PESSTO : survey description and products from the first data release by the Public ESO Spectroscopic Survey of Transient Objects
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…
Analysis of blue-shifted emission peaks in type II supernovae
J. P. Anderson, L. Dessart, C. P. Gutierrez +10
In classical P-Cygni profiles, theory predicts emission to peak at zero rest velocity. However, supernova spectra exhibit emission that is generally blue shifted. While this charac…
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…
