The HST See Change Program: I. Survey Design, Pipeline, and Supernova Discoveries

Brian Hayden, David Rubin, Kyle Boone +53

The See Change survey was designed to make cosmological measurements by efficiently discovering high-redshift Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) and improving cluster mass measureme…

SUGAR: An improved empirical model of Type Ia Supernovae based on spectral features

P. -F. Léget, E. Gangler, F. Mondon +40

Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) are widely used to measure the expansion of the Universe. Improving distance measurements of SNe Ia is one technique to better constrain the acceleratio…

SNEMO: Improved Empirical Models for Type Ia Supernovae

C. Saunders, G. Aldering, P. Antilogus +39

Type Ia supernova cosmology depends on the ability to fit and standardize observations of supernova magnitudes with an empirical model. We present here a series of new models of Ty…

Strong Dependence of Type Ia Supernova Standardization on the Local Specific Star Formation Rate

M. Rigault, V. Brinnel, G. Aldering +40

As part of an on-going effort to identify, understand and correct for astrophysics biases in the standardization of Type Ia supernovae (SNIa) for cosmology, we have statistically c…

Correcting for peculiar velocities of Type Ia Supernovae in clusters of galaxies

P. -F. Léget, M. V. Pruzhinskaya, A. Ciulli +43

Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) are widely used to measure the expansion of the Universe. To perform such measurements the luminosity and cosmological redshift () of the SNe Ia have…

Understanding Type Ia supernovae through their U-band spectra

J. Nordin, G. Aldering, P. Antilogus +39

Context. Observations of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) can be used to derive accurate cosmological distances through empirical standardization techniques. Despite this success neithe…

The Discovery of a Gravitationally Lensed Supernova Ia at Redshift 2.22

David Rubin, Brian Hayden, Xiaosheng Huang +32

We present the discovery and measurements of a gravitationally lensed supernova (SN) behind the galaxy cluster MOO J1014+0038. Based on multi-band Hubble Space Telescope and Very L…

The Extinction Properties of and Distance to the Highly Reddened Type Ia Supernova SN 2012cu

X. Huang, Z. Raha, G. Aldering +39

Correction of Type Ia Supernova brightnesses for extinction by dust has proven to be a vexing problem. Here we study the dust foreground to the highly reddened SN 2012cu, which is…

Improving Cosmological Distance Measurements Using Twin Type Ia Supernovae

H. K. Fakhouri, K. Boone, G. Aldering +41

We introduce a method for identifying "twin" Type Ia supernovae, and using them to improve distance measurements. This novel approach to Type Ia supernova standardization is made p…

UNITY: Confronting Supernova Cosmology's Statistical and Systematic Uncertainties in a Unified Bayesian Framework

David Rubin, Greg Aldering, Kyle Barbary +12

While recent supernova cosmology research has benefited from improved measurements, current analysis approaches are not statistically optimal and will prove insufficient for future…

Confirmation of a Star Formation Bias in Type Ia Supernova Distances and its Effect on Measurement of the Hubble Constant

M. Rigault, G. Aldering, M. Kowalski +35

Previously we used the Nearby Supernova Factory sample to show that SNe~Ia having locally star-forming environments are dimmer than SNe~Ia having locally passive environments.Here…

Polarized e-p Elastic Scattering in the Collider Frame

C. Sofiatti, T. W. Donnelly

Double polarization elastic e-p cross sections and asymmetries are considered in collider kinematics. Covariant expressions are derived for the general situation involving crossed…
