Abstract

High-cadence ultraviolet, optical, and near-infrared photometric and low-resolution spectroscopic observations of the peculiar Type II supernova (SN) 2018hna are presented. The early-phase multiband light curves (LCs) exhibit the adiabatic cooling envelope emission following the shock breakout up to similar to 14 days from the explosion. SN. 2018hna has a rise time of similar to 88 days in the V band, similar to SN 1987A. A Ni-56 mass of similar to 0.087 +/- 0.004 M-circle dot is inferred for SN 2018hna from its bolometric LC. Hydrodynamical modeling of the cooling phase suggests a progenitor with a radius similar to 50 R-circle dot, a mass of similar to 14-20 M-circle dot, and an explosion energy of similar to 1.7-2.9 x 10(51) erg. The smaller inferred radius of the progenitor than a standard red supergiant is indicative of a blue supergiant progenitor of SN 2018hna. A subsolar metallicity (similar to 0.3 Z(circle dot)) is inferred for the host galaxy UGC 07534, concurrent with the low-metallicity environments of 1987A-like events.
