摘要:

自从SN 2002 cx的原型被发现以来,低速贫氢超新星的epnoid类已经发展到最多包括另外24个成员,这些成员是从几次异质调查中确定的,在某些情况下是模糊的。在这里,我们提出了一个系统的研究结果,1077氢贫超新星发现的帕洛玛瞬态工厂,导致九个新成员的这个特殊的类。此外,我们发现有两个不同的子类的基础上,他们的光谱,光度,和宿主星系的属性:“SN 2002 cx类”超新星往往是在较晚类型或更不规则的主机,有更多的变化和一般较暗的光度,有较长的上升时间,并缺乏Ti II槽相比,“SN 2002 es类”超新星。没有一个天体显示出氦,我们反驳了之前关于两个这样的事件的说法。我们还发现,这些瞬变包括5.6+17-3.7%(90%置信度)的所有SNe Ia,低于早期的估计。结合我们的对象与文献样本,我们提出,这些子类有两个不同的物理起源。

英文摘要:

Since the discovery of the unusual prototype SN 2002cx, the eponymous class of low-velocity, hydrogen-poor supernovae has grown to include at most another two dozen members identified from several heterogeneous surveys, in some cases ambiguously. Here we present the results of a systematic study of 1077 hydrogen-poor supernovae discovered by the Palomar Transient Factory, leading to nine new members of this peculiar class. Moreover we find there are two distinct subclasses based on their spectroscopic, photometric, and host galaxy properties: The "SN 2002cx-like" supernovae tend to be in later-type or more irregular hosts, have more varied and generally dimmer luminosities, have longer rise times, and lack a Ti II trough when compared to the "SN 2002es-like" supernovae. None of our objects show helium, and we counter a previous claim of two such events. We also find that these transients comprise 5.6+17-3.7% (90% confidence) of all SNe Ia, lower compared to earlier estimates. Combining our objects with the literature sample, we propose that these subclasses have two distinct physical origins.
