abstract
Early-time observations of the Type II supernovae (SNe) 2013cu and 2013fs have revealed an interaction of ejecta with material near the star surface. Unlike the Type IIn SN2010jl, which interacts with a dense wind for ~1yr, the interaction ebbs after 2-3d, suggesting a dense and compact circumstellar envelope. Here, we use multi-group radiation-hydrodynamics and non-local-thermodynamic-equilibrium radiative transfer to explore the properties of red supergiant (RSG) star explosions embedded in a variety of dense envelopes. We consider the cases of an extended static atmosphere or a steady-state wind, adopting a range of mass loss rates. The shock-breakout signal, the SN radiation up to 10d, and the ejecta dynamics are strongly influenced by the properties of this nearby environment. This compromises the use of early-time observations to constrain Rstar. The presence of narrow lines for 2-3d in 2013fs and 2013cu require a cocoon of material of ~0.01Msun out to 5-10Rstar. Spectral lines evolve from electron-scattering to Doppler broadened, with a growing blueshift of their emission peaks. Recent studies propose a super-wind phase with a mass loss rate from 0.001 up to 1Msun/yr in the last months/years of the RSG life, although there is no observational constraint that this external material is a steady-state outflow. Alternatively, observations may be explained by the explosion of a RSG star inside its complex atmosphere. Indeed, spatially resolved observations reveal that RSG stars have extended atmospheres, with the presence of downflows and upflows out to several Rstar, even in a standard RSG like Betelgeuse. Mass loading in the region intermediate between star and wind can accommodate the 0.01Msun needed to explain the observations of 2013fs. A puzzling super-wind phase prior to core-collapse may be therefore superfluous [Abridged].

Population synthesis from binary evolution models predicts periodic neutron star-companion interactions in more than half of surviving hydrogen-poor core-collapse supernovae, with periods peaking at 20-50 days and lasting 0.5-10 years.
SN 2019vxm is a luminous, long-lived Type IIn supernova showing early flash-ionization features, a power-law bolometric light curve, and mid-IR dust formation, with a progenitor mass-loss rate lower limit of at least 0.01 solar masses per year.
Depositing stellar luminosity in an inner shell and cooling low-density outer cells produces a stable pulsating 3D red supergiant model for common envelope simulations without relaxation.
