Abstract (from CDS):

We explore the properties of supernova (SN) "Refsdal"-the first discovered gravitationally lensed SN with multiple images. A large magnification provided by the galactic-scale lens, augmented by the cluster lens, gave us a unique opportunity to perform a detailed modeling of a distant SN at z≃1.5. We present results of radiation hydrodynamics modeling of SN Refsdal. According to our calculations, the SN Refsdal progenitor is likely to be a more massive and energetic version of SN 1987A, i.e., a blue supergiant star with the following parameters: the progenitor radius R0=(50±1)R, the total mass Mtot=(25±2)M, the radioactive 56Ni mass M_56Ni=(0.26±0.05)M, and the total energy release Eburst=(4.7±0.8)×1051 erg. Reconstruction of SN light curves allowed us to obtain time delays and magnifications for the images S2-S4 relative to S1 with higher accuracy than previous template-based estimates of Rodney et al. (2016). The measured time delays are ΔtS2–S1=9.5–2.7+2.6 days, ΔtS3–S1=4.2–2.3+2.3 days, and ΔtS4–S1=30–8.2+7.8 days. The obtained magnification ratios are µS2/S1=1.14±0.02, µS3/S1=1.01±0.02, and µS4/S1=0.35±0.02. We estimate the Hubble constant H0=68.6–9.7+13.6 km s–1 Mpc–1 via rescaling the time delays predicted by different lens models to match the values obtained in this work. With more photometric data on the fifth image SX, we will be able to further refine the time delay and magnification estimates for SX and obtain competitive constraints on H0.
