Extreme Stellar Death and Galaxy Feedback at z = 2: A Rest-frame Ultraviolet Characterization of the Strongly Lensed Superluminous Supernova 2025wny

Willem B. Hoogendam, David O. Jones, Christopher J. Storfer +26

We present photometric and spectroscopic follow-up observations of the strongly-lensed H-poor superluminous supernova (SLSN) 2025wny at . We use integral-field Keck-II/…

DETECT: Real-Time Identification of Transients with DESI Spectroscopic Redshift

Yu-Hsing Lee, Ting-Wan Chen, Ze-Ning Wang +10

Wide-field surveys now report thousands of transients per month, while spectra are obtained for only a few per cent of them. We present DETECT (DESI--Transient Event Cross-matching…

Aarmed with Data: Bumps, Outflows, and Disk-like Emission in TDE 2025aarm

Aysha Aamer, Kate D. Alexander, Charlotte R. Angus +43

The origin of the optical emission in tidal disruption events (TDEs) remains one of the major outstanding questions in the field, in part due to the limited number of nearby events…

AT2021yky: A Fast-Rising Optical Transient with Evolving Broad Hydrogen Emission Consistent with an Ambiguous Nuclear Transient

Paarmita Pandey, Jason T. Hinkle, Christopher Kochanek +14

Nuclear transients are powerful probes of supermassive black hole properties, offering insight into black hole mass, accretion physics, and the structure of galactic nuclei. Among…

Decadal pre-explosion activity and circumstellar interaction in a supernova

Ting-Wan Chen, Amar Aryan, Sheng Yang +52

When a massive star explodes as a supernova, crucial information about its immediate environment is lost within hours. Here we report rapid optical observations from Lulin Observat…

An analysis of the Type Ia SN 2024gy and a comparison of different host extinction estimation techniques

Jacco H. Terwel, Kate Maguire, Cillian O'Donnell +38

Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are well-known standardisable candles, and are one of the main ways to measure the distance to their host galaxies. However, extinction due to interstel…
