Tentative detection of the gravitational magnification of type Ia supernovae

Jakob Jonsson, Tomas Dahlen, Ariel Goobar +2

The flux from distant type Ia supernovae (SN) is likely to be amplified or de-amplified by gravitational lensing due to matter distributions along the line-of-sight. A gravitationa…
