SN 2005at - A neglected type Ic supernova at 10 Mpc

E. Kankare, M. Fraser, S. Ryder +7

We present a photometric and spectroscopic study of a reddened type Ic supernova (SN) 2005at. We report our results based on the available data of SN 2005at, including late-time ob…

Underluminous Type II Plateau Supernovae: II. Pointing towards moderate mass precursors

S. Spiro, A. Pastorello, M. L. Pumo +38

We present new data for five under-luminous type II-plateau supernovae (SNe IIP), namely SN 1999gn, SN 2002gd, SN 2003Z, SN 2004eg and SN 2006ov. This new sample of low-luminosity…

The normal Type Ia SN 2003hv out to very late phases

G. Leloudas, M. D. Stritzinger, J. Sollerman +19

An extensive dataset for SN 2003hv that covers the flux evolution from maximum light to day +786 is presented. The data are combined with published nebular-phase infrared spectra,…

SN 1999ga: a low-luminosity linear type II supernova?

A. Pastorello, R. M. Crockett, R. Martin +11

Type II-linear supernovae are thought to arise from progenitors that have lost most of their H envelope by the time of the explosion, and they are poorly understood because they ar…

Spectroscopy of High-Redshift Supernovae from the ESSENCE Project: The First Four Years

R. J. Foley, T. Matheson, S. Blondin +23

We present the results of spectroscopic observations from the ESSENCE high-redshift supernova (SN) survey during its first four years of operation. This sample includes spectra of…

Optical and IR observations of SN 2002dj: some possible common properties of fast expanding SNe Ia

G. Pignata, S. Benetti, P. A. Mazzali +17

As part of the European Supernova Collaboration we obtained extensive photometry and spectroscopy of the type Ia SN 2002dj covering epochs from 11 days before to nearly two years a…
