    • LSQ13fn: A type II-Plateau supernova with a possibly low metallicity progenitor that breaks the standardised ... 
      Polshaw, J.; Kotak, R.; Dessart, L.; Fraser, M.; Gal Yam, Avishay; Inserra, C.; Sim, S. A.; Smartt, S. J.; Sollerman, J.; Baltay, C.; Rabinowitz, D.; Benetti, S.; Botticella, M. T.; Campbell, H.; Chen, T. W.; Galbany, Lluis; McKinnon, R.; Nicholl, M.; Smith, K. W.; Sullivan, M.; Takáts, K.; Valenti, S.; Young, D. R. (ESO, 2016)
      We present optical imaging and spectroscopy of supernova (SN) LSQ13fn, a type II supernova with several hitherto-unseen properties. Although it initially showed strong symmetric spectral emission features attributable to ...

      We present observations of SN 2015bn (=PS15ae = CSS141223-113342+004332 = MLS150211-113342+004333), a Type I superluminous supernova (SLSN) at redshift z = 0.1136. As well as being one of the closest SLSNe I yet discovered, ...
    • The type Iax supernova, SN 2015H A white dwarf deflagration candidate 
      Magee, M. R.; Kotak, R.; Sim, S. A.; Kromer, M.; Rabinowitz, D.; Smartt, S. J.; Baltay, C.; Campbell, H. C.; Chen, T. W.; Fink, M.; Gal Yam, Avishay; Galbany, Lluis; Hillebrandt, W.; Inserra, C.; Kankare, E.; Le Guillou, L.; Lyman, J. D.; Maguire, K.; Pakmor, R.; Ropke, F. K.; Ruiter, A. J.; Seitenzahl, I. R.; Sullivan, M.; Valenti, S.; Young, D. R. (EDP Sciences, 2016)
      We present results based on observations of SN 2015H which belongs to the small group of objects similar to SN 2002cx, otherwise known as type Iax supernovae. The availability of deep pre-explosion imaging allowed us to ...
