摘要:

在T(B_max)后2 ~ 494天的49个夜晚,我们获得了SN 2003 gs的光学测光结果。我们还获得了近红外测光的21个夜晚。SN 2003 gs是自SN 1999年以来第一个被观测到的快速衰减的Ia型SN。虽然它在光学波段是亚发光的,但在近红外波段的最大亮度下并不是亚发光的。Ia型超新星在最大光照下的近红外绝对星等呈现双峰分布。在T(B_max)之后出现近红外峰的那些在所有波段都是亚发光的。那些在T(B_max)之前在近红外达到峰值的天体,如SN 2003 gs,在最大光下实际上具有相同的近红外绝对幅度,而不管下降率Δ m_15(B)如何。近红外光谱证据表明SN 2003 gs外层的不透明度比正常的Ia型SNe要早得多。这可能会让驱动亮度的伽马射线更快地逃逸,并加速下降速度。这一结论与SN 2003 gs在IR中的光度行为一致,这表明从近似正常的峰值亮度下降的速度比正常快。

英文摘要:

We obtained optical photometry of SN 2003gs on 49 nights, from 2 to 494 days after T(B_max). We also obtained near-IR photometry on 21 nights. SN 2003gs was the first fast declining Type Ia SN that has been well observed since SN 1999by. While it was subluminous in optical bands compared to more slowly declining Type Ia SNe, it was not subluminous at maximum light in the near-IR bands. There appears to be a bimodal distribution in the near-IR absolute magnitudes of Type Ia SNe at maximum light. Those that peak in the near-IR after T(B_max) are subluminous in the all bands. Those that peak in the near-IR prior to T(B_max), such as SN 2003gs, have effectively the same near-IR absolute magnitudes at maximum light regardless of the decline rate Delta m_15(B). Near-IR spectral evidence suggests that opacities in the outer layers of SN 2003gs are reduced much earlier than for normal Type Ia SNe. That may allow gamma rays that power the luminosity to escape more rapidly and accelerate the decline rate. This conclusion is consistent with the photometric behavior of SN 2003gs in the IR, which indicates a faster than normal decline from approximately normal peak brightness.
