Early and late time VLT spectroscopy of SN 2001 el − progenitor constraints for a type Ia supernova ⋆
We present early time high-resolution (VLT/UVES) and late time low-resolution (VLT/FORS) optical spectra of the normal type Ia supernova, SN 2001el. The high-resolution spectra were obtained 9 and 2 days before (B-band) maximum light. This was in order to allow the detection of narrow hydrogen and/or helium emission lines from the circumstellar medium of the supernova. No such lines were detect...
متن کاملThe Optical Spectrum of the Sn 1006 Supernova Remnant Revisited
We present the deepest optical spectrum acquired to date of Balmer-dominated shocks in the NW rim of SN 1006. We detect the broad and narrow components of Hα, Hβ and Hγ and report the first detection of the He I λ 6678 emission line in this supernova remnant. We may have detected, at the 1.5σ level, faint He II λ4686 emission. We measure a full width half maximum of 2290± 80 km s in the broad c...
متن کاملType Ia supernova SN 2003 du : optical observations
U BV RI photometry and optical spectra of type Ia supernova SN 2003du obtained at the Indian Astronomical Observatory for nearly a year since discovery are presented. The apparent magnitude at maximum was B = 13.53 ± 0.02 mag, and the colour (B − V) = −0.08 ± 0.03 mag. The luminosity decline rate, ∆m15(B) = 1.04 ± 0.04 mag indicates an absolute B magnitude at maximum of M max B = −19.34 ± 0.3 m...
متن کاملEvidence for Asphericity in the Type IIn Supernova 1998S
We present optical spectropolarimetry obtained at the Keck-II 10-m telescope on 1998 March 7 UT along with total flux spectra spanning the first 494 days after discovery (1998 March 2 UT) of the peculiar type IIn supernova (SN) 1998S. The SN is found to exhibit a high degree of linear polarization, implying significant asphericity for its continuum-scattering environment. Prior to removal of th...
متن کاملOptical Spectroscopy of the Somewhat Peculiar Type Iib Supernova 2001ig
Here we present previously unpublished optical spectra of supernova (SN) 2001ig, a Type IIb SN, from about a week after explosion until nearly one year later. The earliest spectrum consists of only a few broad absorption features, but soon more common Type II SN features including hydrogen P-Cygni profiles and helium absorption become apparent. At later times, as the H features fade and the He ...
