Endurance of SN 2005ip after a decade: X-rays, radio, and H-alpha like SN 1988Z require long-lived pre-supernova mass loss

Nathan Smith, Charles D. Kilpatrick, Jon C. Mauerhan +8

SN2005ip was a TypeIIn event notable for its sustained strong interaction with circumstellar material (CSM), coronal emission lines, and IR excess, interpreted as shock interaction…

An Empirical Fitting Method for Type Ia Supernova Light Curves. II. Estimating the First-Light Time and Rise Time

WeiKang Zheng, Patrick L. Kelly, Alexei V. Filippenko

We investigate a new empirical fitting method for the optical light curves of Type Ia supernovae (SNe~Ia) that is able to estimate the first-light time of SNe~Ia, even when they ar…

Discovery and Follow-up Observations of the Young Type Ia Supernova 2016coj

WeiKang Zheng, Alexei V. Filippenko, Jon Mauerhan +39

The Type~Ia supernova (SN~Ia) 2016coj in NGC 4125 (redshift ) was discovered by the Lick Observatory Supernova Search 4.9 days after the fitted first-light time (FFLT;…

The Candidate Progenitor of the Type IIn SN 2010jl is Not an Optically Luminous Star

Ori D. Fox, Schuyler D. Van Dyk, Eli Dwek +8

The nature of the progenitor star (or system) for the Type IIn supernova (SN) subclass remains uncertain. While there are direct imaging constraints on the progenitors of at least…

The Grism Lens-Amplified Survey from Space (GLASS) X. Sub-kpc resolution gas-phase metallicity maps at cosmic noon behind the Hubble Frontier Fields cluster MACS1149.6+2223

Xin Wang, Tucker A. Jones, Tommaso Treu +17

(Abridged) We combine deep HST grism spectroscopy with a new Bayesian method to derive maps of gas-phase metallicity, nebular dust extinction, and star-formation rate for 10 star-f…

After the Fall: Late-Time Spectroscopy of Type IIP Supernovae

Jeffrey M. Silverman, Stephanie Pickett, J. Craig Wheeler +11

Herein we analyse late-time (post-plateau; 103 < t < 1229 d) optical spectra of low-redshift (z < 0.016), hydrogen-rich Type IIP supernovae (SNe IIP). Our newly constructed sample…
