Initial Hubble Diagram Results from the Nearby Supernova Factory
S. Bailey, G. Aldering, P. Antilogus +22
The use of Type Ia supernovae as distance indicators led to the discovery of the accelerating expansion of the universe a decade ago. Now that large second generation surveys have…
Nearby Supernova Factory Observations of SN 2006D: On Sporadic Carbon Signatures in Early Type Ia Supernova Spectra
The Nearby Supernova Factory, :, R. C. Thomas +27
We present four spectra of the Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2006D extending from -7 to +13 days with respect to B-band maximum. The spectra include the strongest signature of unburned…
Visible and Near-Infrared Spectrophotometry of the Deep Impact Ejecta of Comet 9P/Tempel 1
Klaus W. Hodapp, Greg Aldering, Karen J. Meech +12
We have obtained optical spectrophotometry of the evolution of comet 9P/Tempel 1 after the impact of the Deep Impact probe, using the Supernova Integral Field Spectrograph (SNIFS)…
Nearby Supernova Factory Observations of SN 2005gj: Another Type Ia Supernova in a Massive Circumstellar Envelope
The Nearby Supernova Factory Collaboration, G. Aldering, P. Antilogus +24
We report Nearby Supernova Factory observations of SN 2005gj, the second confirmed case of a "hybrid" Type Ia/IIn supernova. Our early-phase photometry of SN 2005gj shows that the…
Probing unexplored territories with MUSE: a second generation instrument for the VLT
R. Bacon, S. Bauer, P. Boehm +57
The Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) is a second-generation VLT panoramic integral-field spectrograph under preliminary design study. MUSE has a field of 1x1 arcmin**2 samp…
The Nearby Supernova Factory
W. M. Wood-Vasey, G. Aldering, B. C. Lee +19
The Nearby Supernova Factory (SNfactory) is an ambitious project to find and study in detail approximately 300 nearby Type Ia supernovae (SNe~Ia) at redshifts 0.03<z<0.08. This pro…
