Simulated 3D Ni Distributions of Type IIp Supernovae

David Vartanyan, Adam Burrows, Lizzy Teryoshin +4

We present the first three-dimensional study of the asymptotic ejecta distributions for a suite of theoretical Type IIp supernovae originating from red supergiant progenitors. We s…

The Most Luminous Known Fast Blue Optical Transient AT 2024wpp: Unprecedented Evolution and Properties in the X-rays and Radio

A. J. Nayana, Raffaella Margutti, Eli Wiston +34

We present X-ray (0.3--79 keV) and radio (0.25--203 GHz) observations of the most luminous Fast Blue Optical Transient (LFBOT) AT\,2024wpp at , spanning 2--280 days after…

The Most Luminous Known Fast Blue Optical Transient AT 2024wpp: Unprecedented Evolution and Properties in the Ultraviolet to the Near-Infrared

Natalie LeBaron, Raffaella Margutti, Ryan Chornock +45

We present an extensive photometric and spectroscopic ultraviolet-optical-infrared campaign on the luminous fast blue optical transient (LFBOT) AT 2024wpp over the first ~100 d. AT…

Non-Thermal Ionization of Kilonova Ejecta: Observable Impacts

Daniel Brethauer, Daniel Kasen, Raffaella Margutti +1

The characteristic rapid rise and decline at optical wavelengths of a kilonova is the product of the low ejecta mass () and high ejecta velocity ($\gtrsim 0.…

2D End-to-End Modeling of Kilonovae from Binary Neutron Star Merger Remnants

Lieke Sippens Groenewegen, Sanjana Curtis, Philipp Mösta +2

We investigate the kilonova emission resulting from outflows produced in a three-dimensional (3D) general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulation of a hypermassive neut…

SEDONA-GesaRaT: an AI-Accelerated Radiative Transfer Program for 3-D Supernova Simulations

Xingzhuo Chen, Ulisses Braga-Neto, Lifan Wang +5

We present SEDONA-GesaRaT, a rapid code for supernova radiative transfer simulation developed based on the Monte-Carlo radiative transfer code SEDONA. We use a set of atomic physic…
