The Distance to SN 1999em in NGC 1637 from the Expanding Photosphere Method
Douglas C. Leonard, Alexei V. Filippenko, Elinor L. Gates +13
We present 30 optical spectra and 49 photometric epochs sampling the first 517 days after discovery of supernova (SN) 1999em, and derive its distance through the expanding photosph…
The Distance to SN 1999em from the Expanding Photosphere Method
M. Hamuy, P. A. Pinto, J. Maza +22
We present optical and IR spectroscopy of the first two months of evolution of the Type II SN 1999em. We combine these data with high-quality optical/IR photometry beginning only t…
A Test for the Nature of the Type Ia Supernova Explosion Mechanism
Philip A. Pinto, Ronald G. Eastman, Tamara Rogers
Currently popular models for Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) fall into two general classes. The first comprises explosions of nearly pure carbon/oxygen (C/O) white dwarfs at the Chandr…
The Type Ia Supernova Width-Luminosity Relation
Philip A. Pinto, Ronald G. Eastman
Observations of type Ia supernovae at high redshifts have become an important tool for studying the geometry of the universe. The relation between the duration of the peak phase of…
A New Algorithm for Supernova Neutrino Transport and Some Applications
A. Burrows, T. Young, P. A. Pinto +2
We have developed an implicit, multi-group, time-dependent, spherical neutrino transport code based on the Feautrier variables, the tangent-ray method, and accelerated it…
Gamma-Ray Bursts and Type Ic Supernovae: SN 1998bw
S. E. Woosley, Ronald G. Eastman, Brian P. Schmidt
Recently a Type Ic supernova, SN 1998bw, was discovered coincident with a gamma-ray burst, GRB 980425. The supernova had unusual radio, optical, and spectroscopic properties. We ex…
