Cosmic evolution and metal aversion in super-luminous supernova host galaxies

S. Schulze, T. Krühler, G. Leloudas +21

The SUperluminous Supernova Host galaxIES (SUSHIES) survey aims to provide strong new constraints on the progenitors of superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) by understanding the relati…

SN 2015bh: NGC 2770's 4th supernova or a luminous blue variable on its way to a Wolf-Rayet star?

C. C. Thöne, A. de Ugarte Postigo, G. Leloudas +13

Very massive stars in the final phases of their lives often show unpredictable outbursts that can mimic supernovae, so-called, "SN impostors", but the distinction is not always str…
