JWST Imaging of the Cartwheel Galaxy Reveals Dust Associated with SN 2021afdx

We present near- and mid-infrared (0.9–18 μ m) photometry of supernova (SN) 2021afdx, which was imaged serendipitously with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) as part of its Early Release Observations of the Cartwheel Galaxy. Our ground-based optical observations show it is likely to be a Type II...
