Super-luminous supernovae

Models
• Magnetar spindown (Kasen & Bildsten 2010)
• Fallback accretion (Dexter & Kasen 2013)
• Pair-instability explosions (Woosley 2007, Kasen+2011)
• Circumsteller interaction (Blinnikov & Sorokina, Chevalier & Irwin, …)
The Structure and Signals of Neutron Stars 5
Energy from fallback accretion
• Bound material falls back after explosion, forms disk, drives outflow into ejecta, deposits energy
• Jet or wind model: > 1051 ergs / Msun

Fallback accretion rate• Measure from simulated explosions• Flat at early times, asymptotically t-5/3

Accretion powered supernovae• Fallback accretion could power a wide range
of eventsDexter & Kasen (2013)

Evidence for a central engine?• Central engine models explain light curve shapes,
high velocities > 104 km / s• Type I: no narrow lines, need massive H-free CSM
Inserra+2013 Chatzapoulos+2012
The Structure and Signals of Neutron Stars 9
Signatures of central engines
• Central engine emission should shine through• Hard X-rays, γ-rays in nebular phase (Kotera+2013)
• Photo-ionization: UV/X-ray flash (Metzger+2014)
Kotera+2013 Metzger+2014
The Structure and Signals of Neutron Stars 10
Signatures of central engines
• Track thermalization:- Free-free (IR), lines
(optical), bound-free (UV/soft X-ray), Compton scattering (high energy)
• Sharp drops in optical light curve from ionization
Kotera+2013
Time
The Structure and Signals of Neutron Stars 11
Optical/UV colors
• Loss of thermalization potentially observable in late time colors
Inserra+2013

Summary
• Central engine models promising for explaining some super-luminous supernovae– Magnetar spindown or fallback accretion
• Signatures of central engine in optical/UV and high energy emission
• Possible information about stellar collapse and/or compact object birth
The Structure and Signals of Neutron Stars 13
Open Issues• Fallback rate• As in magnetar model:
– Energy deposition in ejecta
• As in collapsar GRBs:– Disk formation– Outflow properties– Interaction of outgoing,
infalling material

Circumstellar Interaction
• Interaction of ejecta with material at large radius resets internal energy
• Large if Rsh >> R0

The Structure and Signals of Neutron Stars 17
Hard X-rays, gamma rays
• For low field strengths, can be significant high energy emission at late times
Kotera+2013
The Structure and Signals of Neutron Stars 18
Soft X-ray flash?• Pulsar could ionize ejecta near peak,
allowing X-rays to escape
