SN 2021ukt: A Transitional Supernova with a Short Plateau and Persistent Interaction

Neil R. Pichay, Sergiy S. Vasylyev, Audrey M. Liddle +21

We present spectroscopic and photometric observations of supernova (SN) 2021ukt, a peculiar short-plateau object that was originally identified as a Type IIn SN and later underwent…

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…

Spectropolarimetric Evolution of SN 2023ixf: an Asymmetric Explosion in a Confined Aspherical Circumstellar Medium

Sergiy S. Vasylyev, Luc Dessart, Yi Yang +15

We present complete spectropolarimetric coverage of the Type II supernova (SN) 2023ixf ranging from 1 to 120 days after explosion. Polarimetry was obtained with the Kast double spe…

Very Late-Time JWST and Keck Spectra of the Oxygen-Rich Supernova 1995N

Geoffrey C. Clayton, R. Wesson, Ori D. Fox +43

We present new {\it JWST}/MIRI MRS and Keck spectra of SN 1995N obtained in 2022--2023, more than 10,000 days after the supernova (SN) explosion. These spectra are among the latest…

A post-common-envelope binary with double-peaked Balmer emission lines from TMTS

Qichun Liu, Xiaofeng Wang, Jie Lin +20

The dynamical method provides an efficient way to discover post-common-envelope binaries (PCEB) with faint white dwarfs (WDs), thanks to the development of time-domain survey proje…

Detection of [C I] Emission in Nebular Spectra of a Peculiar Type Ia Supernova 2022pul

Jialian Liu, Xiaofeng Wang, Yi Yang +6

SN 2022pul gains special attention due to its possible origin of a super-Chandarsekhar-mass white dwarf explosion (or called a 03fg-like type Ia supernova), which shows prominent […
