Coupled Shock Cooling and Radioactive Heating in the Type IIb Supernova SN 2024aecx: An Extended Envelope and Rapid Optical Decline
Na Wei, Yu-Hao Zhang, Liang-Duan Liu +4
SN~2024aecx is a nearby, rapidly evolving stripped-envelope supernova with a prominent double-peaked ultraviolet--optical light curve. We model its multiband evolution with an exte…
\texttt{TransFit-MAG}: Self-Consistent Modeling of Magnetar-Powered Transients from Shock Breakout to Spin-Down Heating
Jing-Yao Li, Liang-Duan Liu, Yun-Wei Yu +2
Magnetar engines are widely invoked to power luminous optical transients, but their early emission depends on the coupled evolution of engine injection, shock heating, adiabatic co…
TransFit-CSM: A Fast, Physically Consistent Framework for Interaction-Powered Transients
Yu-Hao Zhang, Liang-Duan Liu, Ze-Xin Du +3
We present TransFit-CSM, a fast and physically consistent framework for modeling interaction-powered transients. The method self-consistently couples the ejecta circumstellar mediu…
TransFit: An Efficient Framework for Transient Light-Curve Fitting with Time-Dependent Radiative Diffusion
Liang-Duan Liu, Yu-Hao Zhang, Yun-Wei Yu +4
Modeling the light curves (LCs) of luminous astronomical transients, such as supernovae, is crucial for understanding their progenitor physics, particularly with the exponential gr…
