Young Stellar Objects in the Carina nebula: Near-Infrared variability and spectroscopy
Jura Borissova, Radostin Kurtev, Josemanuel Escobar +10
We present a catalog of 652 young stellar objects (YSOs) in the Carina star-forming region. The catalog was constructed by combining near-infrared Ks-band variability from the VIST…
Type II supernovae from the Carnegie Supernova Project-I. I. Bolometric light curves of 74 SNe II using uBgVriYJH photometry
L. Martinez, M. C. Bersten, J. P. Anderson +18
The present study is the first of a series of three papers where we characterise the type II supernovae (SNe~II) from the Carnegie Supernova Project-I to understand their diversity…
Carnegie Supernova Project: The First Homogeneous Sample of "Super-Chandrasekhar Mass"/2003fg-like Type Ia Supernova
C. Ashall, J. Lu, E. Y. Hsiao +38
We present a multi-wavelength photometric and spectroscopic analysis of thirteen "Super-Chandrasekhar Mass"/2003fg-like type Ia Supernova (SNe~Ia). Nine of these objects were obser…
Carnegie Supernova Project-II: The Near-infrared Spectroscopy Program
E. Y. Hsiao, M. M. Phillips, G. H. Marion +42
Shifting the focus of Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) cosmology to the near-infrared (NIR) is a promising way to significantly reduce the systematic errors, as the strategy minimizes our…
The High Cadence Transient Survey (HiTS) - I. Survey design and supernova shock breakout constraints
Francisco Förster, Juan C. Maureira, Jaime San Martín +19
We present the first results of the High cadence Transient Survey (HiTS), a survey whose objective is to detect and follow up optical transients with characteristic timescales from…
The Rise-Time of Type II Supernovae
Santiago Gonzalez-Gaitan, N. Tominaga, J. Molina +14
We investigate the early-time light-curves of a large sample of 223 type II supernovae (SNe) from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the Supernova Legacy Survey. Having a cadence of…
SN 2009N: Linking normal and subluminous type II-P SNe
K. Takáts, M. L. Pumo, N. Elias-Rosa +31
We present ultraviolet, optical, near-infrared photometry and spectroscopy of SN 2009N in NGC 4487. This object is a type II-P supernova with spectra resembling those of subluminou…
On the Lira law and the nature of extinction towards Type Ia Supernovae
Francisco Förster, Santiago González-Gaitán, Gastón Folatelli +1
We have studied the relation between the color evolution of Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) from maximum light to the Lira law regime and the presence of narrow absorption features. Ba…
Evidence for asymmetric distribution of circumstellar material around Type Ia Supernovae
Francisco Förster, Santiago González-Gaitán, Joseph Anderson +5
We study the properties of low-velocity material in the line of sight towards nearby Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) that have measured late phase nebular velocity shifts (v_neb), thou…
SN 2009bb: a Peculiar Broad-Lined Type Ic Supernova
Giuliano Pignata, Maximilian Stritzinger, Alicia Soderberg +23
Ultraviolet, optical, and near-infrared photometry and optical spectroscopy of the broad-lined Type Ic supernova (SN) 2009bb are presented, following the flux evolution from -10 to…
Simplified Hydrostatic Carbon Burning in White Dwarf Interiors
Francisco Förster, Pierre Lesaffre, Philipp Podsiadlowski
We introduce two simplified nuclear networks that can be used in hydrostatic carbon burning reactions occurring in white dwarf interiors. They model the relevant nuclear reactions…
