TL;DR: Observations of supernova SN 2007bi are reported, a luminous, slowly evolving object located within a dwarf galaxy, and it is shown that >3 of radioactive 56Ni was synthesized during the explosion and that the observations are well fitted by models of pair-instability supernovae.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metzger,Anthony L. Piro,Eliot Quataert,M. Kiewe,Dovi Poznanski,Dovi Poznanski +31 more
TL;DR: A faint type Ib supernova is reported in the halo of the nearby isolated galaxy, NGC 1032, and it is concluded that it arises from a low-mass, old progenitor, likely to have been a helium-accreting white dwarf in a binary.
Journal ArticleDOI
The First Systematic Study of Type Ibc Supernova Multi-band Light Curves
Maria R. Drout,Alicia M. Soderberg,Avishay Gal-Yam,S. B. Cenko,D. B. Fox,Douglas C. Leonard,David J. Sand,David J. Sand,Dae-Sik Moon,Iair Arcavi,Yoav Green +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented detailed optical photometry for 25 Type Ibc supernovae within d\approx150 Mpc obtained with the robotic Palomar 60-inch telescope in 2004-2007.
