The first Hubble diagram and cosmological constraints using superluminous supernova
C. Inserra, M. Sullivan, C. R. Angus +88
We present the first Hubble diagram of superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) out to a redshift of two, together with constraints on the matter density, , and the dark energy…
Euclid: Superluminous supernovae in the Deep Survey
C. Inserra, R. C. Nichol, D. Scovacricchi +31
In the last decade, astronomers have found a new type of supernova called `superluminous supernovae' (SLSNe) due to their high peak luminosity and long light-curves. These hydrogen…
The superluminous supernova PS1-11ap: bridging the gap between low and high redshift
M. McCrum, S. J. Smartt, R. Kotak +37
We present optical photometric and spectroscopic coverage of the superluminous supernova (SLSN) PS1-11ap, discovered with the Pan-STARRS1 Medium Deep Survey at z = 0.524. This intr…
Slowly fading super-luminous supernovae that are not pair-instability explosions
M. Nicholl, S. J. Smartt, A. Jerkstrand +57
Super-luminous supernovae that radiate more than 10^44 ergs per second at their peak luminosity have recently been discovered in faint galaxies at redshifts of 0.1-4. Some evolve s…
The first month of evolution of the slow rising type II-P SN 2013ej in M74
S. Valenti, D. Sand, A. Pastorello +14
We present early photometric and spectroscopic observations of SN 2013ej, a bright type IIP supernova in M74. SN 2013ej is one of the closest SNe ever discovered. The available arc…
On the progenitor of the Type IIP SN 2013ej in M74
Morgan Fraser, Justyn R. Maund, Stephen J. Smartt +10
We use natural seeing imaging of SN 2013ej in M74 to identify a progenitor candidate in archival {\it Hubble Space Telescope} + ACS images. We find a source coincident with the SN…
