SN 1998S shows strong, relatively narrow circumstellar emission lines of N III-V and C III-IV, as well as broad lines from the ejecta. Both the broad ultraviolet and optical lines in SN 1998S indicate an expansion velocity of ~7,000 km/s. The broad emission components of Ly-alpha and Mg II are strongly asymmetrical after day 72 past the explosion, and differ in shape from H-alpha. Different models based on dust extinction from dust in the ejecta or shock region, in combination with H-alpha from a circumstellar torus, are discussed. It is concluded, however, that the double-peaked line profiles are more likely to arise as a result of optical depth effects in the narrow, cool, dense shell behind the reverse shock, than in a torus-like region. The ultraviolet lines of SN 1993J are broad, with a box-like shape, coming from the ejecta and a cool dense shell. The shapes of the lines are well fitted with a shell with inner velocity ~7,000 km/s and outer velocity ~10,000 km/s. For both SN 1993J and SN 1998S a strong nitrogen enrichment is found, with N/C~12.4 in SN 1993J and N/C~6.0 in SN 1998S. From a compilation of all supernovae with determined CNO ratios, we discuss the implications of these observations for the structure of the progenitors of Type II supernovae.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2004-09-17T18:30:22.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "sn 1998s", "sn 1993j", "hubble space telescope", "ground-based observations", "cno processing" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 45, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 659577 } } }
