Abundance stratification in type Ia supernovae -- VI: the peculiar slow decliner SN\,1999aa
Charles J. Aouad, Paolo A. Mazzali, Stephan Hachinger +6
The abundance distribution in the ejecta of the peculiar slowly declining Type Ia supernova (SN\,Ia) SN\,1999aa is obtained by modelling a time series of optical spectra. Similar t…
Less than 1% of Core-Collapse Supernovae in the local universe occur in elliptical galaxies
I. Irani, S. J. Prentice, S. Schulze +39
We present observations of three Core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) in elliptical hosts, detected by the Zwicky Transient Facility Bright Transient Survey (BTS). SN 2019ape is a SN I…
How much H and He is "hidden" in SNe Ib/c? -- II. Intermediate-mass objects: a 22 M progenitor case study
Jacob Teffs, Thomas Ertl, Paolo Mazzali +2
Stripped envelope supernovae are a sub-class of core collapse supernovae showing several stages of H/He shell stripping that determines the class: H-free/He-poor SNe are classified…
Observations and Spectral Modelling of the Narrow-Lined Type Ic SN 2017ein
Jacob Teffs, Simon J. Prentice, Paolo Mazzali +1
SN 2017ein is a narrow-lined Type Ic SN that was found to share a location with a point-like source in the face on spiral galaxy NGC 3938 in pre-supernova images, making SN 2017ein…
Type Ic Supernova of a 22 Progenitor
Jacob Teffs, Thomas Ertl, Paolo Mazzali +2
Type Ic supernovae (SNe Ic) are a sub-class of core-collapse supernovae that exhibit no helium or hydrogen lines in their spectra. Their progenitors are thought to be bare carbon-o…
