An analysis of the Type Ia SN 2024gy and a comparison of different host extinction estimation techniques
Jacco H. Terwel, Kate Maguire, Cillian O'Donnell +38
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are well-known standardisable candles, and are one of the main ways to measure the distance to their host galaxies. However, extinction due to interstel…
AT 2025abao: The fourth luminous red nova in M 31
A. Reguitti, A. Pastorello, G. Valerin +15
We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of the luminous red nova (LRN) AT 2025abao, the fourth discovered in M 31. The LRN, associated to the asymptotic giant branch…
SN 2024abvb: a Type Ibn/Icn supernova with evidence of helium and an extreme offset from its host galaxy
Callum Aster, Cosimo Inserra, Andrea Pastorello +27
We present spectroscopic and photometric observations and analysis of SN 2024abvb, a peculiar transitional Type Ibn/Icn supernova located at an unusually large projected distance f…
AGN in Gaia Alerts: from flares to Changing Look Quasars
M. Dennefeld, T. Pursimo, C. Carvalho +11
The Gaia Alerts system is providing alerts on a variety of objects displaying a significant photometric change detected by the Gaia satellite from one passage to the next one over…
AT2024wpp: An Extremely Luminous Fast Ultraviolet Transient Powered by Accretion onto a Black Hole
Daniel A. Perley, Anna Y. Q. Ho, Zoë McGrath +69
We present the discovery of AT 2024wpp ("Whippet"), a fast and luminous 18cow-like transient. At a redshift of z=0.0868, revealed by Keck Cosmic Web Imager spectroscopy of its fain…
SN 2024cld: unveiling the complex mass-loss histories of evolved supergiant progenitors to core collapse supernovae
T. L. Killestein, M. Pursiainen, R. Kotak +52
Pre-explosion mass loss in supernova (SN) progenitors is a crucial unknown factor in stellar evolution, yet has been illuminated recently by the diverse zoo of interacting transien…
A real-time search for Type Ia Supernovae with late-time CSM interaction in ZTF
Jacco H. Terwel, Kate Maguire, Seán J. Brennan +20
The nature of Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) progenitor systems and the mechanisms that lead up to their explosions are still widely debated. In rare cases the SN ejecta interact with c…
The Double Tidal Disruption Event AT 2022dbl Implies That at Least Some "Standard" Optical TDEs are Partial Disruptions
Lydia Makrygianni, Iair Arcavi, Megan Newsome +37
Flares produced following the tidal disruption of stars by supermassive black holes can reveal the properties of the otherwise dormant majority of black holes and the physics of ac…
Advancing accuracy in age determinations of old-disk stars using an oscillating red giant in an eclipsing binary
J. S. Thomsen, A. Miglio, K. Brogaard +26
The study of resonant oscillation modes in low-mass red giant branch stars enables their ages to be inferred with exceptional (10%) precision, unlocking the possibility to re…
