The enigmatic double-peaked stripped-envelope SN 2023aew
We present optical and near-infrared photometry and spectroscopy of SN 2023aew and our findings on its remarkable properties. This event, initially resembling a Type IIb supernova (SN), rebrightened dramatically $\sim$80 d after discovery, at which time its spectrum transformed into that of a SN Ic. The slowly-evolving spectrum specifically resembled …
