Progenitor and Close-In Circumstellar Medium of Type II Supernova 2020fqv from High-Cadence Photometry and Ultra-Rapid UV Spectroscopy

Samaporn Tinyanont, Ryan Ridden-Harper, Ryan Foley +35

We present observations of SN 2020fqv, a Virgo-cluster Type II core-collapse supernova (CCSN) with a high temporal resolution light curve from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satel…

Discovery of a 310-day Period from the Enshrouded Massive System NaSt1 (WR 122)

Ryan M. Lau, Samaporn Tinyanont, Matthew J. Hankins +15

We present optical and infrared (IR) light curves of NaSt1, also known as Wolf-Rayet (WR) 122, with observations from Palomar Gattini-IR (PGIR), the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF)…

Outbursting Young Stellar Object PGIR 20dci in the Perseus Arm

Lynne A. Hillenbrand, Kishalay De, Matthew Hankins +9

We report the discovery of a likely outbursting Class I young stellar object, associated with the star-forming region NGC 281-W (distance kpc). The source is currently s…

Infrared Spectropolarimetric Detection of Intrinsic Polarization from a Core-Collapse Supernova

Samaporn Tinyanont, Maxwell Millar-Blanchaer, Mansi Kasliwal +8

Massive stars die an explosive death as a core-collapse supernova (CCSN). The exact physical processes that cause the collapsing star to rebound into an explosion are not well-unde…

AT 2019qyl in NGC 300: Internal Collisions in the Early Outflow from a Very Fast Nova in a Symbiotic Binary

Jacob E. Jencson, Jennifer E. Andrews, Howard E. Bond +39

Nova eruptions, thermonuclear explosions on the surfaces of white dwarfs (WDs), are now recognized to be among the most common shock-powered astrophysical transients. We present th…

The luminous red nova AT 2018bwo in NGC 45 and its binary yellow supergiant progenitor

Nadejda Blagorodnova, Jakub Klencki, Ondrej Pejcha +12

Luminous Red Novae (LRNe) are astrophysical transients associated with the partial ejection of a binary system's common envelope (CE) shortly before its merger. Here we present the…
