Tomography analysis of the intermediate-luminosity Type Iax SN 2024pxl
We present an abundance tomography analysis of SN 2024pxl, an intermediate-luminosity Type Iax supernova (M_ =-16.82 ± 0.19 mag), with the most-detailed follow-up in the Type Iax subclass to date. As one of the few intermediate-luminosity Type Iax objects, SN 2024pxl may link the...

JWST Nebular Spectroscopy of SN 2023qov: Circumstellar Dust Emission in a Normal Type Ia Supernova
Abstract We present panchromatic observations of the Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2023qov, ranging from ∼2 weeks before to ∼1 yr after maximum light. JWST near- and mid-infrared spectra at +276 and +363 days show ∼400 K dust emission that cools by ∼75 K between epochs, the first una...

Mapping the nuclear environments of extreme coronal line emitting galaxies
Abstract Extreme coronal line emitters (ECLEs) are a rare class of galactic nuclei exhibiting unusually strong high-ionisation forbidden emission lines, and several ECLEs have been linked to tidal disruption events (TDEs). In this work, we compile and analyse optical spectra of 3...
