Gamma-ray bursts and supernovae

Observations of SN 1985L in NGC 5033 with the Very Large Array radio telescope have resulted in two detections of radio emission at 6 cm wavelength about 8 and 16 months after optical discovery. Combined with a number of upper limits and a study of possible models, these indicate that SN 1985L was probably a fairly normal Type II-L radio supernova, somewhat intermediate in radio properties between the well-studied radio supernovae SN 1979C and SN 1980K. A possible late-time optical detection, discussed in an accompanying paper by Fesen (1998), continues the observed correlation between radio and late-time optical emission.
