Superluminous supernovae are a new class of supernovae that were recognized about a
decade ago. Both observational and theoretical progress has been significant in the last …

JCW had long wanted to write a new monograph on supernovae. Despite an immense
explosion in the literature and many review articles, there had not been one since that of …

We present observations of PS16dtm (also known as SN 2016ezh), a luminous transient that
occurred at the nucleus of a narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy hosting a 10 6 M⊙ black hole. The …

There is a growing number of Type IIn supernovae (SNe) which present an outburst prior to
their presumably final explosion. These precursors may affect the SN display, and are likely …

The origin of dust in galaxies is still a mystery,,,. The majority of the refractory elements are
produced in supernova explosions, but it is unclear how and where dust grains condense …

We present the Pan-STARRS1 discovery of the long-lived and blue transient PS1-11af,
which was also detected by Galaxy Evolution Explorer with coordinated observations in the …

ABSTRACT Hubble Space Telescope and ground-based observations of the Type IIn
supernova (SN) 2010jl are analyzed, including photometry and spectroscopy in the …

Blue supergiant stars develop into core-collapse supernovae—one of the most energetic
outbursts in the Universe—when all nuclear burning fuel is exhausted in the stellar core …

ASASSN-14ae is a candidate tidal disruption event (TDE) found at the centre of SDSS
J110840. 11+ 340552.2 (d≃ 200 Mpc) by the All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae …

Because mass loss is a fundamental phenomenon in massive stars, an interaction with
circumstellar material (CSM) should be universal in core-collapse supernovae (SNe) …
