Observations of the Supernova 1987 A in the large magellanic cloud
Description
Observations of the recent supernova 1987 A in the Large Magellanic Cloud up to mid-may 1987 are summarized: light curve and colors, optical, UV and IR spectrum, nature of the progenitor, interstellar lines in the spectrum. It is shown that this is a somewhat atypical Type II supernova resulting from the explosion of a massive star, but definitive conclusions on the exact nature of its progenitor will have to wait for some time
