The ESO supernovae type Ia progenitor survey (SPY)

R. Napiwotzki, C. A. Karl, T. Lisker +13

Close double degenerate binaries are one of the favoured progenitor channels for type Ia supernovae, but it is unclear how many suitable systems there are in the Galaxy. We report…

Exploring the Outer Solar System with the ESSENCE Supernova Survey

A. C. Becker, K. Arraki, N. A. Kaib +36

We report the discovery and orbit determination of 14 trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) from the ESSENCE Supernova Survey difference imaging dataset. Two additional objects discovered…

Hydrogen and helium traces in type Ib-c supernovae

A. Elmhamdi, I. J. Danziger, D. Branch +3

The spectroscopic properties of a selected optical photospheric spectra of core collapse supernovae (CCSNe) are investigated.Special attention is devoted to traces of hydrogen at e…

Epochs of Maximum Light and Bolometric Light Curves of Type Ia Supernovae

G. Contardo, B. Leibundgut, W. D. Vacca

We present empirical fits to the UBVRI light curves of type Ia supernovae. These fits are used to objectively evaluate light curve parameters. We find that the relative times of ma…

Discovery of the peculiar supernova 1998bw in the error box of GRB980425

T. J. Galama, P. M. Vreeswijk, J. van Paradijs +42

The discovery of X-ray, optical and radio afterglows of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and the measurements of the distances to some of them have established that these events come from G…
