Type II-P supernovae as standardised candles: improvements using near infrared data
Kate Maguire, Rubina Kotak, Stephen J. Smartt +3
We present the first near infrared Hubble diagram for type II-P supernovae to further explore their value as distance indicators. We use a modified version of the standardised cand…
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…
Progenitors of core-collapse supernovae
Stephen J. Smartt
Knowledge of the progenitors of core-collapse supernovae is a fundamental component in understanding the explosions. The recent progress in finding such stars is reviewed. The mini…
The Disappearance of the Progenitors of Supernovae 1993J and 2003gd
Justyn R. Maund, Stephen J. Smartt
Using images from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and the Gemini Telescope we confirm the disappearance of the progenitors of two Type II supernovae (SNe), and evaluate the presen…
SN 2005cs in M51 II. Complete Evolution in the Optical and the Near-Infrared
A. Pastorello, S. Valenti, L. Zampieri +31
We present the results of the one year long observational campaign of the type II-plateau SN 2005cs, which exploded in the nearby spiral galaxy M51 (the Whirlpool Galaxy). This ext…
