The Carnegie Supernova Project: First Near-Infrared Hubble Diagram to z~0.7

Wendy L. Freedman, Christopher R. Burns, M. M. Phillips +37

The Carnegie Supernova Project (CSP) is designed to measure the luminosity distance for Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) as a function of redshift, and to set observational constraints…

Supernova Shock Breakout from a Red Supergiant

Kevin Schawinski, Stephen Justham, Christian Wolf +21

Massive stars undergo a violent death when the supply of nuclear fuel in their cores is exhausted, resulting in a catastrophic "core-collapse" supernova. Such events are usually on…

New Constraints on , , and w from an Independent Set of Eleven High-Redshift Supernovae Observed with HST

R. A. Knop, G. Aldering, R. Amanullah +45

We report measurements of , , and w from eleven supernovae at z=0.36-0.86 with high-quality lightcurves measured using WFPC-2 on the HST. This is an independent set of hi…

EROS 2 proper motion survey: Constraints on the halo white dwarfs

B. Goldman, C. Afonso, Ch. Alard +9

We are conducting a 377-square-degree proper motion survey in the ~V and I bands in order to determine the cool white dwarf contribution to the Galactic dark matter. Using the 250…

The distant Type Ia supernova rate

R. Pain, S. Fabbro, M. Sullivan +26

We present a measurement of the rate of distant Type Ia supernovae derived using 4 large subsets of data from the Supernova Cosmology Project. Within this fiducial sample, which su…

Observation of Microlensing towards the Galactic Spiral Arms. EROS II 3 year survey

EROS Collaboration

We present an analysis of the light curves of 9.1 million stars observed during three seasons by EROS (Experience de Recherche d'Objets Sombres), in the Galactic plane away from th…
