The Massive Progenitor of the Type II-Linear SN 2009kr
N. Elias-Rosa, S. D. Van Dyk, W. Li +13
We present early-time photometric and spectroscopic observations of supernova (SN) 2009kr in NGC 1832. We find that its properties to date support its classification as Type II-lin…
Large Late-time Asphericities in Three Type IIP Supernovae
Ryan Chornock, Alexei V. Filippenko, Weidong Li +1
Type II-plateau supernovae (SNe IIP) are the results of the explosions of red supergiants and are the most common subclass of core-collapse supernovae. Past observations have shown…
An Unusually Fast-Evolving Supernova
Dovi Poznanski, Ryan Chornock, Peter E. Nugent +6
Analyses of supernovae (SNe) have revealed two main types of progenitors: exploding white dwarfs and collapsing massive stars. We present SN2002bj, which stands out as different fr…
The Carnegie Supernova Project: First Photometry Data Release of Low-Redshift Type Ia Supernovae
Carlos Contreras, Mario Hamuy, M. M. Phillips +18
The Carnegie Supernova Project (CSP) is a five-year survey being carried out at the Las Campanas Observatory to obtain high-quality light curves of ~100 low-redshift Type Ia supern…
The Carnegie Supernova Project: Analysis of the First Sample of Low-Redshift Type-Ia Supernovae
Gaston Folatelli, M. M. Phillips, Christopher R. Burns +19
We present the analysis of the first set of low-redshift Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) by the Carnegie Supernova Project. Well-sampled, high-precision optical (ugriBV) and near-infra…
On the Progenitor of the Type II-Plateau SN 2008cn in NGC 4603
N. Elias-Rosa, S. D. Van Dyk, W. Li +7
Through comparison of pre- and post-explosion images obtained with the Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 onboard the Hubble Space Telescope, we have isolated a supergiant star prio…
