Evidence for Type Ia Supernova Diversity from Ultraviolet Observations with the Hubble Space Telescope

Xiaofeng Wang, Lifan Wang, Alexei V. Filippenko +93

We present ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy and photometry of four Type Ia supernovae (SNe 2004dt, 2004ef, 2005M, and 2005cf) obtained with the UV prism of the Advanced Camera for Sur…

High Amplitude δ-Scutis in the Large Magellanic Cloud

A. Garg, K. H. Cook, S. Nikolaev +13

We present 2323 High-Amplitude δ-Scuti (HADS) candidates discovered in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) by the SuperMACHO survey (Rest et al. 2005). Frequency analyses of these can…

Pushing the Boundaries of Conventional Core-Collapse Supernovae: The Extremely Energetic Supernova SN 2003ma

A. Rest, R. J. Foley, S. Gezari +34

We report the discovery of a supernova (SN) with the highest apparent energy output to date and conclude that it represents an extreme example of the Type IIn subclass. The SN, whi…

SNANA: A Public Software Package for Supernova Analysis

Richard Kessler, Joseph P. Bernstein, David Cinabro +8

We describe a general analysis package for supernova (SN) light curves, called SNANA, that contains a simulation, light curve fitter, and cosmology fitter. The software is designed…

First-year Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II (SDSS-II) Supernova Results: Hubble Diagram and Cosmological Parameters

Richard Kessler, Andrew Becker, David Cinabro +43

We present measurements of the Hubble diagram for 103 Type Ia supernovae (SNe) with redshifts 0.04 < z < 0.42, discovered during the first season (Fall 2005) of the Sloan Digital S…
