The evolutionary history of ultra-compact accreting binaries. I. Chemical abundances and formation channel of the eclipsing AM CVn system ZTF J225237.05-051917.4 from HST spectroscopy
W. Yu, A. F. Pala, T. Kupfer +33
AM Canum Venaticorum (AM CVn) stars are ultra-compact binary systems composed of a white dwarf (WD) primary accreting from a H-deficient donor. They are important as potential prog…
Outbursts in ultra-compact AM CVn binaries
Gavin Ramsay
AM CVn binaries are the most compact of accreting binaries having orbital periods in the range ~5-70 min. They consist of a white dwarf accreting hydrogen deficient material from a…
SN 2024cld: unveiling the complex mass-loss histories of evolved supergiant progenitors to core collapse supernovae
T. L. Killestein, M. Pursiainen, R. Kotak +52
Pre-explosion mass loss in supernova (SN) progenitors is a crucial unknown factor in stellar evolution, yet has been illuminated recently by the diverse zoo of interacting transien…
GRB 241105A: A test case for GRB classification and rapid r-process nucleosynthesis channels
Dimple, B. P. Gompertz, A. J. Levan +85
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) offer a powerful window to probe the progenitor systems responsible for the formation of heavy elements through the rapid neutron capture (r-) process, than…
SN 2024bfu, SN 2025qe, and the early light curves of type Iax supernovae
M. R. Magee, T. L. Killestein, M. Pursiainen +39
Type Iax supernovae (SNe Iax) are one of the most common subclasses of thermonuclear supernova and yet their sample size, particularly those observed shortly after explosion, remai…
The PLATO field selection process. II. Characterization of LOPS2, the first long-pointing field
V. Nascimbeni, G. Piotto, J. Cabrera +26
PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars (PLATO) is an ESA M-class mission to be launched by the end of 2026 to discover and characterize transiting planets around bright and n…
