SN 2024iss: A Multi-Wavelength Exposé of a Type IIb Supernova with an Early-Time Ultraviolet Spectrum and Shock Breakout Constraints
Rujula Yete, Wynn Jacobson-Galan, Ferdinand Ferdinand +49
We present multi-wavelength observations and a comprehensive analysis of the nearby (D14 Mpc) Type IIb supernova (SN IIb) 2024iss. Observations of SN2024iss include an early…
AT 2024ahzi: A Type IIP Supernova Discovered by the LSST Commissioning Camera
Kaylee de Soto, V. Ashley Villar, Jared A. Goldberg +25
As part of its commissioning, the Vera C. Rubin Observatory observed several fields repeatedly for a month with ComCam, an instrument that uses the same hardware as the LSST camera…
Characterising the Standardisation Properties of Type Ia Supernovae in the z band with Hierarchical Bayesian Modelling
Erin E. Hayes, Suhail Dhawan, Kaisey S. Mandel +21
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are standardisable candles: their peak magnitudes can be corrected for correlations between light curve properties and their luminosities to precisely e…
Spectral Diversity in Type Ibn Supernovae and the Large Host Offset of SN2024acyl
Yize Dong, V. Ashley Villar, Anya Nugent +35
In this paper, we first present observations of SN~2024acyl, a normal Type Ibn supernova with a large projected offset (35~kpc) from its host galaxy. The low star-formation r…
The compact object and innermost ejecta of SN 1987A
J. Larsson, C. Fransson, P. J. Kavanagh +12
The first JWST observations of SN 1987A provided clear evidence that a compact object is ionizing the innermost ejecta. Here we analyze a second epoch of JWST NIRSpec and MIRI/MRS…
AT 2020nov: Evidence for Disk Reprocessing in a Rare Tidal Disruption Event
Nicholas Earl, K. Decker French, Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz +23
We present a detailed analysis of AT 2020nov, a tidal disruption event (TDE) in the center of its host galaxy, located at a redshift of . AT 2020nov exhibits unique feat…
