Tomography analysis of the intermediate-luminosity Type Iax SN 2024pxl

Barnabás Barna, Mridweeka Singh, Lindsey A. Kwok +90

We present an abundance tomography analysis of SN 2024pxl, an intermediate luminosity Type Iax supernova ( mag), with the most-detailed follow-up in the Type…

JWST and Keck observations of the off-nuclear tidal disruption event TDE 2025abcr: An evolving reprocessing layer

Kishore C. Patra, Emily R. Liepold, Nicholas Earl +14

Off-nuclear tidal disruption events (TDEs) provide a rare probe of massive black holes (MBHs) outside galactic nuclei. Only a handful are known, including five X-ray-selected candi…

The Double-Peaked Calcium-Strong SN 2025coe: Progenitor Constraints from Early Interaction and Ejecta Asymmetries

Aravind P. Ravi, Sahana Kumar, Raphael Baer-Way +47

Supernova (SN) 2025coe at a distance of 25 Mpc is the second-closest calcium-strong (CaST) transient. It was discovered at a large projected offset of 34 kpc from its p…

GRB 230307A Formed No Dust or Was Not a Binary Neutron Star Merger

Prasiddha Arunachalam, Phillip Macias, Ryan. J. Foley

We present a new analysis of the JWST infrared spectra of GRB 230307A (AT 2023vfi), a long gamma-ray burst (GRB) with an infrared excess and spectral lines suggestive of significan…

JWST and Keck Observations of the Off-Nuclear TDE AT 2024tvd: A Massive Nuclear Star Cluster and Minor-Merger Origin for its Black Hole

Kishore C. Patra, Ryan J. Foley, Nicholas Earl +10

We present JWST/NIRSpec and NIRCam observations of the first optically selected off-nuclear tidal disruption event (TDE), AT 2024tvd, along with Keck/KCWI integral field unit spect…

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…

A Panchromatic View of Late-time Shock Power in the Type II Supernova 2023ixf

W. V. Jacobson-Galán, L. Dessart, C. D. Kilpatrick +39

We present multi-wavelength observations of the type II supernova (SN II) 2023ixf during its first two years of evolution. We combine ground-based optical/NIR spectroscopy with Hub…
