Title: Probing Shock Breakout with Serendipitous GALEX Detections of Two SNLS Type II-P Supernovae
Authors: Suvi Gezari, Luc Dessart, Stephane Basa, D. Chris Martin, James D. Neill, S.E. Woosley, D. John Hillier, Gurvan Bazin, Karl Forster, Peter G. Friedman, Jeremy Le Du, Alain Mazure, Patrick Morrissey, Susan G. Neff, David Schiminovich, Ted K. Wyder
We report the serendipitous detection by GALEX of fast (< 1 day) rising (> 1 mag) UV emission from two Type II Plateau (II-P) supernovae (SNe) at z=0.185 and 0.324 discovered by the Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS).
