Multi-epoch high-resolution spectroscopy of SN2011fe - Linking the progenitor to its environment
F. Patat, M. A. Cordiner, N. L. J. Cox +10
This study attempts to establish a link between the reasonably well known nature of the progenitor of SN2011fe and its surrounding environment. This is done with the aim of enablin…
Constraining the physical properties of Type II-P supernovae using nebular phase spectra
Kate Maguire, Anders Jerkstrand, Stephen J. Smartt +6
We present a study of the nebular phase spectra of a sample of Type II-Plateau supernovae with identified progenitors or restrictive limits. The evolution of line fluxes, shapes, a…
The Type II supernovae 2006V and 2006au: two SN 1987A-like events
F. Taddia, M. D. Stritzinger, J. Sollerman +11
Supernova 1987A revealed that a blue supergiant (BSG) star can end its life as a core-collapse supernova (SN). SN 1987A and other similar objects exhibit properties that distinguis…
SN 2009E: a faint clone of SN 1987A
A. Pastorello, M. L. Pumo, H. Navasardyan +26
In this paper we investigate the properties of SN 2009E, which exploded in a relatively nearby spiral galaxy (NGC 4141) and that is probably the faintest 1987A-like supernova disco…
SN 2009jf: a slow-evolving stripped-envelope core-collapse supernova
S. Valenti, M. Fraser, S. Benetti +28
We present an extensive set of photometric and spectroscopic data for SN 2009jf, a nearby Type Ib supernova, spanning from ~20 days before B-band maximum to one year after maximum.…
The Yellow Supergiant Progenitor of the Type II Supernova 2011dh in M51
J. R. Maund, M. Fraser, M. Ergon +11
We present the detection of the progenitor of the Type II SN 2011dh in archival pre-explosion Hubble Space Telescope images. Using post-explosion Adaptive Optics imaging with Gemin…
