Fast X-ray Transient EP260321a: Shock Breakout through an Extended Circumstellar Matter
Maokai Hu, Yi Yang, Lifan Wang +1
The Einstein Probe (EP) has discovered a fast X-ray transient, EP260321a, whose optical counterpart was subsequently classified as a broad-lined Type Ic supernova. Its observed ris…
Pinning Down the Geometry of the Type Ic Broad-Line Supernova 2026gzf
Xudong Wen, Yi Yang, Jing Lu +11
Type Ic broad-line supernovae (SNe Ic-BL) are often associated with energetic explosions that display a prompt outburst of high-energy emission. Since their progenitor lost the H a…
SN 2024abvb: A Type Icn Supernova in the Outskirts of its Host Galaxy
Maokai Hu, Shengyu Yan, Xiaofeng Wang +11
We present multiband photometric and spectroscopic observations of supernova (SN) 2024abvb, which exhibits early-time prominent photoionized narrow emission lines of C II superpose…
An axisymmetric shock breakout indicated by prompt polarized emission from the type II supernova 2024ggi
Yi Yang, Xudong Wen, Lifan Wang +18
The death of massive stars is triggered by an infall-induced bounce shock that disrupts the star. How such a shock is launched and propagates through the star is a decade-long puzz…
Spectropolarimetric Evolution of SN 2023ixf: an Asymmetric Explosion in a Confined Aspherical Circumstellar Medium
Sergiy S. Vasylyev, Luc Dessart, Yi Yang +15
We present complete spectropolarimetric coverage of the Type II supernova (SN) 2023ixf ranging from 1 to 120 days after explosion. Polarimetry was obtained with the Kast double spe…
Early-time millimeter observations of the nearby Type II SN 2024ggi
Maokai Hu, Yiping Ao, Yi Yang +4
The short-lived ionized emission lines in early spectroscopy of the nearby type II supernova SN 2024ggi signify the presence of dense circumstellar matter (CSM) close to its progen…
