Type II supernova energetics and comparison of light curves to shock-cooling models
Adam Rubin, Avishay Gal-Yam, Annalisa De Cia +37
During the first few days after explosion, Type II supernovae (SNe) are dominated by relatively simple physics. Theoretical predictions regarding early-time SN light curves in the…
Space Telescope and Optical Reverberation Mapping Project. III. Optical Continuum Emission and Broad-Band Time Delays in NGC 5548
M. M. Fausnaugh, K. D. Denney, A. J. Barth +94
We present ground-based optical photometric monitoring data for NGC 5548, part of an extended multi-wavelength reverberation mapping campaign. The light curves have nearly daily ca…
Spectropolarimetry of SN 2011dh in M51: geometric insights on a Type IIb supernova progenitor and explosion
Jon C. Mauerhan, G. Grant Williams, Douglas C. Leonard +11
We present seven epochs of spectropolarimetry of the Type IIb supernova (SN) 2011dh in M51, spanning 86 days of its evolution. The first epoch was obtained 9 days after the explosi…
PTF11iqb: Cool supergiant mass loss that bridges the gap between Type IIn and normal supernovae
Nathan Smith, Jon C. Mauerhan, S. Bradley Cenko +16
PTF11iqb was initially classified as a TypeIIn event caught very early after explosion. It showed narrow Wolf-Rayet (WR) spectral features on day 2, but the narrow emission weakene…
