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…

SN 2019muj -- a well-observed Type Iax supernova that bridges the luminosity gap of the class

Barnabás Barna, Tamás Szalai, Saurabh W. Jha +38

We present early-time ( days) observations of SN 2019muj (= ASASSN-19tr), one of the best-observed members of the peculiar SN Iax class. Ultraviolet and optical photometri…

The electron-capture origin of supernova 2018zd

Daichi Hiramatsu, D. Andrew Howell, Schuyler D. Van Dyk +27

In the transitional mass range ( 8-10 solar masses) between white dwarf formation and iron core-collapse supernovae, stars are expected to produce an electron-capture superno…

Supernova 2018cuf: A Type IIP supernova with a slow fall from plateau

Yize Dong, S. Valenti, K. A. Bostroem +34

We present multi-band photometry and spectroscopy of SN 2018cuf, a Type IIP ("P" for plateau) supernova (SN) discovered by the Distance Less Than 40 Mpc survey (DLT40) within 24 ho…

Luminous Type II Short-Plateau Supernovae 2006Y, 2006ai, and 2016egz: A Transitional Class from Stripped Massive Red Supergiants

Daichi Hiramatsu, D. Andrew Howell, Takashi J. Moriya +21

The diversity of Type II supernovae (SNe II) is thought to be driven mainly by differences in their progenitor's hydrogen-rich (H-rich) envelope mass, with SNe IIP having long plat…

Near-Infrared and Optical Observations of Type Ic SN2020oi and broad-lined Ic SN2020bvc: Carbon Monoxide, Dust and High-Velocity Supernova Ejecta

J. Rho, A. Evans, T. R. Geballe +33

We present near-infrared and optical observations of the Type Ic Supernova (SN) 2020oi in the galaxy M100 and the broad-lined Type Ic SN2020bvc in UGC 9379, using Gemini, LCO, SOAR…
