Metallicity Effects in NLTE Model Atmospheres of Type IA Supernovae

TL;DR: In this article, a grid of photospheric phase atmospheres of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) with metallicities from ten times to one thirtieth the solar metallicity in the C+O layer of the deflagration model, W7, was calculated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Detailed Spectroscopic Analysis of SN 1987A: The Distance to the LMC using the SEAM method

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a hydrodynamical model to model the observed spectra from day 1 to day 81 using a broad baseline of detailed spectroscopic models and found a distance modulus mu = 18.5 +/- 0.2 using the SEAM method of determining distances to supernovae.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the early-time excess emission in hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the light curves of the hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe-I) PTF12dam and iPTF13dcc, discovered by the (intermediate) Palomar Transient Factory.
