On the nature of rapidly fading Type II supernovae

Takashi J. Moriya, Maria V. Pruzhinskaya, Mattias Ergon +1

It has been suggested that Type II supernovae with rapidly fading light curves (a.k.a. Type IIL supernovae) are explosions of progenitors with low-mass hydrogen-rich envelopes whic…

Did the progenitor of SN2011dh have a binary companion?

J. R. Maund, I. Arcavi, M. Ergon +6

We present late-time Hubble Space Telescope (HST) ultraviolet (UV) and optical observations of the site of SN 2011dh in the galaxy M51, ~1164 days post-explosion. At the SN locatio…

SN 2011fu: A type IIb Supernova with a luminous double-peaked light curve

A. Morales-Garoffolo, N. Elias-Rosa, M. Bersten +17

We present optical and near infrared observations of the type IIb supernova (SN) 2011fu from a few days to d after explosion. The SN presents a double-peaked light curve…

Metallicity at the explosion sites of interacting transients

F. Taddia, J. Sollerman, C. Fremling +8

Context. Some circumstellar-interacting (CSI) supernovae (SNe) are produced by the explosions of massive stars that have lost mass shortly before the SN explosion. There is evidenc…

Massive stars exploding in a He-rich circumstellar medium. IV. Transitional Type Ibn Supernovae

A. Pastorello, S. Benetti, P. J. Brown +30

We present ultraviolet, optical and near-infrared data of the Type Ibn supernovae (SNe) 2010al and 2011hw. SN 2010al reaches an absolute magnitude at peak of M(R) = -18.86 +- 0.21.…
