Distances with <4% Precision from Type Ia Supernovae in Young Star-Forming Environments
Patrick L. Kelly, Alexei V. Filippenko, David L. Burke +3
The luminosities of Type Ia supernovae (SNe), the thermonuclear explosions of white-dwarf stars, vary systematically with their intrinsic color and the rate at which they fade. Fro…
A Sample of Type II-L Supernovae
T. Faran, D. Poznanski, A. V. Filippenko +8
What are Type II-Linear supernovae (SNe II-L)? This class, which has been ill defined for decades, now receives significant attention -- both theoretically, in order to understand…
Twins for life? A comparative analysis of the Type Ia supernovae 2011fe and 2011by
Melissa L. Graham, Ryan J. Foley, Weikang Zheng +6
The nearby Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) 2011fe and 2011by had nearly identical photospheric phase optical spectra, light-curve widths, and photometric colours, but at peak brightnes…
Optical Observations of the Type Ic Supernova 2007gr in NGC 1058 and Implications for the Properties of its Progenitor
Juncheng Chen, Xiaofeng Wang, Mohan Ganeshalingam +6
We present extensive optical observations of the normal Type Ic supernova (SN) 2007gr, spanning from about one week before maximum light to more than one year thereafter. The optic…
Photometric and Spectroscopic Properties of Type II-P Supernovae
Tamar Faran, Dovi Poznanski, Alexei V. Filippenko +9
We study a sample of 23 Type II Plateau supernovae (SNe II-P), all observed with the same set of instruments. Analysis of their photometric evolution confirms that their typical pl…
