ZTF SN Ia DR2 follow-up: early excess in Type Ia supernova light curves
Tomás E. Müller-Bravo, Kate Maguire, Alaa Alburai +15
There is broad consensus that Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are the thermonuclear explosions of C/O white dwarfs (WDs) in binary systems, but their progenitors and explosion mechanis…
Not All Who Wander Are Lost: Early Excess Demographics in the Volume-limited ZTF DR2 SN Ia Sample
César Rojas-Bravo, Ning-Chen Sun, Mathew Smith +7
Early-time flux excesses in Type Ia supernovae (SNe~Ia) offer a unique insight into their progenitor systems and explosion mechanisms. Although individual early-excess events and l…
A Natural Telescope: Discovery of the Strongly Lensed Type II SN 2025mkn at
Cameron Lemon, Ariel Goobar, Joel Johansson +90
We present the discovery of SN 2025mkn, a gravitationally lensed Type II supernova. First detected as a blue transient in ZTF, 0.83 from a elliptical gala…
The La Silla Schmidt Southern Survey
Adam A. Miller, Natasha S. Abrams, Greg Aldering +75
We present the La Silla Schmidt Southern Survey (LS4), a new wide-field, time-domain survey to be conducted with the 1 m ESO Schmidt telescope. The 268 megapixel LS4 camera mosaics…
Testing and Combining Transient Spectral Classification Tools on 4MOST-like Blended Spectra
Andrew Milligan, Isobel Hook, Christopher Frohmaier +15
With the 4-meter Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope (4MOST) expected to provide an influx of transient spectra when it begins observations in early 2026 we consider the potential…
ZTF SN Ia DR2: Overview
Mickael Rigault, Mathew Smith, Ariel Goobar +53
We present the first homogeneous release of several thousand Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), all having spectroscopic classification, and spectroscopic redshifts for half the sample.…
Early-time spectroscopic modelling of the transitional Type Ia Supernova 2021rhu with TARDIS
Luke Harvey, Kate Maguire, Mark R. Magee +15
An open question in SN Ia research is where the boundary lies between 'normal' Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) that are used in cosmological measurements and those that sit off the Phi…
