Carnegie Supernova Project II: The Slowest Rising Type Ia Supernova LSQ14fmg and Clues to the Origin of Super-Chandrasekhar/03fg-like Events

TL;DR: Hsiao et al. as discussed by the authors showed that the optical spectrum is typical of a super-Chandrasekhar-like SN Ia, but the light curves are unlike those of any SNe Ia observed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inferring the Presence of Tides in Detached White Dwarf Binaries

TL;DR: In this article, the first and second derivative of the orbital period and braking index of a binary was analyzed to infer the degree of tidal locking on the binary, and the deviations between a binary evolving under the influence of only GW emission and a binary that is also experiencing some degree of locking.
Journal ArticleDOI

Shock Cooling Emission from Extended Material Revisited

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an analytic model for SCE that can be used to fit these observations and learn more about the origin of these events, which is compared with numerical simulations to assess its validity and limitations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Carnegie Supernova Project-II: Using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy to determine the location of the outer $^{56}$Ni in Type Ia Supernovae

TL;DR: In this article, the blue-edge velocity of the prominent Fe/Co/Ni-peak $H$-band emission feature is quantitatively measured, which can be used in combination with traditional observational diagnostics to provide a new avenue to robustly distinguish between leading SNe Ia explosion models.
