Radio observations of PS1-12fo (=CSS120121)
Abstract
PS1-12fo is an ultra-luminous supernova of Type Ic at z=0.175 (ATel #3918), belonging to the SN class identified by Quimby et al. (2011, Nature, 474, 487). We searched for radio continuum emission from this SN with the EVLA on 2012 Feb 12.3 UT at a frequency of 5.9 GHz, yielding a non-detection of 2 ± 7 microJy. This is consistent with the non-detection of radio emission from other objects in this class (Chomiuk et al.
