A fast rising tidal disruption event from a candidate intermediate mass black hole
C. R. Angus, V. F. Baldassare, B. Mockler +36
Massive black holes (BHs) at the centres of massive galaxies are ubiquitous. The population of BHs within dwarf galaxies, on the other hand, is evasive. Dwarf galaxies are thought…
SN 2020acat: A purr-fect example of a fast rising Type IIb Supernova
K. Medler, P. A. Mazzali, J. Teffs +31
The Ultra-Violet (UV) and Near Infrared (NIR) photometric and optical spectroscopic observations of SN 2020acat covering days after explosion are presented here. U…
Intermediate-luminosity red transients: Spectrophotometric properties and connection to electron-capture supernova explosions
Y. -Z. Cai, A. Pastorello, M. Fraser +56
We present the spectroscopic and photometric study of five intermediate-luminosity red transients (ILRTs), namely AT 2010dn, AT 2012jc, AT 2013la, AT 2013lb, and AT 2018aes. They s…
The optical properties of three type II supernovae: 2014cx, 2014cy and 2015cz
R. Dastidar, K. Misra, M. Singh +19
We present the photometric and spectroscopic analysis of three Type II SNe: 2014cx, 2014cy and 2015cz. SN 2014cx is a conventional Type IIP with a shallow slope (0.2 mag/50d) and a…
The fast evolving type Ib Supernova SN 2015dj in NGC 7371
Mridweeka Singh, Kuntal Misra, Stefano Valenti +17
We present the detailed optical evolution of a type Ib SN 2015dj in NGC 7371, using data spanning up to 170 days after discovery. SN 2015dj shares similarity in light curve…
SN 2017gci: a nearby Type I Superluminous Supernova with a bumpy tail
Achille Fiore, Ting-Wan Chen, Anders Jerkstrand +26
We present and discuss the optical spectro-photometric observations of the nearby (z=0.087) Type I superluminous supernova (SLSN I) SN 2017gci, whose peak K-corrected absolute magn…
