Ítem Close, bright, and boxy: the superluminous SN 2018hti(Oxford University Press, 2022-05-01) Fiore, A.; Benetti, S.; Nicholl, M.; Reguitti, A.; Cappellaro, E.; Campana, S.; Bose, S.; Paraskeva, E.; Berger, E.; Bravo, T.M.; Burke, J.; Cai, Y.-Z.; Chen, T.-W.; Chen, P.; Ciolfi, R.; Dong, S.; Gomez, S.; Gromadzki, M.; Gutiérrez, C.P.; Hiramatsu, D.; Hosseinzadeh, G.; Howell, D.A.; Jerkstrand, A.; Kankare, E.; Kozyreva, A.; Maguire, K.; McCully, C.; Ochner, P.; Pellegrino, C.; Pignata, G.; Post, R.S.; Elias-Rosa, N.; Shahbandeh, M.; Schuldt, S.; Thomas, B.P.; Tomasella, L.; Vinkó, J.; Vogl, C.; Wheeler, J.C.; Young, D.R.SN 2018hti was a very nearby (z = 0.0614) superluminous supernova with an exceedingly bright absolute magnitude of -21.7 mag in r band at maximum. The densely sampled pre-maximum light curves of SN 2018hti show a slow luminosity evolution and constrain the rise time to ∼50 rest-frame d. We fitted synthetic light curves to the photometry to infer the physical parameters of the explosion of SN 2018hti for both the magnetar and the CSM-interaction scenarios. We conclude that one of two mechanisms could be powering the luminosity of SN 2018hti; interaction with ∼10 M⊙ of circumstellar material or a magnetar with a magnetic field of Bp∼1.3 × 1013 G, and initial period of Pspin∼1.8 ms. From the nebular spectrum modelling we infer that SN 2018hti likely results from the explosion of a ∼40M⊙ progenitor star. © 2022 The Author(s) Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of Royal Astronomical Society.Ítem Supernova 2013fc in a circumnuclear ring of a luminous infrared galaxy: The big brother of SN 1998S(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2016-02) Kangas, T.; Mattila, S.; Kankare, E.; Lundqvist, P.; Väisänen, P.; Childress, M.; Pignata, G.; McCully, C.; Valenti, S.; Vinkó, J.; Pastorello, A.; Elias-Rosa, N.; Fraser, M.; Gal-Yam, A.; Kotak, R.; Kotilainen, J. K.; Smartt, S. J.; Galbany, L.; Harmanen, J.; Howell, D. A.; Inserra, C.; Marion, G. H.; Quimby, R. M.; Silverman, J. M.; Szalai, T.; Wheeler, J. C.; Ashall, C.; Benetti, S.; Romero-Cañizales, C.; Smith, K. W.; Sullivan, M.; Takáts, K.; Young, D. R.We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of SN 2013fc, a bright type II supernova (SN) in a circumnuclear star-forming ring in the luminous infrared galaxy ESO 154-G010, observed as part of the Public ESO Spectroscopic Survey of Transient Objects. SN 2013fc is both photometrically and spectroscopically similar to the well-studied type IIn SN 1998S and to the bright type II-L SN 1979C. It exhibits an initial linear decline, followed by a short plateau phase and a tail phase with a decline too fast for Co-56 decay with full. gamma-ray trapping. Initially, the spectrum was blue and featureless. Later on, a strong broad (similar to 8000 km s(-1)) H alpha emission profile became prominent. We apply a STARLIGHT stellar population model fit to the SN location (observed when the SN had faded) to estimate a high extinction of A(V) = 2.9 +/- 0.2 mag and an age of 10(+ 3) (- 2) Myr for the underlying cluster. We compare the SN to SNe 1998S and 1979C and discuss its possible progenitor star considering the similarities to these events. With a peak brightness of B = - 20.46 +/- 0.21 mag, SN 2013fc is 0.9 mag brighter than SN 1998S and of comparable brightness to SN 1979C. We suggest that SN 2013fc was consistent with a massive red supergiant (RSG) progenitor. Recent mass loss probably due to a strong RSG wind created the circumstellar matter illuminated through its interaction with the SN ejecta. We also observe a near- infrared excess, possibly due to newly condensed dust.
