The ESO's VLT Type Ia supernova spectral set of the final two years of SNLS

C. Balland, F. Cellier-Holzem, C. Lidman +24

We aim to present 70 spectra of 68 new high-redshift type Ia supernovae (SNeIa) measured at ESO's VLT during the final two years of operation (2006-2008) of the Supernova Legacy Su…

Euclid: Superluminous supernovae in the Deep Survey

C. Inserra, R. C. Nichol, D. Scovacricchi +31

In the last decade, astronomers have found a new type of supernova called `superluminous supernovae' (SLSNe) due to their high peak luminosity and long light-curves. These hydrogen…

A kilonova as the electromagnetic counterpart to a gravitational-wave source

S. J. Smartt, T. -W. Chen, A. Jerkstrand +118

Gravitational waves were discovered with the detection of binary black hole mergers and they should also be detectable from lower mass neutron star mergers. These are predicted to…

The Discovery of a Gravitationally Lensed Supernova Ia at Redshift 2.22

David Rubin, Brian Hayden, Xiaosheng Huang +32

We present the discovery and measurements of a gravitationally lensed supernova (SN) behind the galaxy cluster MOO J1014+0038. Based on multi-band Hubble Space Telescope and Very L…

Dependence of Type Ia supernova luminosities on their local environment

Matthieu Roman, Delphine Hardin, Marc Betoule +18

We present a fully consistent catalog of local and global properties of host galaxies of 882 Type Ia supernovæ (SNIa) that were selected based on their light-curve properties, span…
