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…
Late-time JWST/NIRCam Observations of the Extremely Long-duration GRB 250702B/EP 250702a and Its Host Galaxy
Huei Sears, Jean J. Somalwar, Ryan Chornock +22
We present JWST/NIRCam observations of the extremely long-duration gamma-ray burst (GRB) 250702B taken at ~ 95 days post-GRB (observer frame). The observations of the host galaxy r…
JWST Nebular Spectroscopy of SN 2023qov: Circumstellar Dust Emission in a Normal Type Ia Supernova
Colin W. Macrie, Conor Larison, Huei Sears +42
We present panchromatic observations of the Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2023qov, ranging from 2 weeks before to 1 year after maximum light. \textit{JWST} near- and mid-in…
