A hot and fast ultra-stripped supernova that likely formed a compact neutron star binary
K. De, M. M. Kasliwal, E. O. Ofek +24
Compact neutron star binary systems are produced from binary massive stars through stellar evolution involving up to two supernova explosions. The final stages in the formation of…
A UV Resonance Line Echo from a Shell Around a Hydrogen-Poor Superluminous Supernova
R. Lunnan, C. Fransson, P. M. Vreeswijk +21
Hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSN-I) are a class of rare and energetic explosions discovered in untargeted transient surveys in the past decade. The progenitor stars and…
Late-time observations of the extraordinary Type II supernova iPTF14hls
J. Sollerman, F. Taddia, I. Arcavi +22
We study iPTF14hls, a luminous and extraordinary long-lived Type II supernova, which lately has attracted much attention and disparate interpretation. We present new optical photom…
A surge of light at the birth of a supernova
M. C. Bersten, G. Folatelli, F. García +18
It is difficult to establish the properties of massive stars that explode as supernovae. The electromagnetic emission during the first minutes to hours after the emergence of the s…
