An embedded X-ray source shines through the aspherical AT2018cow: revealing the inner workings of the most luminous fast-evolving optical transients

Raffaella Margutti, B. D. Metzger, R. Chornock +41

We present the first extensive radio to gamma-ray observations of a fast-rising blue optical transient (FBOT), AT2018cow, over its first ~100 days. AT2018cow rose over a few days t…

Molecular gas toward supernova remnant Cassiopeia A

Ping Zhou, Jiang-Tao Li, Zhi-Yu Zhang +5

We mapped 12CO J=1-0, 12CO J=2-1, 13CO J=1-0, and 13CO J=2-1 lines toward supernova remnant (SNR) Cassiopeia A with the IRAM 30m telescope. The molecular clouds (MCs) along the lin…

Evidence for a pulsar wind nebula in the Type Ib-peculiar supernova SN 2012au

Dan Milisavljevic, Daniel J. Patnaude, Roger A. Chevalier +5

We present an optical spectrum of the energetic Type Ib supernova (SN) 2012au obtained at an unprecedented epoch of 6.2 years after explosion. Forbidden transition emission lines o…

Serendipitous Discovery of a 14-year-old Supernova at 16 Mpc

James Guillochon, Jorge Stockler de Moraes, Matt Nicholl +5

In this Research Note we present a serendipitous discovery of the transient CGS2004A (AT2004iu) in an image collected by the Carnegie-Irvine Galaxy Survey of the Scd: galaxy NGC 18…

Investigating the Structure of Vela X

P. Slane, I. Lovchinsky, C. Kolb +9

Vela X is the prototypical example of a pulsar wind nebula whose morphology and detailed structure have been affected by the interaction with the reverse shock of its host supernov…

Chandrasekhar and sub-Chandrasekhar models for the X-ray emission of Type Ia supernova remnants (I): Bulk properties

Héctor Martínez-Rodríguez, Carles Badenes, Shiu-Hang Lee +9

Type Ia supernovae originate from the explosion of carbon-oxygen white dwarfs in binary systems, but the exact nature of their progenitors remains elusive. The bulk properties of T…
