S. J. Smartt, S. Valenti, M. Fraser +99
The Public European Southern Observatory Spectroscopic Survey of Transient Objects (PESSTO) began as a public spectroscopic survey in April 2012. We describe the data reduction str…
Defining Photometric Peculiar Type Ia Supernovae
S. Gonzalez-Gaitan, E. Y. Hsiao, G. Pignata +9
We present a new photometric identification technique for SN 1991bg-like type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), i.e. objects with light-curve characteristics such as later primary maxima and…
Characterizing the V-band light-curves of hydrogen-rich type II supernovae
Joseph P. Anderson, Santiago González-Gaitán, Mario Hamuy +26
We present an analysis of the diversity of V-band light-curves of hydrogen-rich type II supernovae. Analyzing a sample of 116 supernovae, several magnitude measurements are defined…
SN2011hs: a Fast and Faint Type IIb Supernova from a Supergiant Progenitor
F. Bufano, G. Pignata, M. Bersten +33
Observations spanning a large wavelength range, from X-ray to radio, of the Type IIb supernova 2011hs are presented, covering its evolution during the first year after explosion. T…
