CHEOPS photometry from 2024 reveals a reversal in the transit-timing variations of AU Mic c

Z. Garai, Gy. M. Szabó, D. Gandolfi +90

We present new CHEOPS transit observations of AU Mic b and AU Mic c obtained between June and September 2024, extending the baseline of transit-timing measurements of this young pl…

SN 2022erq: A Superluminous Thermonuclear Supernova with Escalating Preexplosion Mass Loss

Qian Zhai, Jujia Zhang, Xiaofeng Wang +51

We present a photometric and spectroscopic study of the superluminous Type Ia supernova SN 2022erq. Its early spectra, dominated by iron-group elements with weak intermediate-mass…

Spin-Orbit Geometry of AU Mic b and c from Back-to-Back Transits Observed Contemporaneously with Magellan PFS, LCOGT, and CHEOPS

Zitao Lin, Gyula M. Szabó, Krzysztof Sz. Zieliński +37

Young planets offer a unique window into the early stages of planetary evolution. AU Mic is one of the nearest (9.8 pc) pre-main sequence stars (~20 Myr), hosting two transiting Ne…

Long-term optical and near-infrared photometric evolution of SN 2019vxm, an interacting Type IIn supernova

Klára Lelkes, László Molnár, József Vinkó +12

The diversity of Type IIn supernovae is largely driven by the properties of the circumstellar material (CSM) they explode into. We examine the temporal evolution of SN 2019vxm, an…

Distance estimate to NGC 6951 from supernova siblings Type IIP SN 2020dpw and Type Ib SN 2021sjt

Réka Könyves-Tóth, Zsófia Bodola, Tamás Szalai +24

{Supernova (SN) siblings are powerful tools used to calibrate and improve distance measurement methods, and to make the systematic uncertainty to distances to their host galaxies c…

Interferometric Images of the Starspot Evolution of Andromedae

Rachael M. Roettenbacher, John D. Monnier, Heidi Korhonen +21

The evolution of starspots of the giant primaries of RS CVn systems is typically detected indirectly with photometric and spectroscopic monitoring. These observations suggest slowl…
