Ground-based & JWST obs. of SN 2022pul. I.

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Nebular-phase observations of peculiar Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) provide important constraints on progenitor scenarios and explosion dynamics for both these rare SNe and the more common, cosmologically useful SNe Ia.

Description

We present observations from an extensive ground- and space-based follow-up campaign to characterize SN 2022pul, a super-Chandrasekhar mass SN Ia (alternatively "03fg-like" SN), from before peak brightness to well into the nebular phase across optical to mid-infrared (MIR) wavelengths.

The early rise of the light curve is atypical, exhibiting two distinct components, consistent with SN Ia ejecta interacting with dense carbon-oxygen (C/O)-rich circumstellar material (CSM). In the optical, SN 2022pul is most similar to SN2012dn, having a low estimated peak luminosity (M_B_=-18.9mag) and high photospheric velocity relative to other 03fg-like SNe. In the nebular phase, SN 2022pul adds to the increasing diversity of the 03fg-like subclass.

From 168 to 336 days after peak B-band brightness, SN 2022pul exhibits asymmetric and narrow emission from [OI]{lambda}{lambda}6300,6364 (FWHM~2000km/s), strong, broad emission from [CaII]{lambda}{lambda}7291,7323 (FWHM~7300km/s), and a rapid FeIII to FeII ionization change. Finally, we present the first ever optical-to-MIR nebular spectrum of an 03fg-like SN Ia using data from JWST. In the MIR, strong lines of neon and argon, weak emission from stable nickel, and strong thermal dust emission (with T~500K), combined with prominent [OI] in the optical, suggest that SN 2022pul was produced by a white dwarf merger within C/O-rich CSM.
