摘要:

我们报告ASASSN-15 lh的发现在红移z = 0.2326处,ASASSN-15 lh的绝对星等为M_{u,AB} = -23.5+/-0.1,测热光度L_bol =(2.2+/-0.2)x 10^45尔格·秒^-1,其亮度是任何已知超新星的两倍多。它具有贫氢超亮超新星(SLSNe-I)的几个主要特征,其能量来源和祖先目前还知之甚少。与大多数已知的存在于成星矮星系中的SLSNe-I不同,ASASSN-15 lh似乎是由一个几乎没有恒星形成的发光星系(M_K ~ -25.5)主办的。在第一次探测后的4个月里,ASASSN-15 lh辐射了(1.1+/- 0.2)x10^52尔格,挑战了磁星模型。

英文摘要:

We report the discovery of ASASSN-15lh (SN 2015L), which we interpret as the most luminous supernova yet found. At redshift z = 0.2326, ASASSN-15lh reached an absolute magnitude of M_{u,AB} = -23.5+/-0.1 and bolometric luminosity L_bol = (2.2+/-0.2)x 10^45 ergs s^-1, which is more than twice as luminous as any previously known supernova. It has several major features characteristic of the hydrogen-poor super-luminous supernovae (SLSNe-I), whose energy sources and progenitors are currently poorly understood. In contrast to most previously known SLSNe-I that reside in star-forming dwarf galaxies, ASASSN-15lh appears to be hosted by a luminous galaxy (M_K ~ -25.5) with little star formation. In the 4 months since first detection, ASASSN-15lh radiated (1.1+/- 0.2)x10^52 ergs, challenging the magnetar model for its engine.
