On type IIn/Ia-CSM supernovae as exemplified by SN 2012ca
C. Inserra, M. Fraser, S. J. Smartt +15
We present the complete set of ultra-violet, optical and near-infrared photometry and spectroscopy for SN 2012ca, covering the period from 6~days prior to maximum light, until 531…
On the triple peaks of SNHunt248 in NGC 5806
E. Kankare, R. Kotak, A. Pastorello +19
We present our findings on a supernova (SN) impostor, SNHunt248, based on optical and near-IR data spanning 15 yrs before discovery, to 1 yr post-discovery. The light c…
Total eclipse of the heart: The AM CVn Gaia14aae / ASSASN-14cn
H. C. Campbell, T. R. Marsh, M. Fraser +82
We report the discovery and characterisation of a deeply eclipsing AM CVn-system, Gaia14aae (= ASSASN-14cn). Gaia14aae was identified independently by the All-Sky Automated Survey…
On the diversity of super-luminous supernovae: ejected mass as the dominant factor
M. Nicholl, S. J. Smartt, A. Jerkstrand +37
We assemble a sample of 24 hydrogen-poor super-luminous supernovae (SLSNe). Parameterizing the light curve shape through rise and decline timescales shows that the two are highly c…
SN 2009ip at late times - an interacting transient at +2 years
Morgan Fraser, Rubina Kotak, Andrea Pastorello +31
We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of the interacting transient SN 2009ip taken during the 2013 and 2014 observing seasons. We characterise the photometric evolu…
A comparative study of Type II-P and II-L supernova rise times as exemplified by the case of LSQ13cuw
E. E. E. Gall, J. Polshaw, R. Kotak +17
We report on our findings based on the analysis of observations of the Type II-L supernova LSQ13cuw within the framework of currently accepted physical predictions of core-collapse…
