Determining the Motion of the Local Group Using SN Ia Light Curve Shapes
Adam G. Riess, William H. Press, Robert P. Kirshner
We have measured our Galaxy's motion relative to distant galaxies in which type Ia supernovae (SN Ia) have been observed. The effective recession velocity of this sample is 7000 km…

Using SN Ia Light Curve Shapes to Measure The Hubble Constant
Adam G. Riess, William H. Press, Robert P. Kirshner
We present an empirical method which uses visual band light curve shapes (LCS) to estimate the luminosity of type Ia supernovae (SN Ia). This method is first applied to a ``trainin…
