Constraints on Association of Single-pulse Gamma-ray Bursts and Supernovae [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
We explore the hypothesis, similar to one recently suggested by Bloom and colleagues, that some nearby supernovae are associated with smooth, single-pulse gamma-ray bursts, possibly having no emission above ~ 300 keV.

Circumstellar Emission from Type Ib and Ic Supernovae [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2006
The presumed Wolf-Rayet star progenitors of Type Ib/c supernovae have fast, low density winds and the shock waves generated by the supernova interaction with the wind are not expected to be radiative at typical times of observation. The injected energy spectrum of radio emitting electrons typically has an observed index p=3, which is suggestive of ...

A Central Excess of Stripped-Envelope Supernovae within Disturbed Galaxies

open access: yes, 2012
This paper presents an analysis of core-collapse supernova distributions in isolated and interacting host galaxies, paying close attention to the selection effects involved in conducting host galaxy supernova studies.

WHY NS AND BH MASS DISTRIBUTION IS BIMODAL?

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2017
The observed mass distribution for the compact remnants of massive stars (neutron stars and black holes) and its relationship to possible mechanisms for the ejection of the envelopes of type II and Ib/c supernovae is analyzed.

Constraints from $^{26}$Al Measurements on the Galaxy's Recent Global Star Formation Rate and Core Collapse Supernovae Rate [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Gamma-rays from the decay of $^{26}$Al offer a stringent constraint on the Galaxy's global star formation rate over the past million years, supplementing other methods for quantifying the recent Galactic star formation rate, such as equivalent widths of ...

Inhomogeneities and the modeling of radio supernovae

open access: yes, 2017
Observations of radio supernovae often exhibit characteristics not readily accounted for by a homogeneous, spherically symmetric synchrotron model; e.g., flat-topped spectra/lightcurves.

Helium Emission in the Type Ic SN 1999cq [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We present the first unambiguous detection of helium emission lines in spectra of Type Ic supernovae (SNe Ic). The presence of He I lines, with full width at half maximum ~ 2000 km/s, and the distinct absence of any other intermediate-width emission (e.g.

SN 2014C: A Metamorphic Supernova Exploded in the Intricate and Hydrogen-rich Surroundings

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of supernova (SN) SN 2014C, primarily emphasizing the initial month after the explosion at approximately daily intervals.

Stellar Properties of Observed Stars Stripped in Binaries in the Magellanic Clouds

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Massive stars (∼8–25 M _⊙ ) stripped of their hydrogen-rich envelopes via binary interaction are thought to be the main progenitors for merging neutron stars and stripped-envelope supernovae.

On the multiple supernova population of Arp 299: constraints on progenitor properties and host galaxy star formation characteristics

open access: yes, 2011
Throughout the last 20 years 7 supernovae (SNe) have been discovered within Arp 299. One of these is unclassified, leaving 6 core-collapse events; 2 type II, 2 type Ib, a type IIb and one object of indistinct type; Ib/IIb. We analyse the relative numbers
