The Massive Progenitor of the Type II-Linear SN 2009kr
N. Elias-Rosa, S. D. Van Dyk, W. Li +13
We present early-time photometric and spectroscopic observations of supernova (SN) 2009kr in NGC 1832. We find that its properties to date support its classification as Type II-lin…
An Unusually Fast-Evolving Supernova
Dovi Poznanski, Ryan Chornock, Peter E. Nugent +6
Analyses of supernovae (SNe) have revealed two main types of progenitors: exploding white dwarfs and collapsing massive stars. We present SN2002bj, which stands out as different fr…
SN 2008iy: An Unusual Type IIn Supernova with an Enduring 400 Day Rise Time
A. A. Miller, J. M. Silverman, N. R. Butler +9
We present spectroscopic and photometric observations of the Type IIn supernova (SN) 2008iy. SN 2008iy showed an unprecedentedly long rise time of ~400 days, making it the first SN…
Optical Observations of the Rapidly Expanding Type Ia Supernova 2007gi
T. Zhang, X. Wang, W. Li +13
We present optical photometry and spectra for the Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2007gi in the nearby galaxy NGC 4036. SN 2007gi is characterized by extremely high-velocity (HV) feature…
The normal Type Ia SN 2003hv out to very late phases
G. Leloudas, M. D. Stritzinger, J. Sollerman +19
An extensive dataset for SN 2003hv that covers the flux evolution from maximum light to day +786 is presented. The data are combined with published nebular-phase infrared spectra,…
The Lick AGN Monitoring Project: Broad-Line Region Radii and Black Hole Masses from Reverberation Mapping of Hbeta
Misty C. Bentz, Jonelle L. Walsh, Aaron J. Barth +24
We have recently completed a 64-night spectroscopic monitoring campaign at the Lick Observatory 3-m Shane telescope with the aim of measuring the masses of the black holes in 12 ne…
