Late-time HST and JWST Observations of GRB 221009A: Evidence for a Break in the Light Curve at 50 Days
Huei Sears, Ryan Chornock, Peter Blanchard +12
GRB 221009A is one of the brightest transients ever observed with the highest peak gamma-ray flux for a gamma-ray burst (GRB). A type Ic-BL supernova (SN), SN 2022xiw, was definiti…
Rubin ToO 2024: Envisioning the Vera C. Rubin Observatory LSST Target of Opportunity program
Igor Andreoni, Raffaella Margutti, John Banovetz +86
The Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) at Vera C. Rubin Observatory is planned to begin in the Fall of 2025. The LSST survey cadence has been designed via a community-driven pr…
Explaining Non-Merger Gamma-Ray Bursts and Broad-Lined Supernovae with Close Binary Progenitors with Black Hole Central Engine
Christopher L. Fryer, Eric Burns, Anna Y. Q. Ho +5
For over 25 years, the origin of long-duration gamma-ray bursts (lGRBs) has been linked to the collapse of rotating massive stars. However, we have yet to pinpoint the stellar prog…
SN 2021foa: The "Flip-Flop" Type IIn / Ibn supernova
D. Farias, C. Gall, G. Narayan +29
We present a comprehensive analysis of the photometric and spectroscopic evolution of SN~2021foa, unique among the class of transitional supernovae for repeatedly changing its spec…
PS1-11aop: Probing the Mass Loss History of a Luminous Interacting Supernova Prior to its Final Eruption with Multi-wavelength Observations
Adaeze L. Ibik, Maria R. Drout, Raffaela Margutti +14
Luminous interacting supernovae are a class of stellar explosions whose progenitors underwent vigorous mass loss in the years prior to core-collapse. While the mechanism by which t…
Unveiling the Diversity of Type IIn Supernovae via Systematic Light Curve Modeling
C. L. Ransome, V. A. Villar
Type IIn supernovae (SNeIIn) are a highly heterogeneous subclass of core-collapse supernovae, spectroscopically characterized by signatures of interaction with a dense circumstella…
