SOUSA: the Swift Optical/Ultraviolet Supernova Archive
Peter J. Brown, Alice A. Breeveld, Stephen Holland +2
The Ultra-Violet Optical Telescope on the Swift spacecraft has observed hundreds of supernovae, covering all major types and most subtypes. Here we introduce the Swift Optical/Ultr…
The Type IIP Supernova 2012aw in M95: hydrodynamical modelling of the photospheric phase from accurate spectrophotometric monitoring
M. Dall'Ora, M. T. Botticella, M. L. Pumo +38
We present an extensive optical and near-infrared photometric and spectroscopic campaign of the type IIP supernova SN 2012aw. The dataset densely covers the evolution of SN 2012aw…
Ultraviolet Observations of Super-Chandrasekhar Mass Type Ia Supernova Candidates with Swift UVOT
Peter J. Brown, Paul Kuin, Richard Scalzo +6
Among Type Ia supernovae (SNe~Ia) exist a class of overluminous objects whose ejecta mass is inferred to be larger than the canonical Chandrasekhar mass. We present and discuss the…
Hubble Space Telescope Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopy of the Recurrent Nova T Pyxidis
P. Godon, E. M. Sion, S. Starrfield +5
With six recorded nova outbursts, the prototypical recurrent nova T Pyxidis is the ideal cataclysmic variable system to assess the net change of the white dwarf mass within a nova…
A panchromatic analysis of starburst galaxy M82: Probing the dust properties
S. Hutton, I. Ferreras, K. Wu +5
(Abridged) We combine NUV, optical and IR imaging of the nearby starburst galaxy M82 to explore the properties of the dust both in the interstellar medium of the galaxy and the dus…
