Wild behaviour near the finish line: the Type Ibn SN 2020able and its stratified environment
L. Tartaglia, E. Cappellaro, G. Valerin +29
We present spectrophotometric observations of the Type Ibn supernova SN~2020able, along with a comprehensive analysis and modelling of its evolution. The transient occurred in SDSS…
SN 2022xus: bridging the gap between Type IIP and IIL supernovae
Monalisa Dubey, Kuntal Misra, Naveen Dukiya +16
We present optical photometric and spectroscopic observations of the Type~II supernova SN~2022xus. The SN reached its peak {\em V} band magnitude of mag within 7 day…
Evidence for Asymmetric Ejecta and Circumstellar Material in SN 2023ixf Inferred from Extensive Nebular-phase Observations
Brian Hsu, Nathan Smith, K. Azalee Bostroem +34
We present extensive optical and near-infrared (NIR) observations of the nearby Type II supernova (SN II) 2023ixf in the nebular phase from +89 days to +749 days after explosion, s…
SN 2020bij and a Possible Slow-Rise High-Velocity Subclass of Type IIP Supernovae
Sondos Mohsen-Tanev, Iair Arcavi, Shahar Bracha +17
Mapping how the explosion properties of Type II supernovae (SNe II) relate to the properties of their progenitors can provide strong constraints for understanding the final evoluti…
JWST Observations of Calcium-Strong Transients: I. Complex Nebular He Emission in SN 2024uj
Saarah Hall, Lindsey A. Kwok, Aravind P. Ravi +29
We present the first JWST observations of a Calcium-Strong Transient (CaST), SN 2024uj, a rare class of supernovae (SNe) with observable properties that are consistent with both th…
SN 2023rve: A Type II Supernova with No Nebular Oxygen
Melissa Rosowsky, Stefano Valenti, Aravind P. Ravi +21
We report on multiband photometric and spectroscopic observations of SN 2023rve, a nearby Type II supernova (SN II) discovered in galaxy NGC 1097 (D= Mpc). Nearby SNe…
