Discovery and Follow-up Observations of the Young Type Ia Supernova 2016coj

WeiKang Zheng, Alexei V. Filippenko, Jon Mauerhan +39

The Type~Ia supernova (SN~Ia) 2016coj in NGC 4125 (redshift ) was discovered by the Lick Observatory Supernova Search 4.9 days after the fitted first-light time (FFLT;…

After the Fall: Late-Time Spectroscopy of Type IIP Supernovae

Jeffrey M. Silverman, Stephanie Pickett, J. Craig Wheeler +11

Herein we analyse late-time (post-plateau; 103 < t < 1229 d) optical spectra of low-redshift (z < 0.016), hydrogen-rich Type IIP supernovae (SNe IIP). Our newly constructed sample…

Revisiting the Lick Observatory Supernova Search Volume-Limited Sample: Updated Classifications and Revised Stripped-Envelope Supernova Fractions

Isaac Shivvers, Maryam Modjaz, Weikang Zheng +11

We re-examine the classifications of supernovae (SNe) presented in the Lick Observatory Supernova Search (LOSS) volume-limited sample with a focus on the stripped-envelope SNe. The…

Optical Identification of Cepheids in 19 Host Galaxies of Type Ia Supernovae and NGC 4258 with the Hubble Space Telescope

Samantha L. Hoffmann, Lucas M. Macri, Adam G. Riess +10

We present results of an optical search for Cepheid variable stars using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) in 19 hosts of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) and the maser-host galaxy NGC 4…

Optical and ultraviolet spectroscopic analysis of SN 2011fe at late times

Brian Friesen, E. Baron, Jerod T. Parrent +16

We present optical spectra of the nearby Type Ia supernova SN 2011fe at 100, 205, 311, 349, and 578 days post-maximum light, as well as an ultraviolet spectrum obtained with Hubble…

The Continuing Story of SN IIb 2013df: New Optical and IR Observations and Analysis

Tamás Szalai, József Vinkó, Andrea P. Nagy +17

SN 2013df is a nearby Type IIb supernova that seems to be the spectroscopic twin of the well-known SN 1993J. Previous studies revealed many, but not all interesting properties of t…
