Spectral Diversity of Type Ia Supernovae
We use published spectroscopic and photometric data for 8 Type Ia supernovae to construct a dispersion spectrum for this class of object, showing their diversity over the wavelength range 3700 Å to 7100 Å. We find that the B and V bands are the spectral regions with the least dispersion, while the U band below 4100Å is more diverse. Some spectral features such as the Si line at 6150Å are also h...
متن کاملK-corrections and spectral templates of Type Ia supernovae
With the advent of large dedicated Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) surveys, Kcorrections of SNe Ia and their uncertainties have become especially important in the determination of cosmological parameters. While K-corrections are largely driven by SN Ia broad-band colors, it is shown here that the diversity in spectral features of SNe Ia can also be important. For an individual observation, the statis...
متن کاملType Ia Supernovae
Type Ia Supernovae are in many aspects still enigmatic objects. Their observational and theoretical exploration is in full swing, but we still have plenty to learn about these explosions. Recent years have already witnessed a bonanza of supernova observations. The increased samples from dedicated searches have allowed the statistical investigation of Type Ia Supernovae as a class. The observati...
متن کاملModels for High Velocity Features in Type Ia Supernovae
Spectral synthesis in 3-dimensional (3D) space for the earliest spectra of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) is presented. In particular, the high velocity absorption features that are commonly seen at the earliest epochs (∼ 10 days before maximum light) are investigated by means of a 3D Monte Carlo spectral synthesis code. The increasing number of early spectra available allows statistical study of ...
متن کاملDust around Type Ia supernovae
An explanation is given of the low value of Rλ ≡ Aλ/E(B − V ), the ratio of absolute to selective extinction deduced from Type Ia supernova observations. The idea involves scattering by dust clouds located in the circumstellar environment, or at the highest velocity shells of the supernova ejecta. The scattered light tends to reduce the effective Rλ in the optical, but has an opposite effect in...
