We present the measurement of the size and surface brightness of the expanding light echoes from supernova (SN) 2014J in the nearby starburst galaxy M82. Hubble Space Telescope (HST) ACS/WFC images were taken ~277 and ~416 days (after the time of B-band maximum light) in the filters F475W, F606W, and F775W, each combined with the three polarizing filters: POL0V, POL60V, and POL120V. The two epochs imaging reveals the time evolution of at least two major echoes. Three concentric bright regions between position angles (PA, 0^{circ} from North, counterclockwise). 80^{circ} ~ 170^{circ} have projected radius of 0.60 on the sky on ~277 days and expanding to 0.75 on ~416 days, corresponding to scattering materials at a foreground distance of 222pm37 pc. Another fainter but evident light echo extending over a wide range of PA has radii of 0.75 and 0.96 on ~277 and ~416 days. This corresponds to scattering material at a foreground distance of 367pm61 pc. Multiple light echoes with S/N > 2.5 reside at smaller radii on ~277 days but become less significant on ~416 days indicating a complex structure of foreground interstellar medium (ISM). The light echo shows bluer color than predicted under a Rayleigh scattering case. We also found the light echo brightened from V_{echo}=21.68pm0.07 on 2014 September 5, to V_{echo}=21.05pm0.08 on 2014 November 6, suggesting an enhancement of echoing materials at different distances projected on to the plane of the sky.
We present multiple-epoch measurements of the size and surface brightness of the light echoes from supernova (SN) 2014J in the nearby starburst galaxy M82. Hubble Space Telescope (HST) ACS/WFC images were taken ~277 and ~416 days after B-band maximum
The very nearby Type Ia supernova 2014J in M82 offers a rare opportunity to study the physics of thermonuclear supernovae at extremely late phases ($gtrsim$800 days). Using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), we obtained six epochs of high precision ph
Optical polarimetry is an effective way of probing the environment of supernova for dust. We acquired linear HST ACS/WFC polarimetry in bands $F475W$, $F606W$, and $F775W$ of the supernova (SN) 2014J in M82 at six epochs from $sim$277 days to $sim$11
We present UBVRI photometry of the supernova 2014J in M82, obtained in the period from January 24 until March 3, 2014, as well as two spectra, taken on February 4 and March 5. We derive dates and magnitudes of maximum light in the UBVRI bands, the li
We present optical and ultraviolet (UV) photometry and spectra of the very nearby and highly reddened supernova (SN) 2014J in M82 obtained with the Swift Ultra-Violet/Optical Telescope (UVOT). Comparison of the UVOT grism spectra of SN~2014J with Hub
