The dynamical sky – GO FASTER!

  • Fast transients (e.g. orphan GRBs, Cenko+15)
  • Probe very final stages of stars lives!

– Companion star in Type Ia supernovae? (e.g. Kasen 2010) – Shock break-out in core-collapse SNe (e.g. Rubin+2015) – “Flash”-ionization of circumstellar material (e.g. Gal-Yam+2014)

iPTF13dqy (Yaron+17) First detection ~3 hours after explosion! First spectrum 3 hours after detection…

Rapid (“Flash”) spectroscopy

(Johansson in prep.) Sample of ~20 PTF SNe (+ few objects from literature) with flash- spectroscopy PTF has total of ~700 Type II supernovae. Still, not rare! ~14% of SNe II should show flash-features (Khazov+15)

  • Peculiar, subluminous ”SN Iax”
  • Nearby (M61 @ 12 Mpc)
  • Bright in the mid-IR!
  • Late time IR-rise

;c9bf5d Mid-IR excess from warm dust?

  • Mdust ≈ 10-5 M¤ at Tdust ≈ 700 K
  • Pre-existing or newly formed?

(Fox, Johansson et al., 2016)

  • No progenitor in archival HST-images
  • No signs of reddening/Na ID absorption…

  • f a WD that doesn’t completely

unbind the star. (Kromer+13,15)

  • 1. Circumstellar dust?

(no reddening / Na ID absorption…)

  • 2. ”IR-catastrophe”?

(Fransson&Jerkstrand 2015)

  • 3. Bound remnant?

Optically thick wind blown from partially disrupted progenitor WD?

  • Pushing the time frontier allow us to find SNe

as they happen (ZTF now on sky!)

  • UV follow-up and flash-spectroscopy probes

mass loss during the final year of stars lives (more robotic spectrographs coming up…)

  • SPIRITS survey finding lots of previously

missed transients!

  • IR probes mass loss histories thousands of

years prior to SN explosions
