Dust Without Na I D Trace: The Case of Highly Attenuated Type Ib SN 2024vjc
Javier Silva-Farfán, Keiichi Maeda, Andrea Pastorello +19
Understanding dust attenuation toward extragalactic transients is critical for recovering their intrinsic properties and probing the local environments of distant galaxies. A popul…
Decadal pre-explosion activity and circumstellar interaction in a supernova
Ting-Wan Chen, Amar Aryan, Sheng Yang +52
When a massive star explodes as a supernova, crucial information about its immediate environment is lost within hours. Here we report rapid optical observations from Lulin Observat…
SN 2023taz: Implications for the UV Diversity of Superluminous Supernovae
Aysha Aamer, Matt Nicholl, Charlotte Angus +21
Superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) are some of the brightest explosions in the Universe representing the extremes of stellar deaths. At the upper end of their distribution is SN\,202…
Infrared observations reveal the reprocessing envelope in the tidal disruption event AT 2019azh
Thomas M. Reynolds, Lars Thomsen, Seppo Mattila +14
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) are expected to release much of their energy in the far-ultraviolet (UV), which we do not observe directly. However, infrared (IR) observations can o…
CSS161010: a luminous, fast blue optical transient with broad blueshifted hydrogen lines
Claudia P. Gutiérrez, Seppo Mattila, Peter Lundqvist +38
We present ultraviolet, optical and near-infrared photometric and optical spectroscopic observations of the luminous, fast blue optical transient (LFBOT), CSS161010:045834-081803 (…
Light-Curve Structure and Halpha Line Formation in the Tidal Disruption Event AT 2019azh
Sara Faris, Iair Arcavi, Lydia Makrygianni +33
AT 2019azh is a H+He tidal disruption event (TDE) with one of the most extensive ultraviolet and optical data sets available to date. We present our photometric and spectroscopic o…
