Caption: Figure 7.

JWST spectrum of SN 2024abup at +41 days after V-band maximum, overlaid with r-process element lines from G. Ricigliano et al. (2025; solid red) and light element lines (colored dashed). The spectral features are more consistent with light elements, though line broadening may produce blending that complicates this identification. Insets show zoomed views of each individual feature.
