AT2025agpz in Rubin commissioning data: distinguishing a luminous interacting supernova from nuclear transients in compact galaxies

C. R. Angus, M. Quilt, H. F. Stevance +37

The Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time will discover unprecedented numbers of rare, long-lived optical transients, many of which will be too faint or too n…

ENGRAVE follow-up of a type IIb supernova spatially coincident with the sub-threshold gravitational wave trigger S250818k

K. Ackley, M. T. Botticella, A. Boye +54

The candidate gravitational wave (GW) event S250818k was one of only three non-retracted LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA public alerts issued during the fourth observing run of the network (O4) w…

A Faint Progenitor System for the Faint Supernova 2024vjm

Erez A. Zimmerman, Avishay Gal-Yam, Paul J. Groot +68

Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) are well known for their role as standardizable cosmological candles. Their uniformity is credited to their single origin as thermonuclear explosions of…

AT2024wpp: An Extremely Luminous Fast Ultraviolet Transient Powered by Accretion onto a Black Hole

Daniel A. Perley, Anna Y. Q. Ho, Zoë McGrath +69

We present the discovery of AT 2024wpp ("Whippet"), a fast and luminous 18cow-like transient. At a redshift of z=0.0868, revealed by Keck Cosmic Web Imager spectroscopy of its fain…

Detection of disk-jet co-precession in a tidal disruption event

Yanan Wang, Zikun Lin, Linhui Wu +46

Theories and simulations predict that intense spacetime curvature near black holes bends the trajectories of light and matter, driving disk and jet precession under relativistic to…

Exploring the origins of high-velocity features in SNe Ia with the spectral synthesis code TARDIS

Luke Harvey, Kate Maguire, Alexander Holas +8

Appearing as secondary higher-velocity absorption components, high-velocity features (HVFs) have been observed in several absorption lines in many Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). The…
