Issue Date: | 2015 | Journal: | MONTHLY NOTICES OF THE ROYAL ASTRONOMICAL SOCIETY | Number: | 450 | Issue: | 3 | First Page: | 3137 | Abstract: | We present optical and near-infrared photometry and spectroscopy of SN 2009ib, a Type II-P supernova in NGC 1559. This object has moderate brightness, similar to those of the intermediate-luminosity SNe 2008in and 2009N. Its plateau phase is unusually long, lasting for about 130 d after explosion. The spectra are similar to those of the subluminous SN 2002gd, with moderate expansion velocities. We estimate the <SUP>56</SUP>Ni mass produced as 0.046 ± 0.015 M<SUB>☉</SUB>. We determine the distance to SN 2009ib using both the expanding photosphere method (EPM) and the standard candle method. We also apply EPM to SN 1986L, a Type II-P SN that exploded in the same galaxy. Combining the results of different methods, we conclude the distance to NGC 1559 as D = 19.8 ± 3.0 Mpc. We examine archival, pre-explosion images of the field taken with the Hubble Space Telescope, and find a faint source at the position of the SN, which has a yellow colour [(V - I)<SUB>0</SUB> = 0.85 mag]. Assuming it is a single star, we estimate its initial mass as M<SUB>ZAMS</SUB> = 20 M<SUB>☉</SUB>. We also examine the possibility, that instead of the yellow source the progenitor of SN 2009ib is a red supergiant star too faint to be detected. In this case, we estimate the upper limit for the initial zero-age main sequence (ZAMS) mass of the progenitor to be ̃14-17 M<SUB>☉</SUB>. In addition, we infer the physical properties of the progenitor at the explosion via hydrodynamical modelling of the observables, and estimate the total energy as ̃0.55 × 10<SUP>51</SUP> erg, the pre-explosion radius as ̃400 R<SUB>☉</SUB>, and the ejected envelope mass as ̃15 M<SUB>☉</SUB>, which implies that the mass of the progenitor before explosion was ̃16.5-17 M<SUB>☉</SUB>. | Acknowledgments: | We thank the referee for the useful comments that helped to improve this manuscript.
