Résumé

The majority of Type II-plateau supernovae (SNe IIP) have light curves that are not compatible with the explosions of stars in a vacuum; instead, the light curves require the progenitors to be embedded in circumstellar matter (CSM). We report on the successful fitting of the well-observed SN IIP 2021yja as a core-collapse explosion of a massive star with an initial mass of ∼15 M $_{⊙}$ and a pre-explosion radius of 631 R $_{⊙}$. To explain the early-time behavior of the broadband light curves, the presence of 0.55 M $_{⊙}$ CSM within ∼2 × 10$^{14}$ cm is needed. Like many other SNe IIP, SN 2021yja exhibits an early-time flux excess including ultraviolet wavelengths. This, together with the short rise time (<2 days) in the gri bands, indicates the presence of a compact component in the CSM, essentially adjacent to the progenitor. We discuss the origin of the preexisting CSM, which is most likely a common property of highly convective red supergiant envelopes. We argue that the difficulty in fitting the entire light curve with one spherical distribution indicates that the CSM around the SN 2021yja progenitor was asymmetric.
