The ASAS-SN bright supernova catalogue. II. 2015. (2017)

Keywords : catalogues - surveys - supernovae general

Abstract:This manuscript presents information for all supernovae discovered by the All-Sky Automated Survey for SuperNovae (ASAS-SN) during 2015, its second full year of operations. The same information is presented for bright (mV<=17), spectroscopically confirmed supernovae discovered by other sources in 2015. As with the first ASAS-SN bright supernova catalogue, we also present redshifts and near-ultraviolet through infrared magnitudes for all supernova host galaxies in both samples. Combined with our previous catalogue, this work comprises a complete catalogue of 455 supernovae from multiple professional and amateur sources, allowing for population studies that were previously impossible. This is the second of a series of yearly papers on bright ...(more)
Abstract: (hide)
The ASAS-SN supernova sample is listed in Table 1 and includes all supernovae discovered by ASAS-SN between 2015 January 1 and 2015 December 31. As in Holoien et al. (2017. Cat. J/MNRAS/464/2672), we collected the names, discovery dates, host names and host offsets for ASAS-SN discoveries from our discovery ATels, which are cited in Table 1. International Astronomical Union (IAU) names are also listed for those supernovae that had one assigned. As we note in our ATels, we view the ASAS-SN names as having priority due to the failure of the IAU system to provide proper credit to the discovery team. We use the IAU system only to avoid temporal reporting conflicts, and encourage others to refer to our discoveries by their ASAS-SN designations. Table 2 gives information for the sample of bright supernovae that were not discovered by ASAS-SN. This sample includes all spectroscopically confirmed supernovae with peak magnitudes m_peak_<=17 discovered between 2015 January 1 and 2015 December 31.
