Aspherical Core-Collapse Supernovae in Red Supergiants Powered by Nonrelativistic Jets
Sean M. Couch, J. Craig Wheeler, Milos Milosavljevic
We explore the observational characteristics of jet-driven supernovae by simulating bipolar-jet-driven explosions in a red supergiant progenitor. We present results of four models…
Spectropolarimetry of Supernovae
Lifan Wang, J. Craig Wheeler
Overwhelming evidence has accumulated in recent years that supernova explosions are intrinsically 3-dimensional phenomena with significant departures from spherical symmetry. We re…
The effect of progenitor age and metallicity on luminosity and 56Ni yield in Type Ia supernovae
D. A. Howell, M. Sullivan, E. F. Brown +23
Timmes, Brown & Truran found that metallicity variations could theoretically account for a 25% variation in the mass of 56Ni synthesized in Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), and thus ac…
Late-Time HST Photometry of SN 1994I: Hints of Positron Annihilation Energy Deposition
Alejandro Clocchiatti, J. Craig Wheeler, Robert P. Kirshner +12
We present multicolor Hubble Space Telescope (HST) WFPC2 broadband observations of the Type Ic SN 1994I obtained approximately 280 days after maximum light. We measure the brightne…
A Measurement of the Rate of type-Ia Supernovae at Redshift 0.1 from the First Season of the SDSS-II Supernova Survey
Benjamin Dilday, R. Kessler, J. A. Frieman +50
We present a measurement of the rate of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) from the first of three seasons of data from the SDSS-II Supernova Survey. For this measurement, we include 17 S…
