Final Spitzer IRAC Observations of the Rise and Fall of SN 1987A

Richard G. Arendt, Eli Dwek, Patrice Bouchet +4

Spitzer's final Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) observations of SN 1987A show the 3.6 and 4.5 m emission from the equatorial ring (ER) continues a period of steady decline. Deconvo…

The Yellow Supergiant Progenitor of the Type II Supernova 2011dh in M51

J. R. Maund, M. Fraser, M. Ergon +11

We present the detection of the progenitor of the Type II SN 2011dh in archival pre-explosion Hubble Space Telescope images. Using post-explosion Adaptive Optics imaging with Gemin…

An empirical calibration of Lick indices using Milky Way Globular Clusters

A. Pipino, I. J. Danziger

To provide an empirical calibration relation in order to convert Lick indices into abundances for the integrated light of old, simple stellar populations for a large range in the o…

Five Years of Mid-Infrared Evolution of the Remnant of SN 1987A: The Encounter Between the Blast Wave and the Dusty Equatorial Ring

Eli Dwek, Richard G. Arendt, Patrice Bouchet +9

We have used the Spitzer satellite to monitor the mid-IR evolution of SN 1987A over a 5 year period spanning the epochs between days 6000 and 8000 since the explosion. The supernov…

Photometric Evolution of SNe Ib/c 2004ao, 2004gk and 2006gi

A. Elmhamdi, D. Tsvetkov, I. J. Danziger +1

Photometric observations of three core collapse supernovae (SNe 2004ao, 2004gk and 2006gi), covering about 200 days of evolution are presented and analyzed. The photometric behavio…

On the progenitor and early evolution of the type II supernova 2009kr

M. Fraser, K. Takats, A. Pastorello +13

We report the identification of a source coincident with SN 2009kr in HST pre-explosion images. The object appears to be a single point source with an intrinsic colour V-I = 1.1 an…
