Initial Hubble Diagram Results from the Nearby Supernova Factory
S. Bailey, G. Aldering, P. Antilogus +22
The use of Type Ia supernovae as distance indicators led to the discovery of the accelerating expansion of the universe a decade ago. Now that large second generation surveys have…
Type Ia Supernovae Rates and Galaxy Clustering from the CFHT Supernova Legacy Survey
M. L. Graham, C. J. Pritchet, M. Sullivan +25
The Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS) has created a large homogeneous database of intermediate redshift (0.2 < z < 1.0) type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). The…
SALT2: using distant supernovae to improve the use of Type Ia supernovae as distance indicators
J. Guy, P. Astier, S. Baumont +22
We present an empirical model of Type Ia supernovae spectro-photometric evolution with time. The model is built using a large data set including light-curves and spectra of both ne…
The Supernova Type Ia Rate Evolution with SNLS
J. D. Neill, M. Sullivan, D. Balam +36
We present a progress report on a project to derive the evolution of the volumetric supernova Type Ia rate from the Supernova Legacy Survey. Our preliminary estimate of the rate ev…
The Rise Time of Type Ia Supernovae from the Supernova Legacy Survey
A. Conley, D. A. Howell, A. Howes +24
We compare the rise times of nearby and distant Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) as a test for evolution using 73 high-redshift spectroscopically-confirmed SNe Ia from the first two yea…
Rates and properties of type Ia supernovae as a function of mass and star-formation in their host galaxies
M. Sullivan, D. Le Borgne, C. J. Pritchet +27
(ABRIDGED) We show that Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are formed within both very young and old stellar populations, with observed rates that depend on the stellar mass and mean star…
