Minutes-duration Optical Flares with Supernova Luminosities
Anna Y. Q. Ho, Daniel A. Perley, Ping Chen +74
In recent years, certain luminous extragalactic optical transients have been observed to last only a few days. Their short observed duration implies a different powering mechanism…
The On-axis Jetted Tidal Disruption Event AT2022cmc: X-ray Observations and Broadband Spectral Modeling
Yuhan Yao, Wenbin Lu, Fiona Harrison +5
AT2022cmc was recently reported as the first on-axis jetted tidal disruption event (TDE) discovered in the last decade, and the fourth on-axis jetted TDE candidate known so far. In…
Gamma-ray Transient Network Science Analysis Group Report
Eric Burns, Michael Coughlin, Kendall Ackley +34
The Interplanetary Network (IPN) is a detection, localization and alert system that utilizes the arrival time of transient signals in gamma-ray detectors on spacecraft separated by…
Millimeter Observations of the Type II SN2023ixf: Constraints on the Proximate Circumstellar Medium
Edo Berger, Garrett K. Keating, Raffaella Margutti +10
We present 1.3 mm (230 GHz) observations of the recent and nearby Type II supernova, SN2023ixf, obtained with the Submillimeter Array (SMA) at 2.6-18.6 days after explosion. The ob…
Probing pre-supernova mass loss in double-peaked Type Ibc supernovae from the Zwicky Transient Facility
Kaustav K. Das, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Jesper Sollerman +34
Eruptive mass loss of massive stars prior to supernova (SN) explosion is key to understanding their evolution and end fate. An observational signature of pre-SN mass loss is the de…
Long-rising Type II Supernovae in the Zwicky Transient Facility Census of the Local Universe
Tawny Sit, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Anastasios Tzanidakis +25
SN 1987A was an unusual hydrogen-rich core-collapse supernova originating from a blue supergiant star. Similar blue supergiant explosions remain a small family of events, and are b…
