Nebular H$\alpha$ Limits for Fast Declining Type Ia Supernovae

One clear observational prediction of the single degenerate progenitor scenario as the origin of type Ia supernovae (SNe) is the presence of relatively narrow ($\approx$1000 km s$^{-1}$) H$\alpha$ emission at nebular phases, although this feature is rarely seen. We present a compilation of nebular p...

description One clear observational prediction of the single degenerate progenitor scenario as the origin of type Ia supernovae (SNe) is the presence of relatively narrow ($\approx$1000 km s$^{-1}$) H$\alpha$ emission at nebular phases, although this feature is rarely seen. We present a compilation of nebular phase H$\alpha$ limits for SN Ia in the literature and demonstrate that this heterogenous sample has been biased towards SN Ia with relatively high luminosities and slow decline rates, as parameterized by $\Delta$m$_{15}(B)$, the difference in $B$-band magnitude between maximum light and fifteen days afterward. Motivated by the need to explore the full parameter space of SN~Ia and their subtypes, we present two new and six previously published nebular spectra of SN Ia with $\Delta$m$_{15}(B)$$ > $1.3 mag (including members of the transitional and SN1991bg-like subclasses) and measure nondetection limits of $L_{H\alpha}$$~
