Abstract:	摘要： We report on our discovery and observations of the Pan-STARRS1 supernova (SN) PS1-12sk, a transient with properties that indicate atypical star formation in its host galaxy cluster or pose a challenge to popular progenitor system models for this class of explosion. The optical spectra of PS1-12sk classify it as a Type Ibn SN (SN Ibn; cf. SN 2006jc), dominated by intermediate-width (3 x 10 super(3) km s super(-1)) and time variable He I emission. Our multi-wavelength monitoring establishes the rise time dt ~ 9-23 days and shows an NUV-NIR spectral energy distribution with temperature [> ~]17 x 10 super(3) K and a peak magnitude of M sub(z) = -18.88 + or - 0.02 mag. SN Ibn spectroscopic properties are commonly interpreted as the signature of a massive star (17-100 M sub([middot in circle])) explosion within an He-enriched circumstellar medium. However, unlike previous SNe Ibn, PS1-12sk is associated with an elliptical brightest cluster galaxy, CGCG 208-042 (z = 0.054) in cluster RXC J0844.9+4258. The expected probability of an event like PS1-12sk in such environments is low given the measured infrequency of core-collapse SNe in red-sequence galaxies compounded by the low volumetric rate of SN Ibn. Furthermore, we find no evidence of star formation at the explosion site to sensitive limits ([Sigma] sub(H[alpha]) [<, ~] 2 x 10 super(-3) M sub([middot in circle]) yr super(-1) kpc super(-2)). We therefore discuss white dwarf binary systems as a possible progenitor channel for SNe Ibn. We conclude that PSl-12sk represents either a fortuitous and statistically unlikely discovery, evidence for a top-heavy initial mass function in galaxy cluster cooling flow filaments, or the first clue suggesting an alternate progenitor channel for SNe Ibn. 出版者： United States 出版日期： 2013-05-20 出處： The Astrophysical journal, 2013-05, Vol.769 (1), p.39-15 資源來源： IoP Science journals 識別號： ISSN: 0004-637X 識別號： ISSN: 1538-4357 識別號： EISSN: 1538-4357 識別號： DOI: 10.1088/0004-637X/769/1/39
