Panchromatic JWST Observations and Models of the Dim Type Iax Supernova 2024vjm at 200 days
E Baron, J. M. DerKacy, C. Ashall +23
We report JWST spectra and photometry of the underluminous SN Iax 2024vjm obtained 202.8 restframe days post-explosion. The spectrum exhibits a rich set of forbidden lines from low…
Measuring the Arrow of Time: Identification, Estimation, and Inference for Directional Structure in Multivariate Time Series
Avishek Bhandari
Many questions across the sciences take the same form: several coupled series are observed together, and the analyst wants to know not merely that they move together but which one…
JWST Spectra Indicate a Large Mass of Postshock Dust Formed by SN 2010jl
Nathan Smith, Melissa Shahbandeh, Ori D. Fox +22
The paper reports JWST mid‑infrared spectra of the Type IIn supernova SN 2010jl 13 years after explosion, revealing a large (~0.2 M☉) mass of warm dust formed in the post‑shock reg…
Ultraviolet to Infrared Spectroscopy of the Type Ibn SN 2023tsz Suggests a Lower-mass Progenitor
Sergiy S. Vasylyev, Griffin Hosseinzadeh, Luc Dessart +42
Type Ibn supernovae are stripped-envelope explosions whose spectra indicate interaction with dense, helium-rich and hydrogen-poor circumstellar material (CSM), making them importan…
JWST Medium-Resolution Infrared Spectroscopy of SN 2022acko: Tracing Molecule Formation in the Nebular Phase
K. Medler, T. Mera, C. Ashall +28
The Type II supernova (SN II) SN 2022acko was the first to be spectroscopically observed by the James Webb Space Telescope (). Here, we analyze SN 2022acko's second…
JWST observations of SN 2024abup: First Detection of CO in a broad-lined Type Ic Supernova and Constraints on r-process Nucleosynthesis
Manisha Shrestha, Lindsey A. Kwok, David J. Sand +42
SN 2024abup is a nearby broad-lined Type Ic supernova (SN Ic-bl) in NGC 0681 at a distance of 23.3 \pm 1.6 Mpc. As energetic explosions of massive stars, SNe Ic-bl are considered a…
