Carnegie Supernova Project-II: Extending the Near-Infrared Hubble Diagram for Type Ia Supernovae to
M. M. Phillips, Carlos Contreras, E. Y. Hsiao +41
The Carnegie Supernova Project-II (CSP-II) was an NSF-funded, four-year program to obtain optical and near-infrared observations of a "Cosmology" sample of Type Ia supern…
SN 2012fr: Ultraviolet, Optical, and Near-Infrared Light Curves of a Type Ia Supernova Observed Within a Day of Explosion
Carlos Contreras, M. M. Phillips, Christopher R. Burns +32
We present detailed ultraviolet, optical and near-infrared light curves of the Type Ia supernova (SN) 2012fr, which exploded in the Fornax cluster member NGC 1365. These precise hi…
The Rising Light Curves of Type Ia Supernovae
R. E. Firth, M. Sullivan, A. Gal-Yam +11
We present an analysis of the early, rising light curves of 18 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) discovered by the Palomar Transient Factory (PTF) and the La Silla-QUEST variability surv…
Exploring the spectral diversity of low-redshift Type Ia supernovae using the Palomar Transient Factory
Kate Maguire, Mark Sullivan, Yen-Chen Pan +15
We present an investigation of the optical spectra of 264 low-redshift (z < 0.2) Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) discovered by the Palomar Transient Factory, an untargeted transient su…
Optical Follow-Up Observations of PTF10qts, a Luminous Broad-Lined Type Ic Supernova Found by the Palomar Transient Factory
E. S. Walker, P. A. Mazzali, E. Pian +22
We present optical photometry and spectroscopy of the broad-lined Type Ic supernova (SNIc-BL) PTF10qts, which was discovered as part of the Palomar Transient Factory. The supernova…
Super-luminous supernovae from PESSTO
M. Nicholl, S. J. Smartt, A. Jerkstrand +29
We present optical spectra and light curves for three hydrogen-poor super-luminous supernovae followed by the Public ESO Spectroscopic Survey of Transient Objects (PESSTO). Time se…
