Supernova 2013fc in a circumnuclear ring of a luminous infrared galaxy: the big brother of SN 1998S
T. Kangas, S. Mattila, E. Kankare +30
We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of SN 2013fc, a bright type II supernova (SN) in a circumnuclear star-forming ring in the luminous infrared galaxy ESO 154-G01…
On type IIn/Ia-CSM supernovae as exemplified by SN 2012ca
C. Inserra, M. Fraser, S. J. Smartt +15
We present the complete set of ultra-violet, optical and near-infrared photometry and spectroscopy for SN 2012ca, covering the period from 6~days prior to maximum light, until 531…
LSQ14bdq: A Type Ic super-luminous supernova with a double-peaked light curve
M. Nicholl, S. J. Smartt, A. Jerkstrand +28
We present data for LSQ14bdq, a hydrogen-poor super-luminous supernova (SLSN) discovered by the La Silla QUEST survey and classified by the Public ESO Spectroscopic Survey of Trans…
On the diversity of super-luminous supernovae: ejected mass as the dominant factor
M. Nicholl, S. J. Smartt, A. Jerkstrand +37
We assemble a sample of 24 hydrogen-poor super-luminous supernovae (SLSNe). Parameterizing the light curve shape through rise and decline timescales shows that the two are highly c…
Massive stars exploding in a He-rich circumstellar medium. VI. Observations of two distant Type Ibn supernova candidates discovered by La Silla-QUEST
A. Pastorello, E. Hadjiyska, D. Rabinowitz +31
We present optical observations of the peculiar stripped-envelope supernovae (SNe) LSQ12btw and LSQ13ccw discovered by the La Silla-QUEST survey. LSQ12btw reaches an absolute peak…
A comparative study of Type II-P and II-L supernova rise times as exemplified by the case of LSQ13cuw
E. E. E. Gall, J. Polshaw, R. Kotak +17
We report on our findings based on the analysis of observations of the Type II-L supernova LSQ13cuw within the framework of currently accepted physical predictions of core-collapse…
