SN 2024afav: A Superluminous Supernova with Multiple Light Curve Bumps and Spectroscopic Signatures of Circumstellar Interaction

Harsh Kumar, Peter K. Blanchard, Edo Berger +8

We present a comprehensive optical and near-infrared spectroscopic study of SN 2024afav - a hydrogen-poor superluminous supernova (SLSN-I) that peaks at -20.7 mag and exh…

An ultraviolet excess in the superluminous supernova Gaia16apd reveals a powerful central engine

M. Nicholl, E. Berger, R. Margutti +5

Since the discovery of superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) in the last decade, it has been known that these events exhibit bluer spectral energy distributions than other supernova sub…
