A real-time search for Type Ia Supernovae with late-time CSM interaction in ZTF

Jacco H. Terwel, Kate Maguire, Seán J. Brennan +20

The nature of Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) progenitor systems and the mechanisms that lead up to their explosions are still widely debated. In rare cases the SN ejecta interact with c…

Inferring CSM Properties of Type II SNe Using a Magnitude-Limited ZTF Sample

K-Ryan Hinds, Daniel Perley, Jesper Sollerman +20

Although all Type II supernovae (SNe) originate from massive stars possessing a hydrogen-rich envelope, their light curve morphology is diverse, reflecting poorly characterised het…

Multi-Wavelength Analysis of AT 2023sva: a Luminous Orphan Afterglow With Evidence for a Structured Jet

Gokul P. Srinivasaragavan, Daniel A. Perley, Anna Y. Q. Ho +50

We present multi-wavelength analysis of ZTF23abelseb (AT 2023sva), an optically discovered fast-fading ( mag in days), luminous ( mag) and…

The BTSbot-nearby discovery of SN 2024jlf: rapid, autonomous follow-up probes interaction in an 18.5 Mpc Type IIP supernova

Nabeel Rehemtulla, W. V. Jacobson-Galán, Avinash Singh +27

We present observations of the Type IIP supernova (SN) 2024jlf, including spectroscopy beginning just 0.7 days (17 hours) after first light. Rapid follow-up was enabled by th…

Prospects for Systematic Planetary Nebulae Detection with the Census of the Local Universe Narrowband Survey

Rong Du, David O. Cook, Soumyadeep Bhattacharjee +8

We investigate the efficacy of a systematic planetary nebula (PN) search in the Census of the Local Universe (CLU) narrowband (H) survey that covers a considerably larger sky re…

A cosmic formation site of silicon and sulphur revealed by a new type of supernova explosion

Steve Schulze, Avishay Gal-Yam, Luc Dessart +47

The cores of stars are the cosmic furnaces where light elements are fused into heavier nuclei. The fusion of hydrogen to helium initially powers all stars. The ashes of the fusion…
