A Superluminous Supernova Lightened by Collisions with Pulsational Pair-instability Shells
Weili Lin, Xiaofeng Wang, Lin Yan +23
Superluminous supernovae are among the most energetic stellar explosions in the Universe, but their energy sources remain an open question. Here we present long-term observations o…
JWST Discovery of Dust Reservoirs in Nearby Type IIP Supernovae 2004et and 2017eaw
Melissa Shahbandeh, Arkaprabha Sarangi, Tea Temim +36
Supernova (SN) explosions have been sought for decades as a possible source of dust in the Universe, providing the seeds of galaxies, stars, and planetary systems. SN 1987A offers…
Prospects of Searching for Type Ia Supernovae with 2.5-m Wide Field Survey Telescope
Maokai Hu, Lei Hu, Ji-an Jiang +4
Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) are the thermonuclear explosion of a carbon-oxygen white dwarf (WD) and are well-known as a distance indicator. However, it is still unclear how WDs inc…
A Mid-infrared Study of Superluminous Supernovae
Luming Sun, Lin Xiao, Ge Li
We present the mid-infrared (MIR) light curves (LC) of 10 superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) at based on WISE data at 3.4 and 4.6 m. Three of them, including PS15br, SN 2…
Infrared Echoes of Optical Tidal Disruption Events: ~1% Dust Covering Factor or Less at sub-parsec Scale
Ning Jiang, Tinggui Wang, Xueyang Hu +3
The past decade has experienced an explosive increase of optically-discovered tidal disruption events (TDEs) with the advent of modern time-domain surveys. However, we still lack a…
The distance, supernova rate and supernova progenitors of NGC 6946
J. J. Eldridge, Lin Xiao
The distance to the fireworks galaxy NGC 6946 is highly uncertain. Recent distance estimates using the tip of the red giant branch of 7.7 to 7.8 Mpc are larger than the distance co…
Emission-line diagnostics of nearby HII regions including interacting binary populations
Lin Xiao, Elizabeth Stanway, J. J. Eldridge
We present numerical models of the nebular emission from H II regions around young stellar populations over a range of compositions and ages. The synthetic stellar pop- ulations in…
Spatially resolved MaNGA observations of the host galaxy of superluminous supernova 2017egm
Ting-Wan Chen, Patricia Schady, Lin Xiao +6
Superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) are found predominantly in dwarf galaxies, indicating that their progenitors have a low metallicity. However, the most nearby SLSN to date, SN 2017…
Emission-line Diagnostics of Nearby HII Regions Including Supernova Hosts
Lin Xiao, J. J. Eldridge, Elizabeth Stanway +1
We present a new model of the optical nebular emission from HII regions by combin- ing the results of the Binary Population and Spectral Synthesis (bpass) code with the photoion- i…
Core-Collapse Supernova Rate Synthesis Within 11 Mpc
Lin Xiao, J. J. Eldridge
The 11 Mpc H-alpha and Ultraviolet Galaxy (11HUGS) Survey traces the star formation activity of nearby galaxies. In addition within this volume the detection completeness of core-c…
