Introducing STARDIS: An Open and Modular Stellar Spectral Synthesis Code

Joshua V. Shields, Wolfgang Kerzendorf, Isaac G. Smith +7

We introduce a new 1D stellar spectral synthesis Python code called stardis. stardis is a modular, open-source radiative transfer code that is capable of spectral synthesis from ne…

1991T-Like Type Ia Supernovae as an Extension of the Normal Population

John T. O'Brien, Wolfgang E. Kerzendorf, Andrew Fullard +7

Type Ia supernovae remain poorly understood despite decades of investigation. Massive computationally intensive hydrodynamic simulations have been developed and run to model an eve…

SN 2019ewu: A Peculiar Supernova with Early Strong Carbon and Weak Oxygen Features from a New Sample of Young SN Ic Spectra

Marc Williamson, Christian Vogl, Maryam Modjaz +17

With the advent of high cadence, all-sky automated surveys, supernovae (SNe) are now discovered closer than ever to their dates of explosion. However, young pre-maximum light follo…

StaNdaRT: A repository of standardized test models and outputs for supernova radiative transfer

Stéphane Blondin, Sergei Blinnikov, Fionntan P. Callan +26

We present the first results of a comprehensive supernova (SN) radiative-transfer (RT) code-comparison initiative (StaNdaRT), where the emission from the same set of standardized t…

SN 2016dsg: A Thermonuclear Explosion Involving A Thick Helium Shell

Yize Dong, Stefano Valenti, Abigail Polin +29

A thermonuclear explosion triggered by a helium-shell detonation on a carbon-oxygen white dwarf core has been predicted to have strong UV line blanketing at early times due to the…

ASASSN-14lp: two possible solutions for the observed UV suppression

Barnabás Barna, Talytha Pereira, Stefan Taubenberger +10

We test the adequacy of ultraviolet (UV) spectra for characterizing the outer structure of Type Ia supernova (SN) ejecta. For this purpose, we perform spectroscopic analysis for AS…
