PESSTO : survey description and products from the first data release by the Public ESO Spectroscopic Survey of Transient Objects
S. J. Smartt, S. Valenti, M. Fraser +99
The Public European Southern Observatory Spectroscopic Survey of Transient Objects (PESSTO) began as a public spectroscopic survey in April 2012. We describe the data reduction str…
Photometric and spectroscopic observations, and abundance tomography modelling of the type Ia supernova SN 2014J located in M82
C. Ashall, P. Mazzali, D. Bersier +5
Spectroscopic and photometric observations of the nearby Type Ia Supernova (SN Ia) SN 2014J are presented. Spectroscopic observations were taken -8 to +10 d relative to B-band maxi…
Defining Photometric Peculiar Type Ia Supernovae
S. Gonzalez-Gaitan, E. Y. Hsiao, G. Pignata +9
We present a new photometric identification technique for SN 1991bg-like type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), i.e. objects with light-curve characteristics such as later primary maxima and…
Comprehensive Observations of the Bright and Energetic Type Iax SN 2012Z: Interpretation as a Chandrasekhar Mass White Dwarf Explosion
M. D. Stritzinger, S. Valenti, P. Hoeflich +19
We present UV through NIR broad-band photometry, and optical and NIR spectroscopy of Type Iax supernova 2012Z. The data set consists of both early and late-time observations, inclu…
The Carnegie Supernova Project: Intrinsic Colors of Type Ia Supernovae
Christopher R. Burns, Maximilian Stritzinger, M. M. Phillips +12
We present an updated analysis of the intrinsic colors of SNe Ia using the latest data release of the Carnegie Supernova Project. We introduce a new light-curve parameter very simi…
