SN 2017ens: The Metamorphosis of a Luminous Broad-lined Type Ic Supernova into an SN IIn

By Tim-Wei Chen and others
We present observations of supernova (SN) 2017ens, discovered by the ATLAS survey and identified as a hot blue object through the GREAT program. The redshift z=0.1086 implies a peak brightness of M_g=-21.1 mag, placing the object within the regime of superluminous supernovae. We observe a dramatic spectral evolution, from initially...
