary as a precursor to a BH-BH binary?
Keiichi Maeda, Hanindyo Kuncarayakti, Takashi Nagao +4
A class of supernovae (SNe) termed `SN Ic-CSM' are characterized by late-time emergence of narrow emission lines of elements formed in the oxygen core of a massive star. A popular…
