ANALYSIS OF THE EARLY-TIME OPTICAL SPECTRA OF SN 2011fe IN M101

The nearby Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) SN 2011fe in M101 (cz = 241 km s[superscript –1]) provides a unique opportunity to study the early evolution of a "normal" SN Ia, its compositional structure, and its elusive progenitor system. We present 18 high signal-to-noise spectra of SN 2011fe dur...
