SN 2019cqc: A Hydrogen-rich Superluminous Supernova Showing Electron-Scattering Signatures

Dinesh Hebbar, Rupak Roy, Matt Nicholl +15

Hydrogen-rich superluminous supernovae without narrow emission lines (SLSNe-II) are rare transients whose powering mechanisms remain debated, particularly the role of circumstellar…

The extremely low-luminosity Type Iax SNe 2022ywf and 2023zgx

Barnabás Barna, Dominik Bánhidi, Tamás Szalai +25

We present the optical follow-up of SNe 2022ywf and 2023zgx, two examples from the Iax subclass of thermonuclear supernova (SN) events. With peak absolute magnitudes of $M_\mathrm{…

A Faint Progenitor System for the Faint Supernova 2024vjm

Erez A. Zimmerman, Avishay Gal-Yam, Paul J. Groot +68

Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) are well known for their role as standardizable cosmological candles. Their uniformity is credited to their single origin as thermonuclear explosions of…

An Archival Optical Counterpart Search for Extragalactic Fast X-Ray Transients Discovered by Einstein Probe

Run-Duo Liang, Wen-Xiong Li, Liang-Duan Liu +50

Extragalactic fast X-ray transients (eFXTs) represent a rapidly growing class of high-energy phenomena, whose physical origins remain poorly understood. With its wide-field, sensit…
