Type II supernova energetics and comparison of light curves to shock-cooling models
Adam Rubin, Avishay Gal-Yam, Annalisa De Cia +37
During the first few days after explosion, Type II supernovae (SNe) are dominated by relatively simple physics. Theoretical predictions regarding early-time SN light curves in the…
Extensive Spectroscopy and Photometry of the Type IIP Supernova 2013ej
G. Dhungana, R. Kehoe, J. Vinko +32
We present extensive optical (, , and open CCD) and near-infrared () photometry for the very nearby Type IIP SN ~2013ej extending from +1 to +461 days after…
Optical and near-infrared observations of SN 2013dx associated with GRB 130702A
V. L. Toy, S. B. Cenko, J. M. Silverman +33
We present optical and near-infrared light curves and optical spectra of SN 2013dx, associated with the nearby (redshift 0.145) gamma-ray burst GRB 130702A. The prompt isotropic ga…
Spectropolarimetry of SN 2011dh in M51: geometric insights on a Type IIb supernova progenitor and explosion
Jon C. Mauerhan, G. Grant Williams, Douglas C. Leonard +11
We present seven epochs of spectropolarimetry of the Type IIb supernova (SN) 2011dh in M51, spanning 86 days of its evolution. The first epoch was obtained 9 days after the explosi…
Nebular spectra and abundance tomography of the type Ia supernova SN 2011fe: a normal SN Ia with a stable Fe core
P. A. Mazzali, M. Sullivan, A. V. Filippenko +10
A series of optical and one near-infrared nebular spectra covering the first year of the Type Ia supernova SN 2011fe are presented and modelled. The density profile that proved bes…
500 Days of SN 2013dy: spectra and photometry from the ultraviolet to the infrared
Y. -C. Pan, R. J. Foley, M. Kromer +23
SN 2013dy is a Type Ia supernova for which we have compiled an extraordinary dataset spanning from 0.1 to ~ 500 days after explosion. We present 10 epochs of ultraviolet (UV) throu…
The Lick AGN Monitoring Project 2011: Spectroscopic Campaign and Emission-Line Light Curves
A. J. Barth, V. N. Bennert, G. Canalizo +27
In the Spring of 2011 we carried out a 2.5 month reverberation mapping campaign using the 3 m Shane telescope at Lick Observatory, monitoring 15 low-redshift Seyfert 1 galaxies. Th…
Constraining the Progenitor Companion of the Nearby Type Ia SN 2011fe with a Nebular Spectrum at +981 Days
Melissa L. Graham, Peter E. Nugent, Mark Sullivan +5
We present an optical nebular spectrum of the nearby Type Ia supernova 2011fe, obtained 981 days after explosion. SN 2011fe exhibits little evolution since the +593 day optical spe…
PTF11iqb: Cool supergiant mass loss that bridges the gap between Type IIn and normal supernovae
Nathan Smith, Jon C. Mauerhan, S. Bradley Cenko +16
PTF11iqb was initially classified as a TypeIIn event caught very early after explosion. It showed narrow Wolf-Rayet (WR) spectral features on day 2, but the narrow emission weakene…
