The Type Ia SN 1999by in NGC 2841: near-maximum BV(RI)c photometry and the multicolor light–curve shape (MLCS) method
نویسنده
چکیده
Results of BV (RI)c CCD photometry of the bright supernova SN 1999by in the flocculent galaxy NGC 2841 are presented. The Multicolor Light-Curve Shape (MLCS) method is applied to fit the observed V lightcurve around its maximumlight period. The reddening and the luminosity correction parameters were estimated.

We present medium resolution (λ/∆λ ≈ 2500) optical spectroscopy of SN 1999by in NGC 2841 made around its light maximum. The depth ratio of the two Si II features at 5800Å and 6150Å being R(SiII)≈ 0.63 at maximum indicates that this SN belongs to the peculiar, sub-luminous SNe Ia. Radial velocities inferred from the minimum of the 6150Å trough reveal a steeper decline of the velocity curve than ...
متن کاملThe Luminosity of SN 1999 by in NGC 2841 and the Nature of the “ Peculiar ” Type Ia Supernovae
We present UBV RIJHK photometry and optical spectroscopy of the socalled “peculiar” Type Ia supernova 1999by in NGC 2841. The observations began one week before visual maximum light which is well-defined by daily observations. The light curves and spectra are similar to those of the prototypical subluminous event SN 1991bg. We find that maximum light in B occurred on 1999 May 10.3 UT (JD 2,451,...
متن کاملA New Method to Calibrate the Magnitudes of Type Ia Supernovae at Maximum Light
We present a new empirical method for fitting multicolor light curves of Type Ia supernovae. Our method combines elements from two widely used techniques in the literature: the ∆m15 template fitting method (Phillips et al. 1999) and the Multicolor Light-Curve Shape method (MLCS; Riess, Press, & Kirshner 1996). An advantage of our technique is the ease of adding new colors, templates, or paramet...
متن کاملPhotometric Observations of Supernovae 2000 E , 2001
CCD BV RI photometry is presented for two type Ia supernovae 2000E and 2001V, for SN Ib 2001B and SN II-P 2001X. The parameters of light curves and absolute magnitudes at maximum light are estimated. It is shown that all four supernovae are typical for their classes considering the shape of their light curves and maximum luminosity.
متن کاملA Precise Distance Indicator: Type Ia Supernova Multicolor Light Curve Shapes
We present an empirical method that uses multicolor light curve shapes (MLCS) to estimate the luminosity, distance, and total line-of-sight extinction of Type Ia supernovae (SN Ia). The empirical correlation between the MLCS and the luminosity is derived from a “training set” of nine SN Ia light curves with independent distance and reddening estimates. We find that intrinsically dim SN Ia are r...
