Search For a Counterpart to the Subsolar Mass Gravitational Wave Candidate S251112cm

Nicholas Vieira, Noah Franz, Bhagya Subrayan +49

The recent candidate gravitational-wave (GW) alert from a compact object merger involving at least one subsolar mass (SSM) object has prompted questions about their origins. S25111…

On the Binary Nature of the Progenitor of SN2015ap: Insights from Its Light Curve and Spectral Evolution

Fabio Ragosta, Giulia Illiano, Andrea Simongini +3

Stripped-envelope supernovae (SESNe) display a wide range of photometric and spectroscopic behaviours, often reflecting complex progenitor evolution. SN~2015ap is a type Ib event l…

Stripped-envelope supernova light curves argue for central engine activity

Ósmar Rodríguez, Ehud Nakar, Dan Maoz

The luminosity of ``stripped-envelope supernovae'', a common type of stellar explosions, has been generally thought to be driven by the radioactive decay of the nickel synthesized…

The Iron Yield of Core-collapse Supernovae

Ósmar Rodríguez, Dan Maoz, Ehud Nakar

We present a systematic analysis of 191 stripped-envelope supernovae (SE SNe), aimed to compute their Ni masses from the luminosity in their radioactive tails ($M_\mathrm{Ni…

Luminosity distribution of Type II supernova progenitors

Ósmar Rodríguez

I present progenitor luminosities () for a sample of 112 Type II supernovae (SNe II), computed directly from progenitor photometry and the bolometric correction technique, or in…

SOAR/Goodman Spectroscopic Assessment of Candidate Counterparts of the LIGO-Virgo Event GW190814

Douglas Tucker, Matthew Wiesner, Sahar Allam +140

On 2019 August 14 at 21:10:39 UTC, the LIGO/Virgo Collaboration (LVC) detected a possible neutron star-black hole merger (NSBH), the first ever identified. An extensive search for…
