The morphology of the ejecta in Supernova 1987A: a study over time and wavelength
Josefin Larsson, Claes Fransson, Karina Kjaer +9
We present a study of the morphology of the ejecta in Supernova 1987A based on images and spectra from the HST as well as integral field spectroscopy from VLT/SINFONI. The HST obse…
Type Iax Supernovae: A New Class of Stellar Explosion
Ryan J. Foley, P. J. Challis, R. Chornock +19
We describe observed properties of the Type Iax class of supernovae (SNe Iax), consisting of SNe observationally similar to its prototypical member, SN 2002cx. The class currently…
Ultra-Luminous Supernovae as a New Probe of the Interstellar Medium in Distant Galaxies
E. Berger, R. Chornock, R. Lunnan +27
We present the Pan-STARRS1 discovery and light curves, and follow-up MMT and Gemini spectroscopy of an ultra-luminous supernova (ULSN; dubbed PS1-11bam) at a redshift of z=1.566 wi…
