A statistical analysis of circumstellar material in Type Ia supernovae
Kate Maguire, Mark Sullivan, Ferdinando Patat +42
A key tracer of the elusive progenitor systems of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) is the detection of narrow blueshifted time-varying Na I D absorption lines, interpreted as evidence o…
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…
Linking Type Ia Supernova Progenitors and their Resulting Explosions
Ryan J. Foley, Joshua D. Simon, Christopher R. Burns +7
Comparing the ejecta velocities at maximum brightness and narrow circumstellar/interstellar Na D absorption line profiles of a sample of 23 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), we determin…
PTF10ops - a subluminous, normal-width lightcurve Type Ia supernova in the middle of nowhere
Kate Maguire, Mark Sullivan, Rollin C. Thomas +26
PTF10ops is a Type Ia supernova (SN Ia), whose lightcurve and spectral properties place it outside the current SN Ia subtype classifications. Its spectra display the characteristic…
PTF1 J071912.13+485834.0: An outbursting AM CVn system discovered by a synoptic survey
David Levitan, Benjamin J. Fulton, Paul J. Groot +14
We present extensive photometric and spectroscopic observations of PTF1 J071912.13+485834.0, an outbursting AM CVn system discovered by the Palomar Transient Factory (PTF). AM CVn…
