Confirmation of a Star Formation Bias in Type Ia Supernova Distances and its Effect on Measurement of the Hubble Constant
M. Rigault, G. Aldering, M. Kowalski +35
Previously we used the Nearby Supernova Factory sample to show that SNe~Ia having locally star-forming environments are dimmer than SNe~Ia having locally passive environments.Here…
Type Ia Supernova Distance Modulus Bias and Dispersion From K-correction Errors: A Direct Measurement Using Lightcurve Fits to Observed Spectral Time Series
C. Saunders, G. Aldering, P. Antilogus +34
We estimate systematic errors due to K-corrections in standard photometric analyses of high redshift Type Ia supernovae. Errors due to K-correction occur when the spectral template…
A metric space for type Ia supernova spectra
Michele Sasdelli, W. Hillebrandt, G. Aldering +43
We develop a new framework for use in exploring Type Ia Supernova (SN Ia) spectra. Combining Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Partial Least Square analysis (PLS) we are able…
A framework for modeling the detailed optical response of thick, multiple segment, large format sensors for precision astronomy applications
Andrew Rasmussen, Pierre Antilogus, Pierre Astier +11
Near-future astronomical survey experiments, such as LSST, possess system requirements of unprecedented fidelity that span photometry, astrometry and shape transfer. Some of these…
Type Ia supernova bolometric light curves and ejected mass estimates from the Nearby Supernova Factory
R. Scalzo, G. Aldering, P. Antilogus +32
We present a sample of normal type Ia supernovae from the Nearby Supernova Factory dataset with spectrophotometry at sufficiently late phases to estimate the ejected mass using the…
The brighter-fatter effect and pixel correlations in CCD sensors
P. Antilogus, P. Astier, P. Doherty +2
We present evidence that spots imaged using astronomical CCDs do not exactly scale with flux: bright spots tend to be broader than faint ones, using the same illumination pattern.…
