The Twins Embedding of Type Ia Supernovae I: The Diversity of Spectra at Maximum Light
K. Boone, G. Aldering, P. Antilogus +34
We study the spectral diversity of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) at maximum light using high signal-to-noise spectrophotometry of 173 SNe Ia from the Nearby Supernova Factory. We dec…
The Twins Embedding of Type Ia Supernovae II: Improving Cosmological Distance Estimates
K. Boone, G. Aldering, P. Antilogus +34
We show how spectra of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) at maximum light can be used to improve cosmological distance estimates. In a companion article, we used manifold learning to bui…
Rates and delay times of type Ia supernovae in the Dark Energy Survey
P. Wiseman, M. Sullivan, M. Smith +87
We use a sample of 809 photometrically classified type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) discovered by the Dark Energy Survey (DES) along with 40415 field galaxies to calculate the rate of SN…
Understanding the extreme luminosity of DES14X2fna
M. Grayling, C. P. Gutiérrez, M. Sullivan +66
We present DES14X2fna, a high-luminosity, fast-declining type IIb supernova (SN IIb) at redshift , detected by the Dark Energy Survey (DES). DES14X2fna is an unusual memb…
The Dark Energy Survey Supernova Program: Modelling selection efficiency and observed core collapse supernova contamination
M. Vincenzi, M. Sullivan, O. Graur +79
The analysis of current and future cosmological surveys of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) at high-redshift depends on the accurate photometric classification of the SN events detected…
From core collapse to superluminous: The rates of massive stellar explosions from the Palomar Transient Factory
C. Frohmaier, C. R. Angus, M. Vincenzi +8
We present measurements of the local core collapse supernova (SN) rate using SN discoveries from the Palomar Transient Factory (PTF). We use a Monte Carlo simulation of hundreds of…
