We report radio observations of SN2023ixf with NSFâs Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA). We observed SN2023ixf with the VLA on May 23rd 2023 beginning on-source at 00:24:09 UT (~4 days since discovery, Project Code SF151070, PI: Margutti) at X-band (8-12 GHz) with the array in B-configuration for a duration of approximately 40 minutes. We find no evidence for statistically significant radio emission at the location of SN2023ixf with a preliminary 5x RMS upper limit of 33 uJy.
Further observations are planned.
We thank the entire VLA team for carrying out these observations.
