Improved Distances to Type Ia Supernovae with Multicolor Light Curve Shapes: MLCS2k2

Saurabh Jha, Adam G. Riess, Robert P. Kirshner

We present an updated version of the Multicolor Light Curve Shape method to measure distances to type Ia supernovae (SN Ia), incorporating new procedures for K-correction and extin…

New Hubble Space Telescope Discoveries of Type Ia Supernovae at z > 1: Narrowing Constraints on the Early Behavior of Dark Energy

Adam G. Riess, Louis-Gregory Strolger, Stefano Casertano +18

We have discovered 21 new Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and have used them to trace the history of cosmic expansion over the last 10 billion yea…

The Velocity Field of the Local Universe from Measurements of Type Ia Supernovae

Troels Haugboelle, Steen Hannestad, Bjarne Thomsen +3

We present a measurement of the velocity flow of the local universe relative to the CMB rest frame, based on the Jha, Riess & Kirshner (2007) sample of 133 low redshift type Ia sup…

The Peculiar SN 2005hk: Do Some Type Ia Supernovae Explode as Deflagrations?

M. M. Phillips, W. Li, J. A. Frieman +41

We present extensive u'g'r'i'BVRIYJHKs photometry and optical spectroscopy of SN 2005hk. These data reveal that SN 2005hk was nearly identical in its observed properties to SN 2002…

Late-Time Spectroscopy of SN 2002cx: The Prototype of a New Subclass of Type Ia Supernovae

Saurabh Jha, David Branch, Ryan Chornock +5

We present Keck optical spectra of SN 2002cx, the most peculiar known Type Ia supernova (SN Ia), taken 227 and 277 days past maximum light. Astonishingly, the spectra are not domin…

Spectropolarimetry of the Peculiar Type Ia SN 2005hk

Ryan Chornock, Alexei V. Filippenko, David Branch +3

We present Keck spectropolarimetry of the unusual type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2005hk several days before maximum light. An analysis of the high signal-to-noise-ratio total-flux spect…
