We present new data for five underluminous Type II-plateau supernovae (SNe IIP), namely SN 1999gn, SN 2002gd, SN 2003Z, SN 2004eg and SN 2006ov. This new sample of low-luminosity SNe IIP (LL SNe II ...

• The diversity of Type II supernova versus the similarity in their progenitors (2016, methodology): “22, confirm the finding (Hamuy 2003; Spiro et al. 2014; Pejcha & Prieto 2015) that brighter SNe produce MNRAS 000, 000–000 (0000) 18 Valenti et al. larger 56Ni masses.”
• Bolometric light curves and explosion parameters of 38 stripped-envelope core-collapse supernovae (2014, background): “Similarly, a correlation between MNi and v50 (vph at 50 d after MNRAS 457, 328–350 (2016) explosion) was shown for SNe IIP by Hamuy (2003), which was found to extend to underluminous SNe IIP by Spiro et al. (2014).”
• The Discovery of the Electromagnetic Counterpart of GW170817: Kilonova AT 2017gfo/DLT17ck (2017, result): “Spectroscopic observations conducted about 35 hr after the explosion show a featureless continuum with a blackbody temperature of 5200 K, confirming the fast evolution of DLT17ck compared to the evolution of other transients such as classical SNe.”
• Observational Constraints on the Progenitors of Core-Collapse Supernovae: The Case for Missing High-Mass Stars (2015, methodology): “However, Spiro et al. (2014) used a different code (that of Pumo & Zampieri 2011) to find better agreement between the direct progenitor masses and hydrodynamic masses estimates.”
• CORE-COLLAPSE SUPERNOVAE FROM 9 TO 120 SOLAR MASSES BASED ON NEUTRINO-POWERED EXPLOSIONS (2015, background): “The observations (Hamuy 2003; Spiro et al. 2014) show a particularly strong correlation of plateau luminosity with the inferred mass of 56Ni, extending all the way down to 10−3 M for the latter.”
• THE LANDSCAPE OF THE NEUTRINO MECHANISM OF CORE-COLLAPSE SUPERNOVAE: NEUTRON STAR AND BLACK HOLE MASS FUNCTIONS, EXPLOSION ENERGIES, AND NICKEL YIELDS (2014, methodology): “This is in some agreement with Spiro et al. (2014), who found that at least some low-luminosity type II supernovae come from intermediate-mass stars with 10 .”
