Luminous Red Nova AT 2019zhd, a new merger in M 31
A. Pastorello, M. Fraser, G. Valerin +20
We present the follow-up campaign of the luminous red nova (LRN) AT~2019zhd, the third event of this class observed in M 31. The object was followed by several sky surveys for abou…
The luminous red nova variety: AT 2020hat and AT 2020kog
A. Pastorello, G. Valerin, M. Fraser +32
We present the results of our monitoring campaigns of the luminous red novae (LRNe) AT 2020hat in NGC 5068 and AT 2020kog in NGC 6106. The two objects were imaged (and detected) be…
Type Ic supernovae from the (intermediate) Palomar Transient Factory
C. Barbarino, J. Sollerman, F. Taddia +8
Type Ic supernovae represent the explosions of the most stripped massive stars, but their progenitors and explosion mechanisms remain unclear. Larger samples of observed supernovae…
A large fraction of hydrogen-rich supernova progenitors experience elevated mass loss shortly prior to explosion
Rachel J. Bruch, Avishay Gal-Yam, Steve Schulze +43
Spectroscopic detection of narrow emission lines traces the presence of circumstellar mass distributions around massive stars exploding as core-collapse supernovae. Transient emiss…
Carnegie Supernova Project II: The slowest rising Type Ia supernova LSQ14fmg and clues to the origin of super-Chandrasekhar/03fg-like events
E. Y. Hsiao, P. Hoeflich, C. Ashall +34
The Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) LSQ14fmg exhibits exaggerated properties which may help to reveal the origin of the "super-Chandrasekhar" (or 03fg-like) group. The optical spectrum i…
SN 2020bqj: a Type Ibn supernova with a long lasting peak plateau
E. C. Kool, E. Karamehmetoglu, J. Sollerman +31
Context: Type Ibn supernovae are a rare class of stripped envelope supernovae interacting with a helium-rich CSM. The majority of the SNe Ibn reported display a surprising homogene…
