The fast rise of the unusual Type IIL/IIb SN 2018ivc
A. Reguitti, R. Dastidar, G. Pignata +22
We present an analysis of the photometric and spectroscopic dataset of the Type II supernova (SN) 2018ivc in the nearby (10 Mpc) galaxy Messier 77. Thanks to the high cadence of th…
Massive stars exploding in a He-rich circumstellar medium X. Flash spectral features in the Type Ibn SN 2019cj and observations of SN 2018jmt
Z. -Y. Wang, A. Pastorello, K. Maeda +48
We present optical and near-infrared observations of two Type Ibn supernovae (SNe), SN 2018jmt and SN 2019cj. Their light curves have rise times of about 10 days, reaching an absol…
Multiwavelength observations of the extraordinary accretion event AT2021lwx
P. Wiseman, Y. Wang, S. Hönig +43
We present observations from X-ray to mid-infrared wavelengths of the most energetic non-quasar transient ever observed, AT2021lwx. Our data show a single optical brightening by a…
The nuclear transient AT 2017gge: a tidal disruption event in a dusty and gas-rich environment and the awakening of a dormant SMBH
F. Onori, G. Cannizzaro, P. G. Jonker +28
We present the results from a dense multi-wavelength (optical/UV, near-infrared (IR), and X-ray) follow-up campaign of the nuclear transient AT2017gge, covering a total of 1698 day…
The supernova of the MAGIC GRB190114C
A. Melandri, L. Izzo, E. Pian +42
We observed GRB190114C (redshift z = 0.4245), the first GRB ever detected at TeV energies, at optical and near-infrared wavelengths with several ground-based telescopes and the Hub…
Less than 1% of Core-Collapse Supernovae in the local universe occur in elliptical galaxies
I. Irani, S. J. Prentice, S. Schulze +39
We present observations of three Core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) in elliptical hosts, detected by the Zwicky Transient Facility Bright Transient Survey (BTS). SN 2019ape is a SN I…
SN 2018bsz: significant dust formation in a nearby superluminous supernova
T. -W. Chen, S. J. Brennan, R. Wesson +41
We investigate the thermal emission and the extinction from dust associated with the nearby (z = 0.0267) superluminous supernova (SLSN) 2018bsz. Our dataset combines daily-cadence,…
GRB171010A / SN2017htp: a GRB-SN at z=0.33
A. Melandri, D. B. Malesani, L. Izzo +41
The number of supernovae known to be connected with long-duration gamma-ray bursts is increasing and the link between these events is no longer exclusively found at low redshift ($…
Unveiling the enigma of ATLAS17aeu
A. Melandri, A. Rossi, S. Benetti +42
Aim. The unusual transient ATLAS17aeu was serendipitously detected within the sky localisation of the gravitational wave trigger GW170104. The importance of a possible association…
Large Binocular Telescope observations of PSR J2043+2740
V. Testa, R. P. Mignani, N. Rea +5
We present the results of deep optical imaging of the radio/-ray pulsar PSR J2043+2740, obtained with the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT). With a characteristic age of 1.2 Myr,…
