Spectropolarimetry of SN 2001el in NGC 1448: Asphericity of a normal type Ia supernova

TL;DR: In this article, a double-troughed absorption feature seen around 800 nm (FWHM about 22 nm) was identified for Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2001el with the ESO Very Large Telescope Melipal +FORS1 at five epochs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of the Flux and Polarization Spectra of the Type Ia Supernova SN 2001el: Exploring the Geometry of the High-Velocity Ejecta

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a three-dimensional synthetic polarization spectra to constrain the ejecta geometry and generate polarization profiles for several parameterized configurations of the supernova ejecta.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spectroscopic observations and analysis of the peculiar SN 1999aa

G. Garavini, +66 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an extensive time series of spectroscopic data of the peculiar SN 1999aa in NGC 2595 is presented, including 25 optical spectra between -11 and +58 days with respect to B-band maximum light, providing an unusually complete time history.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reading the Spectra of the Most Peculiar Type Ia Supernova 2002cx

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the supernova synthetic-spectrum code SYNOW to study line identifications in SN 2002cx and found that the maximum-light spectra appeared to contain weak features of Si ii, S ii, Si iii, and Ca ii, which strengthened the connection with SN 1991T-like events.
Journal ArticleDOI

Could there be a hole in type Ia supernovae

TL;DR: In this article, the authors use multi-dimensional Monte Carlo radiative transfer calculations to explore the observable consequences of an ejecta-hole asymmetry in Type Ia supernovae, and calculate the variation of the spectrum, luminosity and polarization with viewing angle for the aspherical supernova near maximum light.
