Cosmological Results from the RAISIN Survey: Using Type Ia Supernovae in the Near Infrared as a Novel Path to Measure the Dark Energy Equation of State

D. O. Jones, K. S. Mandel, R. P. Kirshner +26

Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are more precise standardizable candles when measured in the near-infrared (NIR) than in the optical. With this motivation, from 2012-2017 we embarked o…

Near-infrared K corrections of Type Ia Supernovae and their errors

Luis Boldt, Maximilian Stritzinger, Chris Burns +5

In this paper we use near-infrared (NIR) spectral observations of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) to study the uncertainties inherent to NIR K corrections. To do so, 75 previously publ…

The Very Young Type Ia Supernova 2013dy: Discovery, and Strong Carbon Absorption in Early-Time Spectra

WeiKang Zheng, Jeffrey M. Silverman, Alexei V. Filippenko +20

The Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2013dy in NGC 7250 (d ~ 13.7 Mpc) was discovered by the Lick Observatory Supernova Search. Combined with a prediscovery detection by the Italian Super…

Cosmological Constraints from Measurements of Type Ia Supernovae discovered during the first 1.5 years of the Pan-STARRS1 Survey

A. Rest, D. Scolnic, R. J. Foley +46

We present griz light curves of 146 spectroscopically confirmed Type Ia Supernovae () discovered during the first 1.5 years of the Pan-STARRS1 Medium Deep Survey. T…

Systematic Uncertainties Associated with the Cosmological Analysis of the First Pan-STARRS1 Type Ia Supernova Sample

D. Scolnic, A. Rest, A. Riess +46

We probe the systematic uncertainties from 113 Type Ia supernovae (SNIa) in the Pan-STARRS1 (PS1) sample along with 197 SN Ia from a combination of low-redshift surveys. The compan…

The UV-bright, Slowly Declining Transient PS1-11af as a Partial Tidal Disruption Event

R. Chornock, E. Berger, S. Gezari +34

We present the Pan-STARRS1 discovery of the long-lived and blue transient PS1-11af, which was also detected by GALEX with coordinated observations in the near-ultraviolet (NUV) ban…
