Strong Progenitor Age Bias in Supernova Cosmology. III. Progenitor Age as the Physical Origin of the Type Ia Supernova Magnitude Steps with Host Properties

Seunghyun Park, Young-Wook Lee, Chul Chung +4

The standardized magnitude of a type Ia supernova (SN Ia) correlates with host-galaxy properties, and a host mass-step correction is now routinely included in SN Ia luminosity stan…

Testing the effect of progenitor's metallicity on Ni mass and constraining the progenitor scenarios in Type Ia supernovae

Young-Lo Kim, Chul Chung, Yong -Cheol Kim

The analytical model found that the intrinsic variation in the initial metallicity of the Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) progenitor stars () translates into a 25% variat…

The prevalence and influence of circumstellar material around hydrogen-rich supernova progenitors

Rachel J. Bruch, Avishay Gal-Yam, Ofer Yaron +44

Narrow transient emission lines (flash-ionization features) in early supernova (SN) spectra trace the presence of circumstellar material (CSM) around the massive progenitor stars o…

A Uniform Type Ia Supernova Distance Ladder with the Zwicky Transient Facility: Absolute Calibration Based on the Tip of the Red Giant Branch (TRGB) Method

Suhail Dhawan, Ariel Goobar, Joel Johansson +21

The current Cepheid-calibrated distance ladder measurement of is reported to be in tension with the values inferred from the cosmic microwave background (CMB), assuming stand…

Two c's in a pod: Cosmology independent measurement of the Type Ia supernova colour-luminosity relation with a sibling pair

Rahul Biswas, Ariel Goobar, Suhail Dhawan +19

Using Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) observations, we identify a pair of "sibling" Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), i.e., hosted by the same galaxy at z = 0.0541. They exploded within…

The Zwicky Transient Facility Bright Transient Survey. II. A Public Statistical Sample for Exploring Supernova Demographics

Daniel A. Perley, Christoffer Fremling, Jesper Sollerman +34

We present a public catalog of transients from the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) Bright Transient Survey (BTS), a magnitude-limited (m<19 mag in either the g or r filter) survey…

A large fraction of hydrogen-rich supernova progenitors experience elevated mass loss shortly prior to explosion

Rachel J. Bruch, Avishay Gal-Yam, Steve Schulze +43

Spectroscopic detection of narrow emission lines traces the presence of circumstellar mass distributions around massive stars exploding as core-collapse supernovae. Transient emiss…

Early-type Host Galaxies of Type Ia Supernovae. II. Evidence for Luminosity Evolution in Supernova Cosmology

Yijung Kang, Young-Wook Lee, Young-Lo Kim +2

The most direct and strongest evidence for the presence of dark energy is provided by the measurement of galaxy distances using SNe Ia. This result is based on the assumption that…

Environmental Dependence of Type Ia Supernova Luminosities from the YONSEI Supernova Catalog

Young-Lo Kim, Yijung Kang, Young-Wook Lee

There is growing evidence for the dependence of Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) luminosities on their environments. While the impact of this trend on estimating cosmological parameters i…

Environmental Dependence of Type Ia Supernova Luminosities from a Sample without a Local-Global Difference in Host Star Formation

Young-Lo Kim, Mathew Smith, Mark Sullivan +1

It is now established that there is a dependence of the luminosity of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) on environment: SNe Ia in young, star-forming, metal-poor stellar populations appe…

Early-type Host Galaxies of Type Ia Supernovae. I. Evidence for Downsizing

Yijung Kang, Young-Lo Kim, Dongwook Lim +2

Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) cosmology provides the most direct evidence for the presence of dark energy. This result is based on the assumption that the look-back time evolution of S…
