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.
Book ChapterDOI
Type ia supernovae as extragalactic distance indicators
TL;DR: In this article, the authors use distance independent observables (DIOs) to define subsets of Type Ia supernovae that are nearly standard candles or to correct SNIa absolute magnitudes to make them nearly homogeneous (standardized candles).
Journal ArticleDOI
PTF11kx: A Type Ia Supernova with Hydrogen Emission Persisting After 3.5 Years
Melissa L. Graham,Chelsea E. Harris,Ori D. Fox,Peter Nugent,Daniel Kasen,Jeffrey M. Silverman,Alexei V. Filippenko +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an optical spectrum at $1342$ days after peak from Keck Observatory, in which the broad component of H$\alpha$ emission persists with a similar profile as in early-time observations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Erratum:``Low Hubble Constant from the Physics of Type Ia Supernovae'' [Phys. Rev. Lett. 75, 394 (1995)]
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the sensitivity of features to variations in progenitor metallicity, the outer density profile, and the distribution of radioactive nickel was studied for Branch-normal Type Ia supernovae.
