SN 2020pvb: a Type IIn-P supernova with a precursor outburst
Nancy Elias-Rosa, Seán J. Brennan, Stefano Benetti +37
We present photometric and spectroscopic data sets for SN 2020pvb, a Type IIn-P supernova (SN) similar to SNe 1994W, 2005cl, 2009kn and 2011ht, with a precursor outburst detected (…
Direct detection of supernova progenitor stars with ZTF and LSST
Nora L. Strotjohann, Eran O. Ofek, Avishay Gal-Yam +9
The direct detection of core-collapse supernova (SN) progenitor stars is a powerful way of probing the last stages of stellar evolution. However, detections in archival Hubble Spac…
A WC/WO star exploding within an expanding carbon-oxygen-neon nebula
A. Gal-Yam, R. Bruch, S. Schulze +46
The final explosive fate of massive stars, and the nature of the compact remnants they leave behind (black holes and neutron stars), are major open questions in astrophysics. Many…
Signatures of Circumstellar Interaction in the Type IIL Supernova ASASSN-15oz
K. Azalee Bostroem, Stefano Valenti, Assaf Horesh +27
Hydrogen-rich, core-collapse supernovae are typically divided into four classes: IIP, IIL, IIn, and IIb. In general, interaction with circumstellar material is only considered for…
An Extensive Grid of Models Producing Extreme Horizontal Branch Stars
Ofer Yaron, Dina Prialnik, Attay Kovetz +1
Horizontal branch (HB) morphology is a complex multiple-parameter problem. Besides the metallicity, two other leading parameters are the mass loss rate (MLR) and the initial He abu…
A Hubble Space Telescope Survey for Novae in M87. II. Snuffing out the Maximum Magnitude - Rate of Decline Relation for Novae as a Non-Standard Candle, and a Prediction of the Existence of Ultrafast Novae
Michael M. Shara, Trisha Doyle, Tod R. Lauer +9
The extensive grid of numerical simulations of nova eruptions of Yaron et al.(2005) first predicted that some classical novae might deviate significantly from the Maximum Magnitude…
