metadata for presently 36,000+ supernovae and related candidates. The catalog is freely …

The diversity of Type II supernova versus the similarity in their progenitors

S Valenti, DA Howell, MD Stritzinger… - Monthly Notices of …, 2016 - academic.oup.com
High-quality collections of Type II supernova (SN) light curves are scarce because they
evolve for hundreds of days, making follow-up observations time consuming and often …

Characterizing the V-band light-curves of hydrogen-rich type II supernovae

JP Anderson, S González-Gaitán… - The Astrophysical …, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
We present an analysis of the diversity of V-band light-curves of hydrogen-rich type II
supernovae. Analyzing a sample of 116 supernovae, several magnitude measurements are …

[KSIĄŻKA][B] Supernova explosions

D Branch, JC Wheeler - 2017 - Springer
JCW had long wanted to write a new monograph on supernovae. Despite an immense
explosion in the literature and many review articles, there had not been one since that of …

The death of massive stars–II. Observational constraints on the progenitors of Type Ibc supernovae

JJ Eldridge, M Fraser, SJ Smartt… - Monthly Notices of …, 2013 - academic.oup.com
The progenitors of many Type II core-collapse supernovae (SNe) have now been identified
directly on pre-discovery imaging. Here, we present an extensive search for the progenitors …

Type II supernova spectral diversity. I. Observations, sample characterization, and spectral line evolution

CP Gutiérrez, JP Anderson, M Hamuy… - The Astrophysical …, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
We present 888 visual-wavelength spectra of 122 nearby type II supernovae (SNe II)
obtained between 1986 and 2009, and ranging between 3 and 363 days post-explosion. In …

Type II-P supernova progenitor star initial masses and SN 2020jfo: direct detection, light-curve properties, nebular spectroscopy, and local environment

CD Kilpatrick, L Izzo, RO Bentley… - Monthly Notices of …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
We present optical, ultraviolet, and infrared data of the type II supernova (SN II) 2020jfo at
14.5 Mpc. This wealth of multiwavelength data allows us to compare different metrics …

Low luminosity Type II supernovae–II. Pointing towards moderate mass precursors

S Spiro, A Pastorello, ML Pumo… - Monthly Notices of …, 2014 - academic.oup.com
We present new data for five underluminous Type II-plateau supernovae (SNe IIP), namely
SN 1999gn, SN 2002gd, SN 2003Z, SN 2004eg and SN 2006ov. This new sample of low …

A meta-analysis of core-collapse supernova 56Ni masses

JP Anderson - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2019 - aanda.org
Context. A fundamental property determining the transient behaviour of core-collapse
supernovae (CC SNe) is the amount of radioactive 56 Ni synthesised in the explosion. Using …

The rise-time of Type II supernovae

S González-Gaitán, N Tominaga… - Monthly Notices of …, 2015 - academic.oup.com
We investigate the early-time light curves of a large sample of 223 Type II supernovae (SNe
II) from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the Supernova Legacy Survey. Having a cadence …
