Time domain science has undergone a revolution over the past decade, with tens of thousands new supernovae (SNe) discovered each year. However, several observational domains, including SNe within days or hours explosion and faint, red transients, are just beginning to be explored. Here, we present Young Supernova Experiment (YSE), novel optical time-domain survey on Pan-STARRS telescopes. Our is designed obtain well-sampled $griz$ light curves for transient events up $z \approx 0.2$. This...
Abstract We present panchromatic observations and modeling of the Calcium-rich supernova (SN) 2019ehk in star-forming galaxy M100 ( d ≈ 16.2 Mpc) starting 10 hr after explosion continuing for ∼300 days. SN shows a double-peaked optical light curve peaking at t = 3 15 The first peak is coincident with luminous, rapidly decaying Swift-XRT–discovered X-ray emission <?CDATA ${L}_{{\rm{x}}}\approx {10}^{41}\,\mathrm{erg}\,{{\rm{s}}}^{-1}$?> days; L x ∝ −3 ), Shane/Kast spectral detection narrow H...
We present extensive multi-frequency VLA and VLBA observations of the radio-bright supernova (SN) IIb SN 2004C that span $\sim(40-2793)$ days post-explosion. interpret temporal evolution radio spectral energy distribution (SED) in context synchrotron self-absorbed (SSA) emission from explosion's forward shock as it expands circumstellar medium (CSM) previously sculpted by mass-loss history stellar progenitor. modeling data point to a blastwave with average velocity $\sim0.06c$ carries an...
We present multi-band ATLAS photometry for SN 2019tsf, a stripped-envelope Type Ib supernova (SESN). The shows triple-peaked light curve and late (re-)brightening, making it unique among systems. re-brightening observations represent the latest photometric measurements of multi-peaked to date. As late-time spectroscopy suggest no hydrogen, potential circumstellar material (CSM) must be H-poor. Moreover, (>150 days) spectra show signs narrow emission lines, further disfavouring CSM...

Abstract Adding Au to Pd nanoparticles (NPs) can impart high catalytic activity with respect hydrogenation of a wide range substances. These materials are often synthesized by reducing metallic precursors; hence, sonochemical and solvothermal processes commonly used anchor these bimetals onto thin supports, including graphene. Although similar NPs have been studied reasonably well, clear understanding structural characteristics relative their synthesis parameters is lacking, due limitations...
ABSTRACT We present X-ray and radio observations of what may be the closest Type Iax supernova (SN) to date, SN 2014dt (d = 12.3–19.3 Mpc), provide tight constraints on emission. infer a specific luminosity $L_R\lt (1.0\!-\!2.4)\times 10^{25}\, \rm {erg\, s^{-1}\, Hz^{-1}}$ at frequency 7.5 GHz $L_X\lt 1.4\times 10^{38}\, s^{-1}}$ (0.3–10 keV) ∼38–48 d post-explosion. interpret these limits in context Inverse Compton (IC) emission synchrotron from population electrons accelerated forward...
