The metamorphosis of Supernova SN2008D/XRF080109: a link between Supernovae and GRBs/Hypernovae
Paolo A. Mazzali, Stefano Valenti, Massimo Della Valle +38
The only supernovae (SNe) to have shown early gamma-ray or X-ray emission thus far are overenergetic, broad-lined Type Ic SNe (Hypernovae - HNe). Recently, SN 2008D shows several n…
The carbon-rich type Ic SN 2007gr: the photospheric phase
S. Valenti, N. Elias-Rosa, S. Taubenberger +20
The first two months of spectroscopic and photometric monitoring of the nearby type Ic SN 2007gr are presented. The very early discovery (less than 5 days after the explosion) and…
Field Camera Unit for WSO-UV: Phase A Study Report
I. Pagano, F. Bacciotti, L. Bedin +33
World Space Observatory UltraViolet (WSO-UV) is a multipurpose space observatory, made by a 170 cm aperture telescope, capable of UV high-resolution spectroscopy, long slit low-res…
Supernova Classes and Subclasses
M. Turatto, S. Benetti, A. Pastorello
The discovery of many objects with unprecedented, amazing observational characteristics caused the last decade to be the most prolific period for the supernova research. Many of th…
A giant outburst two years before the core-collapse of a massive star
A. Pastorello, S. J. Smartt, S. Mattila +32
The death of massive stars produces a variety of supernovae, which are linked to the structure of the exploding stars. The detection of several precursor stars of Type II supernova…
ESC observations of SN 2005cf. I. Photometric Evolution of a Normal Type Ia Supernova
A. Pastorello, S. Taubenberger, N. Elias-Rosa +20
We present early-time optical and near-infrared photometry of supernova (SN) 2005cf. The observations, spanning a period from about 12 days before to 3 months after maximum, have b…
