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 gas turbulence in planetary nebulae: quantification and multi-D maps from long-slit, wide-spectral range echellogram

F. Sabbadin, M. Turatto, S. Benetti +2

This methodological paper is part of a short series dedicated to the long-standing astronomical problem of de-projecting the bi-dimensional, apparent morphology of a three-dimensio…

GALEX Spectroscopy of SN 2005ay suggests a UV spectral uniformity among type II-P supernovae

A. Gal-Yam, F. Bufano, T. Barlow +24

We present the first results from our GALEX program designed to obtain ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy of nearby core-collapse supernovae (SNe). Our first target, SN 2005ay in the ne…

Optical and IR observations of SN 2002dj: some possible common properties of fast expanding SNe Ia

G. Pignata, S. Benetti, P. A. Mazzali +17

As part of the European Supernova Collaboration we obtained extensive photometry and spectroscopy of the type Ia SN 2002dj covering epochs from 11 days before to nearly two years a…

ESC Supernova spectroscopy of non-ESC targets

A. H. Harutyunyan, P. Pfahler, A. Pastorello +12

We present the spectra of 36 Supernovae (SNe) of various types, obtained by the European Supernova Collaboration. Because of the spectral classification and the phase determination…

Massive stars exploding in a He-rich circumstellar medium. I. Type Ibn (SN 2006jc-like) events

A. Pastorello, S. Mattila, L. Zampieri +26

We present new spectroscopic and photometric data of the type Ibn supernovae 2006jc, 2000er and 2002ao. We discuss the general properties of this recently proposed supernova family…
