SN 2024afyu interpreted as a Pair Instability Supernova
P. J. Pessi, S. Barmentloo, Ł. Wyrzykowski +63
Pair-instability supernovae (PISNe) are the predicted explosions of very massive stars triggered by electron-positron pair production. Numerous transients have been proposed as PIS…
Peak 'Nebular' Emission and Early Flux Excesses in Ca-strong Supernovae
C. -G. Touchard-Paxton, K. Maguire, C. Frohmaier +27
Calcium-strong supernovae (Ca-strong SNe) are a class of thermonuclear transient characterised by rapid photometric evolution (rise times of <= 16 d) and nebular-phase spectra domi…
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…
Illuminating the Local Universe: Large-Scale Structure from ZTF Type Ia Supernovae
Antoine Gilles Lordet, Ariel Goobar, Jens Jasche +12
Within the volume-limited subsample at of the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) DR2 sample, we confirm a statistically significant excess of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) arou…
Photometric classification of supernovae detected by the Zwicky Transient Facility using noise augmentation
A. Townsend, J. Nordin, M. Kowalski +27
Modern time-domain surveys, such as the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF), detect far more extragalactic transients than can be spectroscopically classified. Photometric classificati…
The nearby He-rich superluminous supernova SN 2021bnw during photospheric phases
A. Fiore, A. Kozyreva, L. Yan +40
Aim. We present and interpret the data of the nearby hydrogen-deficient but helium-rich superluminous supernova SN 2021bnw which reached a magnitude of -20.7 at maximum luminosity…
Study of the anisotropy of cosmic expansion on ZTF type Iasupernovae simulations
C. Barjou-Delayre, P. Rosnet, C. Ravoux +29
The cosmological principle assumes the isotropy of the Universe at large scales. It is a foundational assumption in the CDM model, which is the current standard model of cosmolo…
ZTF-SEDm Type Ia supernova sample for Twins Embedding spectrophotometric standardization
C. Ganot, Y. Copin, M. Rigault +26
This paper has two aims: the first aim is to build a large homogeneous spectrophotometric sample of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), using 3069 spectra from the second data release of…
Spectroscopic Classification of Extragalactic Transients from CRTS
A. J. Drake, S. G. Djorgovski, M. J. Graham +5
The Catalina Real-time Transient Survey (CRTS) carried out a public survey for optical transients between 2007 and 2019, discovering more than 16,000 transient candidates. Here we…
ZTF SNe Ia DR2: Towards cosmology-grade ZTF supernova light curves using scene modeling photometry
L. Lacroix, N. Regnault, T. de Jaeger +36
The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) is conducting a wide-field survey of the northern sky in three optical bands and the collaboration cosmology working group has released 3628 spe…
ZTF SN Ia DR2 follow-up: Exploring the origin of the Type Ia supernova host galaxy step through Si II velocities
U. Burgaz, K. Maguire, L. Galbany +18
The relationship between Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) and their host galaxy stellar masses is well documented. In particular, Hubble residuals display a luminosity shift based on ho…
Eclipsing white dwarf from the Zwicky Transient Facility: II. Seven eclipsing double white dwarfs
J. van Roestel, K. Burdge, I. Caiazzo +15
In a systematic search for eclipsing white dwarfs using Zwicky transient facility (ZTF) data, we found seven eclipsing double white dwarfs with orbital periods ranging from 45 minu…
Precursor Activity Preceding Interacting Supernovae I: Bridging the Gap with SN 2022mop
S. J. Brennan, S. Barmentloo, S. Schulze +41
Over the past two decades, an increasing number of transients have shown luminous activity at their explosion sites weeks to years before an interacting supernova (SN) is observed.…
Cyclotron emitting magnetic white dwarfs in post common envelope binaries discovered with the Zwicky Transient Facility

We present the discovery of 14 new (and recovery of 4 known) low accretion rate magnetic white dwarfs in post-common envelope binaries that emit strong cyclotron emission using the…
