Type Ia supernova science 2010-2020

D. A. Howell, A. Conley, M. Della Valle +47

In the next decade Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) will be used to test theories predicting changes in the Dark Energy equation of state with time. Ultimately this requires a dedicated…

Improved Dark Energy Constraints from ~100 New CfA Supernova Type Ia Light Curves

Malcolm Hicken, W. Michael Wood-Vasey, Stephane Blondin +5

We combine the CfA3 supernova Type Ia (SN Ia) sample with samples from the literature to calculate improved constraints on the dark energy equation of state parameter, w. The CfA3…

CfA3: 185 Type Ia Supernova Light Curves from the CfA

Malcolm Hicken, Peter Challis, Saurabh Jha +5

We present multi-band photometry of 185 type-Ia supernovae (SN Ia), with over 11500 observations. These were acquired between 2001 and 2008 at the F. L. Whipple Observatory of the…

Exploring the Outer Solar System with the ESSENCE Supernova Survey

A. C. Becker, K. Arraki, N. A. Kaib +36

We report the discovery and orbit determination of 14 trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) from the ESSENCE Supernova Survey difference imaging dataset. Two additional objects discovered…

Scattered-Light Echoes from the Historical Galactic Supernovae Cassiopeia A and Tycho (SN 1572)

A. Rest, D. L. Welch, N. B. Suntzeff +16

We report the discovery of an extensive system of scattered light echo arclets associated with the recent supernovae in the local neighbourhood of the Milky Way: Tycho (SN 1572) an…
