SN 2017gci: a nearby Type I Superluminous Supernova with a bumpy tail

Achille Fiore, Ting-Wan Chen, Anders Jerkstrand +26

We present and discuss the optical spectro-photometric observations of the nearby (z=0.087) Type I superluminous supernova (SLSN I) SN 2017gci, whose peak K-corrected absolute magn…

Accretion disc cooling and narrow absorption lines in the tidal disruption event AT 2019dsg

G. Cannizzaro, T. Wevers, P. G. Jonker +23

We present the results of a large multi-wavelength follow-up campaign of the Tidal Disruption Event (TDE) \dsg, focusing on low to high resolution optical spectroscopy, X-ray, and…

SN 2019muj -- a well-observed Type Iax supernova that bridges the luminosity gap of the class

Barnabás Barna, Tamás Szalai, Saurabh W. Jha +38

We present early-time ( days) observations of SN 2019muj (= ASASSN-19tr), one of the best-observed members of the peculiar SN Iax class. Ultraviolet and optical photometri…

The First Data Release of CNIa0.02 -- A Complete Nearby (Redshift <0.02) Sample of Type Ia Supernova Light Curves

Ping Chen, Subo Dong, C. S. Kochanek +41

The CNIa0.02 project aims to collect a complete, nearby sample of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) light curves, and the SNe are volume-limited with host-galaxy redshifts z_host < 0.02.…

Luminous Type II Short-Plateau Supernovae 2006Y, 2006ai, and 2016egz: A Transitional Class from Stripped Massive Red Supergiants

Daichi Hiramatsu, D. Andrew Howell, Takashi J. Moriya +21

The diversity of Type II supernovae (SNe II) is thought to be driven mainly by differences in their progenitor's hydrogen-rich (H-rich) envelope mass, with SNe IIP having long plat…

Gaia18aen: First symbiotic star discovered by Gaia

J. Merc, J. Mikołajewska, M. Gromadzki +20

Besides the astrometric mission of the Gaia satellite, its repeated and high-precision measurements serve also as an all-sky photometric transient survey. The sudden brightenings o…
