WFST Supernovae in the First Year: III. Systematical Study of the Photometric Behavior of Early-phase Core-collapse Supernovae

Junhan Zhao, Ji-an Jiang, Zelin Xu +22

We investigate the multiband photometric properties of seven supernovae (SNe) showing double-peaked light-curve evolution and prominent shock-cooling emission, observed by the Wide…

A Common Origin of Normal Type Ia Supernovae Suggested by the Photometric Diversity

Weiyu Wu, Ji-an Jiang, Dezheng Meng +16

In recent years, with an increasing number of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) discovered soon after their explosions, a non-negligible fraction of SNe Ia with early-excess emissions (E…

Blazar variability with the Vera C. Rubin Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST)

Claudia M. Raiteri, Maria I. Carnerero, Barbara Balmaverde +8

With their emission mainly coming from a relativistic jet pointing towards us, blazars are fundamental sources to study extragalactic jets and their central engines, consisting of…

A hybrid type Ia supernova with an early flash triggered by helium-shell detonation

Ji-an Jiang, Mamoru Doi, Keiichi Maeda +22

Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) arise from the thermonuclear explosion of carbon-oxygen white dwarfs. Though the uniformity of their light curves makes them powerful cosmological dista…
