Improving Cosmological Distance Measurements Using Twin Type Ia Supernovae
H. K. Fakhouri, K. Boone, G. Aldering +41
We introduce a method for identifying "twin" Type Ia supernovae, and using them to improve distance measurements. This novel approach to Type Ia supernova standardization is made p…
The Massive and Distant Clusters of WISE Survey: MOO J1142+1527, A 10 M Galaxy Cluster at z=1.19
Anthony H. Gonzalez, Bandon Decker, Mark Brodwin +19
We present confirmation of the cluster MOO J1142+1527, a massive galaxy cluster discovered as part of the Massive and Distant Clusters of WISE Survey. The cluster is confirmed to l…
An Extreme Starburst in Close Proximity to the Central Galaxy of a Rich Galaxy Cluster at z=1.7
Tracy Webb, Allison Noble, Andrew DeGroot +19
We have discovered an optically rich galaxy cluster at z=1.7089 with star formation occurring in close proximity to the central galaxy. The system, SpARCS104922.6+564032.5, was det…
Two Type Ia Supernovae at Redshift ~2 : Improved Classification and Redshift Determination with Medium-band Infrared Imaging
Steven A. Rodney, Adam G. Riess, Daniel M. Scolnic +9
We present two supernovae (SNe) discovered with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) in the Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey (CANDELS), an HST multi-cycle…
UNITY: Confronting Supernova Cosmology's Statistical and Systematic Uncertainties in a Unified Bayesian Framework
David Rubin, Greg Aldering, Kyle Barbary +12
While recent supernova cosmology research has benefited from improved measurements, current analysis approaches are not statistically optimal and will prove insufficient for future…
