Late-Time Optical and X-ray Emission Evolution of the Oxygen-Rich SN 1996cr

Daniel Patnaude, Kathryn Weil, Robert Fesen +2

When the ejecta of supernovae interact with the progenitor star's circumstellar environment, a strong shock is driven back into the ejecta, causing the material to become bright op…

PS1-11aop: Probing the Mass Loss History of a Luminous Interacting Supernova Prior to its Final Eruption with Multi-wavelength Observations

Adaeze L. Ibik, Maria R. Drout, Raffaela Margutti +14

Luminous interacting supernovae are a class of stellar explosions whose progenitors underwent vigorous mass loss in the years prior to core-collapse. While the mechanism by which t…
