The Type II-P Supernova 2019mhm and Constraints on Its Progenitor System
J. Vazquez, C. D. Kilpatrick, G. Dimitriadis +4
We present pre- and post-explosion observations of the Type II-P supernova (SN~II-P) 2019mhm located in NGC~6753. Based on optical spectroscopy and photometry, we show that SN\,201…
Prospects for Detecting Fast Radio Bursts in Globular Clusters of Nearby Galaxies
Kyle Kremer, Dongzi Li, Wenbin Lu +2
The recent detection of a repeating fast radio burst (FRB) in an old globular cluster in M81 challenges traditional FRB formation mechanisms based on magnetic activity in young neu…
The origin and evolution of the normal Type Ia SN 2018aoz with infant-phase reddening and excess emission
Yuan Qi Ni, Dae-Sik Moon, Maria R. Drout +40
SN~2018aoz is a Type Ia SN with a -band plateau and excess emission in the infant-phase light curves 1 day after first light, evidencing an over-density of surface ir…
Tidal Heating of Exomoons in Resonance and Implications for Detection
Armen Tokadjian, Anthony L. Piro
The habitability of exoplanets can be strongly influenced by the presence of an exomoon, and in some cases the exomoon itself could be a possible place for life to develop. For moo…
A Speed Bump: SN 2021aefx Shows that Doppler Shift Alone can Explain Early-Excess Blue Flux in Some Type Ia Supernovae
C. Ashall, J. Lu, B. J. Shappee +17
We present early-time photometric and spectroscopic observations of the Type Ia Supernova (SN Ia) 2021aefx. The early time u-band light curve shows an excess flux when compared to…
Hydrodynamics of Collisions and Close Encounters between Stellar Black Holes and Main-sequence Stars
Kyle Kremer, James C. Lombardi, Wenbin Lu +2
Recent analyses have shown that close encounters between stars and stellar black holes occur frequently in dense star clusters. Depending upon the distance at closest approach, the…
