Properties of the circumstellar matter around the pair-instability supernova candidate SN 2018ibb revealed by its light curve

Takashi J. Moriya, Steve Schulze, Alexander Heger +2

SN 2018ibb is one of the best pair-instability supernova (PISN) candidates identified to date. It, however, showed unexpected blue flux excess in late-phase spectra, likely origina…

Superlinear Type II Superluminous Supernovae 2017fck and 2019cmv: A Possible Origin from Interacting Thermonuclear Supernovae

Daichi Hiramatsu, Takashi J. Moriya, D. Andrew Howell +9

Additional power sources to traditional supernovae (SNe) are necessary to account for the extreme luminosities of superluminous SNe (SLSNe). A main power source for hydrogen-rich S…

Electron-capture Supernova Candidates from Light Curves: Implications for Their Progenitors and Explosion Properties

Masato Sato, Nozomu Tominaga, Sergei I. Blinnikov +5

Core-collapse supernovae are explosions of massive stars. While most massive stars end as iron-core-collapse supernovae, less massive stars are expected to explode as electron-capt…

Type Ibn supernovae from ultra-stripped supernova progenitors

Takashi J. Moriya, Bernhard Mueller, Sergei I. Blinnikov +4

Ultra-stripped supernovae are core-collapse supernovae from progenitors that lose a significant fraction of mass because of the binary interactions with their compact companion sta…

A Robust Light-Curve Diagnostic for Electron-Capture Supernovae and Low-Mass Fe-Core-Collapse Supernovae

Masato Sato, Nozomu Tominaga, Sergei I. Blinnikov +3

Core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) are the terminal explosions of massive stars. While most massive stars explode as iron-core-collapse supernovae (FeCCSNe), slightly less massive st…

The effects of Thomson scattering and chemical mixing on early-time light curves of double peaked type IIb supernovae

Seong Hyun Park, Sung-Chul Yoon, Sergei Blinnikov

Previous numerical simulations of double-peaked SNe IIb light curves have demonstrated that the radius and mass of the hydrogen-rich envelope of the progenitor star can significant…
