Results from the High-Z Supernova Search Team

Alexei V. Filippenko, Adam G. Riess

We review the use of Type Ia supernovae for cosmological distance determinations. Low-redshift SNe Ia () demonstrate that (a) the Hubble expansion is linear, (b) $H…

Supernova Limits on the Cosmic Equation of State

P. M. Garnavich, S. Jha, P. Challis +18

We use Type Ia supernovae studied by the High-Z Supernova Search Team to constrain the properties of an energy component which may have contributed to accelerating the cosmic expan…

Observational Evidence from Supernovae for an Accelerating Universe and a Cosmological Constant

Adam G. Riess, Alexei V. Filippenko, Peter Challis +17

We present observations of 10 type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) between 0.16 < z < 0.62. With previous data from our High-Z Supernova Search Team, this expanded set of 16 high-redshift s…

The High-Z Supernova Search: Measuring Cosmic Deceleration and Global Cur vature of the Universe Using Type Ia Supernovae

Brian P. Schmidt, Nicholas B. Suntzeff, M. M. Phillips +21

The High-Z Supernova Search is an international collaboration to discover and monitor type Ia supernovae (SN Ia) at with the aim of measuring cosmic deceleration and glob…

Snapshot Distances to Type Ia Supernovae -- All in ``One'' Night's Work

Adam G. Riess, Peter Nugent, Alexei V. Filippenko +2

We present an empirical method which measures the distance to a Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) with a precision of ~ 10% from a single night's data. This method measures the supernova's…

A Local Hubble Bubble from SNe Ia?

Idit Zehavi, Adam G. Riess, Robert P. Kirshner +1

We analyze the monopole in the peculiar velocities of 44 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) to test for a local void. The sample extends from 20 to 300 Mpc/h, with distances, deduced from…
