The hydrogen-free circumstellar interaction in the Type Ib supernova 2021efd: A clue to the mechanism of the helium-layer stripping
N. Pyykkinen, T. Nagao, H. Kuncarayakti +27
Stripped-envelope supernovae (SESNe), including Type IIb, Ib, and Ic supernovae (SNe), originate from the explosions of massive stars whose outer envelopes have been largely remove…
Eruptive mass loss less than a year before the explosion of superluminous supernovae. II. A systematic search for pre-explosion eruptions with VLT/X-shooter
A. Gkini, C. Fransson, R. Lunnan +22
We present X-shooter observations of a sample of 21 hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe-I), spanning a redshift range of z=0.13-0.95, aimed at searching for shells of cir…
SN 2021lwz: Another Exotic Luminous and Fast Evolving Optical Stripped Envelope Supernova ?
F. Poidevin, S. L. West, C. M. B. Omand +25
Current large-scale, high-cadence surveys, such as the ZTF, provide detections of new and rare types of transients and supernovae whose physical origins are not well understood. We…
MUSE IFU observations of galaxies hosting Tidal Disruption Events
M. Pursiainen, G. Leloudas, J. Lyman +14
We present an analysis of twenty tidal disruption event (TDE) host galaxies observed with the MUSE integral-field spectrograph on ESO VLT. We investigate the presence of extended e…
A thermonuclear supernova interacting with hydrogen- and helium-deficient circumstellar material. SN 2020aeuh as a SN Ia-CSM-C/O?
K. Tsalapatas, J. Sollerman, R. Chiba +20
Identifying the progenitors of thermonuclear supernovae (Type Ia supernovae; SNe Ia) remains a key objective in contemporary astronomy. The rare subclass of SNe Ia that interacts w…
Luminous, rapidly declining supernovae as stripped transitional objects in low metallicity environments: the case of SN 2022lxg
P. Charalampopoulos, R. Kotak, J. Sollerman +24
We present an analysis of the optical and near-infrared properties of SN 2022lxg, a bright ( mag) and rapidly evolving SN. It was discovered withi…
The ambiguous AT2022rze: Changing-look AGN mimicking a supernova in a merging galaxy system
P. J. Pessi, R. Lunnan, J. Sollerman +36
AT2022rze is a luminous, ambiguous transient located South-East of the geometric center of its host galaxy at redshift z = 0.08. The host appears to be formed by a merging galaxy s…
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.…
