AT 2024qfm: a luminous fast blue optical transient at a redshift of z = 0.2267 identified by Lasair-ZTF
M. Fulton, S. J. Smartt, S. Srivastav +20
Luminous fast blue optical transients (LFBOTs) emit from x-ray to radio wavelengths, epitomised by the discovery of AT 2018cow in a host galaxy at 65 Mpc. In the following eight ye…
The type Ia supernova 2023vjh: a peculiar 1991bg-like SN with unusually faint light curves
M. Kopsacheili, L. Galbany, G. Folatelli +32
We present observations of the 1991bg-like type Ia supernova (SN) 2023vjh, associated with the elliptical galaxy MCG+04-10-013. Its light-curve shape parameters ($Δm_{15}(B)=1.89 \…
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…
Pan-STARRS follow-up of the gravitational-wave event S250818k and the lightcurve of SN 2025ulz
J. H. Gillanders, M. E. Huber, M. Nicholl +30
Kilonovae are the scientifically rich, but observationally elusive, optical transient phenomena associated with compact binary mergers. Only a handful of events have been discovere…
Results from the Pan-STARRS Search for Kilonovae: Contamination by Massive Stellar Outbursts
M. D. Fulton, S. J. Smartt, M. E. Huber +11
We present results from the Pan-STARRS optical search for kilonovae without the aid of gravitational wave and gamma-ray burst triggers. The search was conducted from 26 October 201…
SN 2024abfo: a partially stripped SN II from a yellow supergiant
A. Reguitti, A. Pastorello, S. J. Smartt +35
We present photometric and spectroscopic data of the type IIb supernova (SN) 2024abfo in NGC 1493 (at 11 Mpc). The ATLAS survey discovered the object just a few hours after the exp…
