The first month of evolution of the slow rising type II-P SN 2013ej in M74
S. Valenti, D. Sand, A. Pastorello +14
We present early photometric and spectroscopic observations of SN 2013ej, a bright type IIP supernova in M74. SN 2013ej is one of the closest SNe ever discovered. The available arc…
On the progenitor of the Type IIP SN 2013ej in M74
Morgan Fraser, Justyn R. Maund, Stephen J. Smartt +10
We use natural seeing imaging of SN 2013ej in M74 to identify a progenitor candidate in archival {\it Hubble Space Telescope} + ACS images. We find a source coincident with the SN…
Locations of Peculiar Supernovae as a Diagnostic of Their Origins
Fang Yuan, Chiaki Kobayashi, Brian P. Schmidt +3
We put constraints on the properties of the progenitors of peculiar calcium-rich transients using the distribution of locations within their host galaxies. We confirm that this cla…
SN 2009ip á la PESSTO: No evidence for core-collapse yet
Morgan Fraser, Cosimo Inserra, Anders Jerkstrand +35
We present observations of the interacting transient SN 2009ip, from the start of the outburst in October 2012 until the end of the 2012 observing season. The transient reached a p…
Rates of Superluminous Supernovae at z~0.2
Robert M. Quimby, Fang Yuan, Car Akerlof +1
We calculate the volumetric rate of superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) based on 5 events discovered with the ROTSE-IIIb telescope. We gather light curves of 19 events from the litera…
PESSTO monitoring of SN 2012hn: further heterogeneity among faint type I supernovae
S. Valenti, F. Yuan, S. Taubenberger +24
We present optical and infrared monitoring data of SN 2012hn collected by the Public ESO Spectroscopic Survey for Transient Objects (PESSTO). We show that SN 2012hn has a faint pea…
