Supernova forecast with strong lensing

Year: 2017
Type: article
Abstract: In the coming Large Synoptic Survey Telescope era, we will observe |$\mathcal {O}(100)$| of lensed supernovae (SNe). In this paper, we investigate the possibility for predicting time and sky position of an SN using strong lensing. We find that it will be possible to predict the time and position of the fourth image of SNe which produce four images by strong lensing, with combined information from the three previous images. It is useful to perform multimessenger observations of the very early phase of SN explosions including the shock breakout.
