Seeing Double: ASASSN-18bt Exhibits a Two-Component Rise in the Early-Time K2 Light Curve
B. J. Shappee, T. W. -s. Holoien, M. R. Drout +109
On 2018 Feb. 4.41, the All-Sky Automated Survey for SuperNovae (ASAS-SN) discovered ASASSN-18bt in the K2 Campaign 16 field. With a redshift of z=0.01098 and a peak apparent magnit…
A Significantly off-center Ni56 Distribution for the Low-Luminosity Type Ia Supernova SN 2016brx from the 100IAS survey
Subo Dong, Boaz Katz, Juna A. Kollmeier +17
We present nebular-phase spectra of the Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2016brx, a member of the 1991bg-like subclass that lies at the faint end of the SN Ia luminosity function. Nebular…
Type Ia supernovae have two physical width-luminosity relations and they favor sub-Chandrasekhar and direct collision models - II. Color evolution
Nahliel Wygoda, Boaz Katz, Yonatan Elbaz
While the width-luminosity relation (WLR) among type Ia supernovae (slower is brighter) is one of the best studied properties of this type of events, its physical basis has not bee…
Extreme close approaches in hierarchical triple systems with comparable masses
Niv Haim, Boaz Katz
We study close approaches in hierarchical triple systems with comparable masses using full N-body simulations, motivated by a recent model for type Ia supernovae involving direct c…
ASASSN-15nx: A luminous Type II supernova with a "perfect" linear decline
Subhash Bose, Subo Dong, C. S. Kochanek +24
We report a luminous Type II supernova, ASASSN-15nx, with a peak luminosity of M_V=-20 mag, that is between typical core-collapse supernovae and super-luminous supernovae. The post…
