Spectroscopy of High-Redshift Supernovae from the ESSENCE Project: The First Four Years

R. J. Foley, T. Matheson, S. Blondin +23

We present the results of spectroscopic observations from the ESSENCE high-redshift supernova (SN) survey during its first four years of operation. This sample includes spectra of…

The Chemical Abundances of Tycho G in Supernova Remnant 1572

Jonay I. González Hernández, Pilar Ruiz-Lapuente, Alexei V. Filippenko +3

We present an analysis of the chemical abundances of the star Tycho G in the direction of the remnant of supernova (SN) 1572, based on Keck high-resolution optical spectra. The ste…

Coronal lines and dust formation in SN 2005ip: Not the brightest, but the hottest Type IIn supernova

Nathan Smith, Jeffrey M. Silverman, Ryan Chornock +7

We present optical photometry and spectroscopy of SN2005ip for the first 3yr after discovery, showing an underlying Type II-L SN interacting with a steady wind to yield an unusual…

Luminosity Indicators in the Ultraviolet Spectra of Type Ia Supernovae

Ryan J. Foley, Alexei V. Filippenko, Saurabh W. Jha

We present a complete sample of International Ultraviolet Explorer and Hubble Space Telescope ultraviolet (UV) spectra of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) through 2004. We measure the e…
