SN2023ixf in Messier 101: the twilight years of the progenitor as seen by Pan-STARRS

Conor L. Ransome, V. Ashley Villar, Anna Tartaglia +28

The nearby type II supernova, SN2023ixf in M101 exhibits signatures of early-time interaction with circumstellar material in the first week post-explosion. This material may be the…

AT 2019qyl in NGC 300: Internal Collisions in the Early Outflow from a Very Fast Nova in a Symbiotic Binary

Jacob E. Jencson, Jennifer E. Andrews, Howard E. Bond +39

Nova eruptions, thermonuclear explosions on the surfaces of white dwarfs (WDs), are now recognized to be among the most common shock-powered astrophysical transients. We present th…
