The 2010 very high energy gamma-ray flare & 10 years of multi-wavelength observations of M 87

The H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, A. Abramowski +442

Abridged: The giant radio galaxy M 87 with its proximity, famous jet, and very massive black hole provides a unique opportunity to investigate the origin of very high energy (VHE;…

Type Ia Supernova Carbon Footprints

R. C. Thomas, G. Aldering, P. Antilogus +32

We present convincing evidence of unburned carbon at photospheric velocities in new observations of 5 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) obtained by the Nearby Supernova Factory. These SN…

Photometric selection of Type Ia supernovae in the Supernova Legacy Survey

G. Bazin, V. Ruhlmann-Kleider, N. Palanque-Delabrouille +23

We present a sample of 485 photometrically identified Type Ia supernova candidates mined from the first three years of data of the CFHT SuperNova Legacy Survey (SNLS). The images w…

Constraining Type Ia Supernovae progenitors from three years of SNLS data

F. B. Bianco, D. A. Howell, M. Sullivan +20

While it is generally accepted that Type Ia supernovae are the result of the explosion of a carbon-oxygen White Dwarf accreting mass in a binary system, the details of their genesi…

Supernova Constraints and Systematic Uncertainties from the First 3 Years of the Supernova Legacy Survey

A. Conley, J. Guy, M. Sullivan +33

We combine high redshift Type Ia supernovae from the first 3 years of the Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS) with other supernova (SN) samples, primarily at lower redshifts, to form a…

SNLS3: Constraints on Dark Energy Combining the Supernova Legacy Survey Three Year Data with Other Probes

M. Sullivan, J. Guy, A. Conley +33

We present observational constraints on the nature of dark energy using the Supernova Legacy Survey three year sample (SNLS3) of Guy et al. (2010) and Conley et al. (2011). We use…

The reddening law of Type Ia Supernovae: separating intrinsic variability from dust using equivalent widths

N. Chotard, E. Gangler, G. Aldering +28

We employ 76 type Ia supernovae with optical spectrophotometry within 2.5 days of B-band maximum light obtained by the Nearby Supernova Factory to derive the impact of Si and Ca fe…

Keck Observations of the Young Metal-Poor Host Galaxy of the Super-Chandrasekhar-Mass Type Ia Supernova SN 2007if

M. Childress, G. Aldering, C. Aragon +28

We present Keck LRIS spectroscopy and -band photometry of the metal-poor, low-luminosity host galaxy of the super-Chandrasekhar mass Type Ia supernova SN 2007if. Deep imaging of…
