Atmospheric extinction properties above Mauna Kea from the Nearby Supernova Factory spectro-photometric data set
C. Buton, Y. Copin, G. Aldering +30
We present a new atmospheric extinction curve for Mauna Kea spanning 3200--9700 Å. It is the most comprehensive to date, being based on some 4285 standard star spectra obtained on…
A Search for New Candidate Super-Chandrasekhar-Mass Type Ia Supernovae in the Nearby Supernova Factory Dataset
The Nearby Supernova Factory, :, R. Scalzo +32
We present optical photometry and spectroscopy of five type Ia supernovae discovered by the Nearby Supernova Factory selected to be spectroscopic analogues of the candidate super-C…
Wide-Field InfraRed Survey Telescope (WFIRST) Final Report
J. Green, P. Schechter, C. Baltay +51
In December 2010, NASA created a Science Definition Team (SDT) for WFIRST, the Wide Field Infra-Red Survey Telescope, recommended by the Astro 2010 Decadal Survey as the highest pr…
Evolution in the Volumetric Type Ia Supernova Rate from the Supernova Legacy Survey
K. Perrett, M. Sullivan, A. Conley +23
We present a measurement of the volumetric Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) rate (SNR_Ia) as a function of redshift for the first four years of data from the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescop…
Constraining Type Ia supernova models: SN 2011fe as a test case
F. K. Roepke, M. Kromer, I. R. Seitenzahl +42
The nearby supernova SN 2011fe can be observed in unprecedented detail. Therefore, it is an important test case for Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) models, which may bring us closer to u…
