Spectroscopy of High-Redshift Supernovae from the ESSENCE Project: The First Four Years
R. J. Foley, T. Matheson, S. Blondin +23
We present the results of spectroscopic observations from the ESSENCE high-redshift supernova (SN) survey during its first four years of operation. This sample includes spectra of…
Ejecta, Dust, and Synchrotron Radiation in B0540-69.3: A More Crab-Like Remnant than the Crab
Brian J. Williams, Kazimierz J. Borkowski, Stephen P. Reynolds +10
We present near and mid-infrared observations of the pulsar-wind nebula (PWN) B0540-69.3 and its associated supernova remnant made with the {\it Spitzer Space Telescope}. We report…
Exploring the Outer Solar System with the ESSENCE Supernova Survey
A. C. Becker, K. Arraki, N. A. Kaib +36
We report the discovery and orbit determination of 14 trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) from the ESSENCE Supernova Survey difference imaging dataset. Two additional objects discovered…
Scattered-Light Echoes from the Historical Galactic Supernovae Cassiopeia A and Tycho (SN 1572)
A. Rest, D. L. Welch, N. B. Suntzeff +16
We report the discovery of an extensive system of scattered light echo arclets associated with the recent supernovae in the local neighbourhood of the Milky Way: Tycho (SN 1572) an…
LSST: from Science Drivers to Reference Design and Anticipated Data Products
Željko Ivezić, Steven M. Kahn, J. Anthony Tyson +310
(Abridged) We describe here the most ambitious survey currently planned in the optical, the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST). A vast array of science will be enabled by a sin…
Improved Cosmological Constraints from New, Old and Combined Supernova Datasets
M. Kowalski, D. Rubin, G. Aldering +67
We present a new compilation of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), a new dataset of low-redshift nearby-Hubble-flow SNe and new analysis procedures to work with these heterogeneous compi…
