Supernova 2020wnt: An Atypical Superluminous Supernova with a Hidden Central Engine
Samaporn Tinyanont, Stan E. Woosley, Kirsty Taggart +34
We present observations of a peculiar hydrogen- and helium-poor stripped-envelope (SE) supernova (SN) 2020wnt, primarily in the optical and near-infrared (near-IR). Its peak absolu…
Volumetric rates of Luminous Red Novae and Intermediate Luminosity Red Transients with the Zwicky Transient Facility
Viraj R. Karambelkar, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Nadejda Blagorodnova +27
Luminous red novae (LRNe) are transients characterized by low luminosities and expansion velocities, and are associated with mergers or common envelope ejections in stellar binarie…
Revealing the progenitor of SN 2021zby through analysis of the shock-cooling light curve
Qinan Wang, Patrick Armstrong, Yossef Zenati +34
We present early observations and analysis of the double-peaked Type IIb supernova (SN IIb) 2021zby. captured the prominent early shock cooling peak of SN 2021zby within the…
Near-Infrared and Optical Observations of Type Ic SN 2021krf: Luminous Late-time Emission and Dust Formation
Aravind P. Ravi, Jeonghee Rho, Sangwook Park +29
We present near-infrared (NIR) and optical observations of the Type Ic supernova (SN Ic) SN 2021krf obtained between days 13 and 259 at several ground-based telescopes. The NIR spe…
Relative intrinsic scatter in hierarchical Type Ia supernova siblings analyses: Application to SNe 2021hpr, 1997bq & 2008fv in NGC 3147
Sam M. Ward, Stephen Thorp, Kaisey S. Mandel +22
We present Young Supernova Experiment photometry of SN 2021hpr, the third Type Ia supernova sibling to explode in the Cepheid calibrator galaxy, NGC 3147. Siblings are usef…
MUSSES2020J: The Earliest Discovery of a Fast Blue Ultraluminous Transient at Redshift 1.063
Ji-an Jiang, Naoki Yasuda, Keiichi Maeda +22
In this Letter, we report the discovery of an ultraluminous fast-evolving transient in rest-frame UV wavelengths, MUSSES2020J, soon after its occurrence by using the Hyper Suprime-…
