SN 2017gci: a nearby Type I Superluminous Supernova with a bumpy tail

Achille Fiore, Ting-Wan Chen, Anders Jerkstrand +26

We present and discuss the optical spectro-photometric observations of the nearby (z=0.087) Type I superluminous supernova (SLSN I) SN 2017gci, whose peak K-corrected absolute magn…

An extremely energetic supernova from a very massive star in a dense medium

Matt Nicholl, Peter K. Blanchard, Edo Berger +14

The interaction of a supernova with a circumstellar medium (CSM) can dramatically increase the emitted luminosity by converting kinetic energy to thermal energy. In 'superluminous'…
