Fast Blue Optical Transients due to Circumstellar Interaction and the Mysterious Supernova SN 2018gep

no code implementations11 Mar 2021 Shing-Chi Leung, Jim Fuller, Ken'ichi Nomoto

The fast rise in luminosity of this SN (spectroscopically classified as a broad-lined Type Ic SN), indicates that the ejecta interacts with a dense circumstellar medium (CSM), while an additional energy source such as $^{56}$Ni-decay is required to explain the late-time light curve.

Detailed Characterization of Heartbeat Stars and their Tidally Excited Oscillations

no code implementations3 Sep 2020 Shelley J. Cheng, Jim Fuller, Zhao Guo, Holger Lehman, Kelly Hambleton

Finally, we apply tidal theories to stellar structure models of each system to determine whether chance resonances can be responsible for the observed tidally excited oscillations, or whether a resonance locking process is at work.
