摘要:

IIP型超新星(SNe IIP)最近被提议作为金属丰度($Z$)探针。Dessart等人(2014)的光谱模型表明,在平台期期间Fe II $λ$ 5018(pEW $_{5018}$)的伪等效宽度取决于原始$Z$,但缺乏表现出与$Z < 0.4$ ${\rm Z}_{\odot}$相容的pEW $_{5018}$的SNe IIP。这种缺乏可能是由于SN II人口的某些物理特性,或者是因为这些SNe已经在明亮的富含金属的目标星系中被发现。在这里,我们使用来自非靶向(中间)帕洛玛瞬态工厂[(i)PTF]调查的SN II观测,旨在研究该SN群体的pEW $_{5018}$分布,特别是在较低的$Z$下寻找SNe II的存在。我们执行pEW $_{5018}$测量的光谱样品的39(i)PTF SNe II,选择具有良好的约束爆炸时期和光变曲线属性。基于与pEW $_{5018}$光谱模型的比较,我们将我们的SNe分成从$Z \approx 0.1$ $Z_{\odot}$到$Z \approx 2$ $Z_{\odot}$的四个$Z$箱。我们还独立地调查了主机的$Z$,通过使用它们的绝对大小和颜色,在少数情况下,使用强线诊断光谱。我们搜索SN观测值之间可能的相关性,例如它们的峰值幅度和从pEW $_{5018}$推断的$Z$。我们发现了11例pEW $_{5018}$事件,这些事件小到足以表明$Z \approx 0.1$ $Z_{\odot}$。pEW $_{5018}$与$Z$的趋势与从宿主星系测光获得的$Z$估计值相匹配,尽管相关性的显著性较弱。我们还发现,具有较亮峰值幅度的SNe具有较小的pEW $_{5018}$,并且发生在较低的$Z$。

英文摘要:

Type IIP supernovae (SNe IIP) have recently been proposed as metallicity ($Z$) probes. The spectral models of Dessart et al. (2014) showed that the pseudo-equivalent width of Fe II $λ$5018 (pEW$_{5018}$) during the plateau phase depends on the primordial $Z$, but there was a paucity of SNe IIP exhibiting pEW$_{5018}$ that were compatible with $Z < 0.4$ ${\rm Z}_{\odot}$. This lack might be due to some physical property of the SN II population or to the fact that those SNe have been discovered in luminous, metal-rich targeted galaxies. Here we use SN II observations from the untargeted (intermediate) Palomar Transient Factory [(i)PTF] survey, aiming to investigate the pEW$_{5018}$ distribution of this SN population and, in particular, to look for the presence of SNe II at lower $Z$. We perform pEW$_{5018}$ measurements on the spectra of a sample of 39 (i)PTF SNe II, selected to have well-constrained explosion epochs and light-curve properties. Based on the comparison with the pEW$_{5018}$ spectral models, we subgrouped our SNe into four $Z$ bins from $Z \approx 0.1$ $Z_{\odot}$ up to $Z \approx 2$ $Z_{\odot}$. We also independently investigated the $Z$ of the hosts by using their absolute magnitudes and colors and, in a few cases, using strong-line diagnostics from spectra. We searched for possible correlations between SN observables, such as their peak magnitudes and the $Z$ inferred from pEW$_{5018}$. We found 11 events with pEW$_{5018}$ that were small enough to indicate $Z \approx 0.1$ $Z_{\odot}$. The trend of pEW$_{5018}$ with $Z$ matches the $Z$ estimates obtained from the host-galaxy photometry, although the significance of the correlation is weak. We also found that SNe with brighter peak magnitudes have smaller pEW$_{5018}$ and occur at lower $Z$.
