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…

The Progenitor Star of SN 2023ixf: A Massive Red Supergiant with Enhanced, Episodic Pre-Supernova Mass Loss

Yu-Jing Qin, Keming Zhang, Joshua Bloom +10

We identify the progenitor star of SN 2023ixf in the nearby galaxy Messier 101 using Keck/NIRC2 adaptive optics imaging and pre-explosion HST/ACS images. The supernova position, lo…

The double-peaked radio light curve of PTF11qcj

N. T. Palliyaguru, A. Corsi, D. A. Frail +6

We present continued radio follow-up observations of PTF11qcj, a highly energetic broad-lined Type Ic supernova (SN), with a radio peak luminosity comparable to that of the -ray…

An Intermediate Type Ia Supernova Between Normal And Super-Chandrasekhar

Yi Cao, J. Johansson, Peter E. Nugent +14

In this paper, we report observations of a peculiar Type Ia supernova iPTF13asv (a.k.a., SN2013cv) from the onset of the explosion to months after its peak. The early-phase spectra…

Discovery, Progenitor & Early Evolution of a Stripped Envelope Supernova iPTF13bvn

Yi Cao, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Iair Arcavi +24

The intermediate Palomar Transient Factory reports our discovery of a young supernova, iPTF13bvn, in the nearby galaxy, NGC5806 (22.5Mpc). Our spectral sequence in the optical and…

The UV/optical spectra of the Type Ia supernova SN 2010jn: a bright supernova with outer layers rich in iron-group elements

S. Hachinger, P. A. Mazzali, M. Sullivan +19

Radiative transfer studies of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) hold the promise of constraining both the time-dependent density profile of the SN ejecta and its stratification by elemen…
