The superluminous supernova PS1-11ap: bridging the gap between low and high redshift
M. McCrum, S. J. Smartt, R. Kotak +37
We present optical photometric and spectroscopic coverage of the superluminous supernova (SLSN) PS1-11ap, discovered with the Pan-STARRS1 Medium Deep Survey at z = 0.524. This intr…
Slowly fading super-luminous supernovae that are not pair-instability explosions
M. Nicholl, S. J. Smartt, A. Jerkstrand +57
Super-luminous supernovae that radiate more than 10^44 ergs per second at their peak luminosity have recently been discovered in faint galaxies at redshifts of 0.1-4. Some evolve s…
PS1-12sk is a Peculiar Supernova From a He-rich Progenitor System in a Brightest Cluster Galaxy Environment
N. E. Sanders, A. M. Soderberg, R. J. Foley +29
We report on our discovery and observations of the Pan-STARRS1 supernova (SN) PS1-12sk, a transient with properties that indicate atypical star formation in its host galaxy cluster…
