Description

We present a detailed study of the Type Ib/c SN 2010as based on optical and near-infrared imaging and spectroscopy, plus radio observations. The data span from about two weeks before to about 150 days after maximum light. SN colors and spectra indicate this object suffered considerable reddening by dust. Intermediate resolution X-Shooter spectra cover the time of maximum light and show multi-component interstellar absorption lines. Pre-maximum spectra show large velocity variations in Ca II and probable H lines. We use the multi-band data to derive physical parameters for the progenitor object and explosion process.
