The broad-lined Type-Ic supernova SN 2022xxf with extraordinary two-humped light curves
H. Kuncarayakti, J. Sollerman, L. Izzo +60
We report on our study of supernova (SN) 2022xxf based on observations obtained during the first four months of its evolution. The light curves (LCs) display two humps of similar m…
Spectroscopic and Photometric Observations of Dwarf Nova Superoutbursts by the 3.8 m Telescope Seimei and the Variable Star Network
Yusuke Tampo, Keisuke Isogai, Naoto Kojiguchi +59
We present spectroscopic and photometric observations of 17 dwarf-nova superoutbursts obtained by KOOLS-IFU mounted on the 3.8 m telescope Seimei at Okayama Observatory of Kyoto Un…
Multi-wavelength photometry during the 2018 superoutburst of the WZ Sge-type dwarf nova EG Cancri
Mariko Kimura, Keisuke Isogai, Taichi Kato +45
We report on the multi-wavelength photometry of the 2018 superoutburst in EG Cnc. We have detected stage A superhumps and long-lasting late-stage superhumps via the optical photome…
Near-infrared Monitoring of the Accretion Outburst in the MYSO S255-NIRS3
Mizuho Uchiyama, Takuya Yamashita, Koichiro Sugiyama +10
We followed-up the massive young stellar object (MYSO) S255-NIRS3 (=S255-IRS1b) during its recent accretion outburst event in the Ks band with Kanata/HONIR for four years after its…
RZ Leonis Minoris Bridging between ER Ursae Majoris-Type Dwarf Nova and Novalike System
Taichi Kato, Ryoko Ishioka, Keisuke Isogai +64
We observed RZ LMi, which is renowned for the extremely (~19d) short supercycle and is a member of a small, unusual class of cataclysmic variables called ER UMa-type dwarf novae, i…
Superoutburst of CR Bootis: Estimation of Mass Ratio of a typical AM CVn star by Stage A Superhumps
Keisuke Isogai, Taichi Kato, Tomohito Ohshima +31
We report on two superoutbursts of the AM CVn-type object CR Boo in 2014 April--March and 2015 May--June. A precursor outburst acompanied both of these superoutbursts. During the r…
OISTER Optical and Near-Infrared Observations of the Super-Chandrasekhar Supernova Candidate SN 2012dn: Dust Emission from the Circumstellar Shell
Masayuki Yamanaka, Keiichi Maeda, Masaomi Tanaka +34
We present extensively dense observations of the super-Chandrasekhar supernova (SC SN) candidate SN 2012dn from to days after the date of its -band maximum in the o…
Type IIb Supernova 2013df Entering Into An Interaction Phase: A Link between the Progenitor and the Mass Loss
K. Maeda, T. Hattori, D. Milisavljevic +23
We report the late-time evolution of Type IIb Supernova (SN IIb) 2013df. SN 2013df showed a dramatic change in its spectral features at ~1 year after the explosion. Early on it sho…
Superoutburst of SDSS J090221.35+381941.9: First Measurement of Mass Ratio in an AM CVn-Type Object using Growing Superhumps
Taichi Kato, Tomohito Ohshima, Denis Denisenko +36
We report on a superoutburst of the AM CVn-type object SDSS J090221.35+381941.9 [J0902; orbital period 0.03355(6) d] in 2014 March-April. The entire outburst consisted of a precurs…
Optical and Near-Infrared Polarimetry of Highly Reddened Type Ia Supernova 2014J: Peculiar Properties of Dust in M82
K. S. Kawabata, H. Akitaya, M. Yamanaka +46
We presented optical and near-infrared multi-band linear polarimetry of the highly reddened Type Ia SN~2014J appeared in M82. SN~2014J exhibits large polarization at shorter wavele…
Study of Negative and Positive Superhumps in ER Ursae Majoris
Tomohito Ohshima, Taichi Kato, Elena Pavlenko +45
We carried out the photometric observations of the SU UMa-type dwarf nova ER UMa during 2011 and 2012, which showed the existence of persistent negative superhumps even during the…
Early-phase photometry and spectroscopy of transitional Type Ia SN 2012ht: Direct constraint on the rise time
Masayuki Yamanaka, Keiichi Maeda, Miho Kawabata +15
We report photometric and spectroscopic observations of the nearby Type Ia Supernova (SN Ia) 2012ht from days to days after -band maximum. The decline rate of th…
