Lick Observatory Supernova Search Follow-Up Program: Photometry Data Release of 93 Type Ia Supernovae

Benjamin E. Stahl, WeiKang Zheng, Thomas de Jaeger +52

We present BVRI and unfiltered light curves of 93 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) from the Lick Observatory Supernova Search (LOSS) follow-up program conducted between 2005 and 2018. O…

Hubble Space Telescope and Ground-Based Observations of the Type Iax Supernovae SN 2005hk and SN 2008A

Curtis McCully, Saurabh W. Jha, Ryan J. Foley +24

We present Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and ground-based optical and near-infrared observations of SN 2005hk and SN 2008A, typical members of the Type Iax class of supernovae (SNe)…

Late-Time Circumstellar Interaction in a Spitzer Selected Sample of Type IIn Supernovae

Ori D. Fox, Alexei V. Filippenko, Michael F. Skrutskie +4

Type IIn supernovae (SNe IIn) are a rare (< 10%) subclass of core-collapse SNe that exhibit relatively narrow emission lines from a dense, pre-existing circumstellar medium (CSM).…

Type Iax Supernovae: A New Class of Stellar Explosion

Ryan J. Foley, P. J. Challis, R. Chornock +19

We describe observed properties of the Type Iax class of supernovae (SNe Iax), consisting of SNe observationally similar to its prototypical member, SN 2002cx. The class currently…
