Eclipsing white dwarf from the Zwicky Transient Facility: II. Seven eclipsing double white dwarfs

J. van Roestel, K. Burdge, I. Caiazzo +15

In a systematic search for eclipsing white dwarfs using Zwicky transient facility (ZTF) data, we found seven eclipsing double white dwarfs with orbital periods ranging from 45 minu…

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.…

Cyclotron emitting magnetic white dwarfs in post common envelope binaries discovered with the Zwicky Transient Facility

J. van Roestel, A. C. Rodriguez, P. Szkody +20

We present the discovery of 14 new (and recovery of 4 known) low accretion rate magnetic white dwarfs in post-common envelope binaries that emit strong cyclotron emission using the…

Variability of Central Stars of Planetary Nebulae with the Zwicky Transient Facility. I. Methods, Short-Timescale Variables, Binary Candidates, and the Unusual Nucleus of WeSb 1

Soumyadeep Bhattacharjee, S. R. Kulkarni, Albert K. H. Kong +16

Over the past several decades, time-series photometry of CSPNe has yielded significant results including, but not limited to, discoveries of nearly 100 binary systems, insights int…

ZTF SN Ia DR2: The spectral diversity of Type Ia supernovae in a volume-limited sample

U. Burgaz, K. Maguire, G. Dimitriadis +30

More than 3000 spectroscopically confirmed Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are presented in the Zwicky Transient Facility SN Ia Data Release 2 (ZTF DR2). In this paper, we detail the s…

Spectroscopic observations of progenitor activity 100 days before a Type Ibn supernova

S. J. Brennan, J. Sollerman, I. Irani +30

Obtaining spectroscopic observations of the progenitors of core-collapse supernovae is often unfeasible due to an inherent lack of knowledge as to which stars will go supernova and…

Four new eclipsing accreting ultracompact white dwarf binaries found with the Zwicky Transient Facility

J. M. Khalil, J. van Roestel, E. C. Bellm +10

Context. Accreting ultracompact binaries contain a white dwarf that is accreting from a degenerate object and have orbital periods shorter than 65 minutes. Aims. The aims of this l…

SN 2021adxl: A luminous nearby interacting supernova in an extremely low metallicity environment

S. J. Brennan, S. Schulze, R. Lunnan +17

SN 2021adxl is a slowly evolving, luminous, Type IIn supernova with asymmetric emission line profiles, similar to the well-studied SN 2010jl. We present extensive optical, near-ult…

SN 2012aa - a transient between Type Ibc core-collapse and superluminous supernovae

R. Roy, J. Sollerman, J. M. Silverman +21

Context: Research on supernovae (SNe) over the past decade has confirmed that there is a distinct class of events which are much more luminous (by mag) than canonical core-…
