<i>GALEX</i>DETECTION OF SHOCK BREAKOUT IN TYPE IIP SUPERNOVA PS1-13arp: IMPLICATIONS FOR THE PROGENITOR STAR WIND
We present the GALEX detection of a UV burst at the time of explosion of an optically normal supernova (SN) IIP (PS1-13arp) from the Pan-STARRS1 survey at z = 0.1665. The temperature and luminosity of the UV burst match the theoretical predictions for shock breakout in a red supergiant (RSG), …
