Spectropolarimetry of superluminous supernovae: insight into their geometry
C. Inserra, M. Bulla, S. A. Sim +1
We present the first spectropolarimetric observations of a hydrogen-free superluminous supernova at z=0.1136, namely SN 2015bn. The transient shows significant polarization at both…

Predicting polarization signatures for double-detonation and delayed-detonation models of Type Ia supernovae
M. Bulla, S. A. Sim, M. Kromer +8
Calculations of synthetic spectropolarimetry are one means to test multi-dimensional explosion models for Type Ia supernovae. In a recent paper, we demonstrated that the violent me…
