However, the most nearby SLSN to date, SN 2017egm, occurred in the spiral galaxy NGC 3191, which has a relatively high stellar mass and correspondingly high metallicity. In this paper, we present detailed analysis of the nearby environment of SN 2017egm using MaNGA IFU data, which provides spectral data on kiloparsec scales. From the velocity map we find no evidence that SN 2017egm occurred within some intervening satellite galaxy, and at the SN position most metallicity diagnostics yield a solar and above solar metallicity (12 + log (O=H) ∼ 8:8 − 9:1). Additionally we measure a small Hα equivalent width (EW) at the SN position of just 34 Å, which is one of the lowest EWs measured at any SLSN or Gamma-Ray Burst position, and indicative of the progenitor star being comparatively old. We also compare the observed properties of NGC 3191 with other SLSN host galaxies. The solar-metallicity environment at the position of SN 2017egm presents a challenge to our theoretical understanding, and our spatially resolved spectral analysis provides further constraints on the progenitors of SLSNe.

  • The Host of the Type I SLSN 2017Egm: a Young, Sub-Solar Metallicity Environment in a Massive Spiral Galaxy

Type-I Super-luminous-Supernova (SLSN) host galaxies are predominantly low-metallicity, highly star-forming dwarfs. One of the current key questions is whether SLSNe Type I can only occur in such environments and hosts. Aims. Here we present an integral-field study of the massive, high-metallicity spiral NGC 3191, the host of SN 2017egm, the closest SLSN Type I to date. We use data from PMAS/CAHA and the public MaNGA survey to shed light on the properties of the SLSN site and the origin of star-formation in this non-starburst spiral galaxy. Methods. We map the physical properties different H ii regions throughout the galaxy and characterize their stellar populations using the STARLIGHT fitting code. Kinematical information allows to study a possible interaction with its neighbouring galaxy as the origin of recent star formation activity which could have caused the SLSN.

BLANCHARD1 ,JAMES GUILLOCHON1 ,JOEL LEJA1 AND RYAN CHORNOCK3 1Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, 60 Garden Street, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138, USA; [email protected] 2Center for Interdisciplinary Exploration and Research in Astrophysics (CIERA) and Department of Physics and Astronomy, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL 60208 3Astrophysical Institute, Department of Physics and Astronomy, 251B Clippinger Lab, Ohio University, Athens, OH 45701, USA ABSTRACT At redshift z = 0:03, the recently-discovered SN 2017egm is the nearest Type I superluminous supernova (SLSN) to date, and first near the center of a massive spiral galaxy (NGC 3191). Using SDSS spectra of NGC 3191, we find a metallicity ∼ 2 Z at the nucleus and ∼ 1:3 Z for a star forming region at a radial offset similar -1 to SN 2017egm. Archival radio-to-UV photometry reveals a star-formation rate ∼ 15 M yr (with ∼ 70% 10:7 dust-obscured), which can account for a Swift X-ray detection, and stellar mass ∼ 10 M . We model the early UV-optical light curves with a magnetar central-engine model, using the Bayesian light curve fitting tool 14 MOSFiT. The fits indicate ejecta mass 2 - 4 M , spin period 4 - 6 ms, magnetic field (0:7 - 1:7) × 10 G, and kinetic energy 1-2×1051 erg. These parameters are consistent with the overall distributions for SLSNe, modeled by Nicholl et al.(2017b), although the derived mass and spin are towards the low end, possibly indicating enhanced loss of mass and angular momentum before explosion.

University, Department of Physics and Astronomy, 4242 TAMU, College Station, TX 77843, USA Received 2017 October 31; revised 2018 March 8; accepted 2018 March 24; published 2018 May 10 Abstract SN2017egm is the closest (z=0.03) H-poor superluminous supernova (SLSN-I) detected to date, and a rare example of an SLSN-I in a massive, metal-rich galaxy. We present the HST UV and optical spectra covering 1000–5500 Å, taken at +3 day relative to the peak. Our data reveal two absorption systems at redshifts matching the host galaxy NGC 3191 (z=0.0307) and its companion galaxy (z=0.0299) 73″ apart. Weakly damped Lyα absorption lines are detected at these two redshifts, with H I column densities of (3.0±0.8)×1019 and − (3.7±0.9)×1019 cm 2, respectively.
