The Hubble Space Telescope Cluster Supernova Survey: VI. The Volumetric Type Ia Supernova Rate

K. Barbary, G. Aldering, R. Amanullah +40

We present a measurement of the volumetric Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) rate out to z ~ 1.6 from the Hubble Space Telescope Cluster Supernova Survey. In observations spanning 189 orbi…

Photometric selection of Type Ia supernovae in the Supernova Legacy Survey

G. Bazin, V. Ruhlmann-Kleider, N. Palanque-Delabrouille +23

We present a sample of 485 photometrically identified Type Ia supernova candidates mined from the first three years of data of the CFHT SuperNova Legacy Survey (SNLS). The images w…

Constraining Type Ia Supernovae progenitors from three years of SNLS data

F. B. Bianco, D. A. Howell, M. Sullivan +20

While it is generally accepted that Type Ia supernovae are the result of the explosion of a carbon-oxygen White Dwarf accreting mass in a binary system, the details of their genesi…

The reddening law of Type Ia Supernovae: separating intrinsic variability from dust using equivalent widths

N. Chotard, E. Gangler, G. Aldering +28

We employ 76 type Ia supernovae with optical spectrophotometry within 2.5 days of B-band maximum light obtained by the Nearby Supernova Factory to derive the impact of Si and Ca fe…

Keck Observations of the Young Metal-Poor Host Galaxy of the Super-Chandrasekhar-Mass Type Ia Supernova SN 2007if

M. Childress, G. Aldering, C. Aragon +28

We present Keck LRIS spectroscopy and -band photometry of the metal-poor, low-luminosity host galaxy of the super-Chandrasekhar mass Type Ia supernova SN 2007if. Deep imaging of…
