Spectroscopic confirmation of high-redshift supernovae with the ESO VLT

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented VLT FORS1 and FORS2 spectra of 39 candidate high-redshift supernovae that were discovered as part of a cosmological study using type Ia supernova (SNe Ia) over a wide range of redshifts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Type Ia supernova spectral features in the context of their host galaxy properties

TL;DR: In this article, spectroscopic measurements of 122 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) with z 3 x 10(9) M-circle dot were analyzed, and it was shown that these highest velocity SNE Ia explode in the inner regions of their host galaxies, similar to the study of Wang et al.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence for Late-stage Eruptive Mass Loss in the Progenitor to SN2018gep, a Broad-lined Ic Supernova: Pre-explosion Emission and a Rapidly Rising Luminous Transient

TL;DR: Ho et al. as discussed by the authors presented detailed observations of ZTF18abukavn (SN2018gep), which was discovered in high-cadence data from the Zwicky Transient Facility as a rapidly rising (1.4 ± 0.1 mag hr-1) and luminous (Mg, peak = -20 mag) transient.
