Panchromatic JWST Observations and Models of the Dim Type Iax Supernova 2024vjm at 200 days

E Baron, J. M. DerKacy, C. Ashall +23

We report JWST spectra and photometry of the underluminous SN Iax 2024vjm obtained 202.8 restframe days post-explosion. The spectrum exhibits a rich set of forbidden lines from low…

The Production of Electron-Capture Elements in Thermonuclear Supernovae: Theory vs. Observations

S. Shiber, P. Hoeflich, T. Mera +9

Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) explosively destroy carbon-oxygen white dwarfs (WDs) in multiple stellar systems. They produce approximately 50% of the iron-group elements in the Unive…

Filling The Pockets: The Spherical Nature of 3D Deflagration in Thermonuclear Supernovae

S. Shiber, P. Hoeflich, T. Mera +9

We investigate thermonuclear explosions within the delayed detonation framework. While spherical delayed detonation models generally reproduce key observational features, a fundame…

An axisymmetric shock breakout indicated by prompt polarized emission from the type II supernova 2024ggi

Yi Yang, Xudong Wen, Lifan Wang +18

The death of massive stars is triggered by an infall-induced bounce shock that disrupts the star. How such a shock is launched and propagates through the star is a decade-long puzz…

JWST Observations of SN 2024ggi II: NIRSpec Spectroscopy and CO Modeling at 285 and 385 Days Past the Explosion

T. Mera, C. Ashall, P. Hoeflich +20

We present James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) NIRSpec observations of SN~2024ggi, spanning wavelengths of 1.7--5.5 micron at +285.51 and +385.27 days post-explosion. These nebular s…

JWST Observations of SN 2023ixf II: The Panchromatic Evolution Between 250 and 720 Days After the Explosion

K. Medler, C. Ashall, P. Hoeflich +60

We present the nebular phase spectroscopic and photometric observations of the nearby hydrogen-rich core-collapse supernova (CC-SN) 2023ixf, obtained through our JWST programs. The…
