Don’t blink: constraining the circumstellar environment of the interacting type Ia supernova 2015cp
Despite their cosmological utility, the progenitors of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are still unknown, with many efforts focused on whether accretion from a nondegenerate companion can grow a carbon–oxygen white dwarf to near the Chandrasekhar mass. The association of SNe Ia resembling SN 1991T (&quo...
