Observations of the luminous red nova AT 2021biy in the nearby galaxy NGC 4631

Y. -Z. Cai, A. Pastorello, M. Fraser +73

We present an observational study of the luminous red nova (LRN) AT\,2021biy in the nearby galaxy NGC\,4631. The field of the object was routinely imaged during the pre-eruptive st…

SN 2021csp -- the explosion of a stripped envelope star within a H and He-poor circumstellar medium

Morgan Fraser, Maximilian D. Stritzinger, Sean J. Brennan +48

We present observations of SN 2021csp, a unique supernova (SN) which displays evidence for interaction with H- and He- poor circumstellar material (CSM) at early times. Using high-…

Nebular Halpha emission in SN Ia 2016jae

N. Elias-Rosa, P. Chen, S. Benetti +7

There is a wide consensus that type Ia supernovae (SN Ia) originate from the thermonuclear explosion of CO white dwarfs (WD), with the lack of hydrogen in the observed spectra as a…

Photometric and spectroscopic evolution of the interacting transient AT 2016jbu (Gaia16cfr)

S. J. Brennan, M. Fraser, J. Johansson +68

We present the results from a high cadence, multi-wavelength observation campaign of AT 2016jbu (aka Gaia16cfr), an interacting transient. This dataset complements the current lite…

Observations of the low-luminosity Type Iax supernova 2019gsc: a fainter clone of SN 2008ha?

Lina Tomasella, Maximilian Stritzinger, Stefano Benetti +9

We present optical photometric and spectroscopic observations of the faint-and-fast evolving type Iax SN 2019gsc, extending from the time of g-band maximum until about fifty days p…

Closing gaps to our origins. The UV window into the Universe

Ana I. Gomez de Castro, Martin A. Barstow, Fréderic Baudin +23

The investigation of the emergence of life is a major endeavour of science. Astronomy is contributing to it in three fundamental manners: (1) by measuring the chemical enrichment o…
