In-Situ Star Formation in a Thick Disk: A Model for Metal Enrichment of Mrk 573

Hannalore J. Gerling-Dunsmore, Mitchell C. Begelman, Jared A. Goldberg +2

Recent observations of the nearby Seyfert galaxy Mrk 573 found that the galactic nucleus and bicone regions surrounding the jet are significantly metal-enriched. In this paper, we…

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…

Traces of Helium Detected in Type Ic Supernova 2014L

Jing Lu, Wolfgang E. Kerzendorf, John T. O'Brien +6

The absence of helium features in optical spectra is one of the classification criteria for Type Ic supernovae (SNe Ic). However, it is highly debated whether helium is truly absen…

Radial Velocity Evidence for a Post-Mass-Transfer Massive Binary System NaSt1

Kittipong Wangnok, Samaporn Tinyanont, Ryan M. Lau +11

We present multi-epoch high-resolution optical spectroscopy () of the emission-line object NaSt1 to test its proposed binary nature, along with long-term multiba…

SN 2024iss: A Multi-Wavelength Exposé of a Type IIb Supernova with an Early-Time Ultraviolet Spectrum and Shock Breakout Constraints

Rujula Yete, Wynn Jacobson-Galan, Ferdinand Ferdinand +49

We present multi-wavelength observations and a comprehensive analysis of the nearby (D14 Mpc) Type IIb supernova (SN IIb) 2024iss. Observations of SN2024iss include an early…

Calibrating Eruptive Mass Loss in Red Supergiants with Local Group Data

Shelley J. Cheng, Charlie Conroy, Jared A. Goldberg

We calibrate a physically motivated, super-Eddington eruptive mass-loss prescription for red supergiants (RSGs) using Local Group stellar populations. Building on MESA models that…

AT 2024ahzi: A Type IIP Supernova Discovered by the LSST Commissioning Camera

Kaylee de Soto, V. Ashley Villar, Jared A. Goldberg +25

As part of its commissioning, the Vera C. Rubin Observatory observed several fields repeatedly for a month with ComCam, an instrument that uses the same hardware as the LSST camera…

r-Process Nucleosynthesis and Radioactively Powered Transients from Magnetar Giant Flares

Anirudh Patel, Brian D. Metzger, Jared A. Goldberg +3

We present nucleosynthesis and light-curve predictions for a new site of the rapid neutron capture process (-process) from magnetar giant flares (GFs). Motivated by observations…

Direct evidence for r-process nucleosynthesis in delayed MeV emission from the SGR 1806-20 magnetar giant flare

Anirudh Patel, Brian D. Metzger, Jakub Cehula +3

The origin of heavy elements synthesized through the rapid neutron capture process (-process) has been an enduring mystery for over half a century. Cehula et al. (2024) recently…

A Buddy for Betelgeuse: Binarity as the Origin of the Long Secondary Period in Orionis

Jared A. Goldberg, Meridith Joyce, László Molnár

We predict the existence of Ori B, a low-mass companion orbiting Betelgeuse. This is motivated by the presence of a 2170-day Long Secondary Period (LSP) in Betelgeuse's lightcu…

She's Got Her Mother's Hair: Unveiling the Origin of Black Hole Magnetic Fields through Stellar to Collapsar Simulations

Ore Gottlieb, Mathieu Renzo, Brian D. Metzger +2

Relativistic jets from a Kerr black hole (BH) following the core collapse of a massive star ("collapsar") is a leading model for gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). However, the two key ingre…

A Model for Eruptive Mass Loss in Massive Stars

Shelley J. Cheng, Jared A. Goldberg, Matteo Cantiello +3

Eruptive mass loss in massive stars is known to occur, but the mechanism(s) are not yet well-understood. One proposed physical explanation appeals to opacity-driven super-Eddington…

Long Plateau Doth So: How Internal Heating Sources Affect Hydrogen-Rich Supernova Light Curves

Tatsuya Matsumoto, Brian D. Metzger, Jared A. Goldberg

Some hydrogen-rich core-collapse supernovae (type IIP SNe) exhibit evidence for a sustained energy source powering their light curves, resulting in a brighter and/or longer-lasting…

The Effects of -Process Enrichment in Hydrogen-Rich Supernovae

Anirudh Patel, Jared A. Goldberg, Mathieu Renzo +1

Core-collapse supernovae are candidate sites for the rapid neutron capture process (-process). We explore the effects of enrichment from -process nuclei on the light-curves o…

Some stars fade quietly: Varied Supernova explosion outcomes and their effects on the multi-phase interstellar medium

Ulrich P. Steinwandel, Jared A. Goldberg

We present results from galaxy evolution simulations with a mutiphase Interstellar medium (ISM), a mass resolution of M and a spatial resolution of 0.5 pc. These simu…
