H- emission in the nebular spectrum of the Type Ia supernova ASASSN-18tb

Juna A. Kollmeier, Ping Chen, Subo Dong +6

As part of the 100IAS survey, a program aimed to obtain nebular-phase spectra for a volume-limited and homogeneous sample of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), we observed ASASSN-18tb (S…
