Accurate photometric calibration by fitting the system transmission
S. Garrappa, E. O. Ofek, S. Ben-Ami +10
Transforming the instrumental photometry of ground-based telescopes into a calibrated physical flux in a well-defined passband is a major challenge in astronomy. Along with the int…
SN 2023tsz: A helium-interaction driven supernova in a very low-mass galaxy
B. Warwick, J. Lyman, M. Pursiainen +49
SN 2023tsz is a Type Ibn supernova (SNe Ibn) discovered in an extremely low-mass host. SNe Ibn are an uncommon subtype of stripped-envelope core-collapse SNe. They are characterise…
Eruptive mass loss less than a year before the explosion of superluminous supernovae: I. The cases of SN 2020xga and SN 2022xgc
A. Gkini, C. Fransson, R. Lunnan +47
We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of SN 2020xga and SN 2022xgc, two hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe-I) at and , respectiv…
Shock breakouts from compact CSM surrounding core-collapse SN progenitors may contribute significantly to the observed TeV neutrino background
E. Waxman, T. Wasserman, E. Ofek +1
Growing observational evidence suggests that enhanced mass loss from the progenitors of core-collapse supernovae (SNe) is common during yr preceding the explosion, creating…
Massive stars exploding in a He-rich circumstellar medium X. Flash spectral features in the Type Ibn SN 2019cj and observations of SN 2018jmt
Z. -Y. Wang, A. Pastorello, K. Maeda +48
We present optical and near-infrared observations of two Type Ibn supernovae (SNe), SN 2018jmt and SN 2019cj. Their light curves have rise times of about 10 days, reaching an absol…
The BlackGEM telescope array I: Overview
Paul J. Groot, S. Bloemen, P. Vreeswijk +75
The main science aim of the BlackGEM array is to detect optical counterparts to gravitational wave mergers. Additionally, the array will perform a set of synoptic surveys to detect…
