The ePESSTO+ census of ZTF nuclear transients. I. What flares in galactic nuclei?

E. Concepción, T. Petrushevska, G. Leloudas +21

Transients in galactic nuclei arise from distinct processes, only some of which trace the supermassive black hole (SMBH). These include tidal disruption events (TDEs), changing-loo…

Probing a new subclass of llGRB-SN transients: Insights from EP250304a and its associated supernova

L. Cotter, A. Martin-Carrillo, R. A. J. Eyles-Ferris +62

With the advent of the Einstein Probe (EP) mission, we are entering a new era in the study of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), enabling the detection of faint, low-luminosity transients th…

The transitional Type Ibn/IIn SN 2022pda, with pre-explosion outbursts and a double-peaked light curve

Y. -Z. Cai, A. Pastorello, R. Chiba +65

We report the results of a photometric and spectroscopic follow-up campaign of the unusual interacting supernova (SN) 2022pda. Precursor variability lasting days is obse…

Early interaction signatures and an extended plateau phase in Type II SN 2020aze

B. Ailawadhi, R. Dastidar, K. Misra +27

We present a photometric and spectroscopic analysis of the fast-declining Type II SN 2020aze, observed in optical bands from 2.2 to 137.4 days after explosion. The V-band light cur…

The extremely low-luminosity Type Iax SNe 2022ywf and 2023zgx

Barnabás Barna, Dominik Bánhidi, Tamás Szalai +25

We present the optical follow-up of SNe 2022ywf and 2023zgx, two examples from the Iax subclass of thermonuclear supernova (SN) events. With peak absolute magnitudes of $M_\mathrm{…

The nearby He-rich superluminous supernova SN 2021bnw during photospheric phases

A. Fiore, A. Kozyreva, L. Yan +40

Aim. We present and interpret the data of the nearby hydrogen-deficient but helium-rich superluminous supernova SN 2021bnw which reached a magnitude of -20.7 at maximum luminosity…
