Abstract

Supernova properties in radio strongly depend on their circumstellar environment and they are an important probe to investigate the mass loss of supernova progenitors. Recently, core-collapse supernova observations in radio have been assembled and the rise time and peak luminosity distribution of core-collapse supernovae in radio has been obtained. In this talk, we will discuss the constraints on the mass-loss prescriptions of red supergiants obtained from the assembled radio properties of Type II supernovae. We take a couple of mass-loss prescriptions for red supergiants, calculate the rise time and peak luminosity distribution based on them, and compare the results with the observed distribution. We found that the widely spread radio rise time and peak luminosity distribution of Type II supernovae can only be explained by mass-loss prescriptions having strong dependence on the luminosity. Red supergiant mass-loss prescriptions should have steep luminosity dependence in the supernova progenitor range.
