This Letter presents wide-field optical and near-IR (UBVRIHαK') images of the galaxy M74 that were taken between 0.6 and 8.3 yr before the discovery of the Type...
Optical and infrared photometry of the Type IIn SN 1998S: days 11-146
We present contemporaneous optical and infrared (IR) photometric observations of the Type IIn SN 1998S covering the period between 11 and 146d after discovery...
Optical observations of GRB 060218/SN 2006aj and its host galaxy
The supernova SN 2006aj associated with GRB 060218 is the second-closest GRB-SN observed to date (z=0.033) and is the clearest example of a SN associated with a...
Optical polarimetric monitoring of the type II-plateau SN 2005af
Aims.Core-collapse supernovae may show significant polarization that implies non-spherically symmetric explosions. We observed the type II-plateau SN 2005af...
We report R band imaging polarimetry of SN 2004bv in NGC 6907 on June 19.299 (UT middle of observation), i.e., two weeks after maximum. We have obtained [ 0.11...
OSIRIS Hα imaging of the NGC 2770 supernova factory and its satellite NGC 2770B
In the last 12 years NGC 2770 hosted 2 standard supernovae (SNe) and one X-ray transient event (SN2008D) similar to a Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB). Given the close (27...
Pair production of helicity-flipped neutrinos in supernovae
The emissivity was calculated for the pair production of helicity-flipped neutrinos, in a way that can be used in supernova calculations. Also presented are...
Panning for gold, but finding helium: Discovery of the ultra-stripped supernova SN 2019wxt from gravitational-wave follow-up observations
We present the results from multi-wavelength observations of a transient discovered during an intensive follow-up campaign of S191213g, a gravitational wave (GW...
Part 1: A supernova search in starburst galaxies & Part 2: Starbursts and EMIR project
With the aim of testing the relation between supernova (SN) rate and star formation rate, we conducted a SN search in a sample of local starburst galaxies (SBs)...
