LSST Science Book, Version 2.0

LSST Science Collaboration, Paul A. Abell, Julius Allison +245

A survey that can cover the sky in optical bands over wide fields to faint magnitudes with a fast cadence will enable many of the exciting science opportunities of the next decade.…

Type II-P Supernovae from the SDSS-II Supernova Survey and the Standardized Candle Method

Chris B. D'Andrea, Masao Sako, Benjamin Dilday +24

We apply the Standardized Candle Method (SCM) for Type II Plateau supernovae (SNe II-P), which relates the velocity of the ejecta of a SN to its luminosity during the plateau, to 1…

First-year Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II (SDSS-II) supernova results: consistency and constraints with other intermediate-redshift datasets

H. Lampeitl, R. C. Nichol, H. -J. Seo +28

We present an analysis of the luminosity distances of Type Ia Supernovae from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II (SDSS-II) Supernova Survey in conjunction with other intermediate reds…

SNANA: A Public Software Package for Supernova Analysis

Richard Kessler, Joseph P. Bernstein, David Cinabro +8

We describe a general analysis package for supernova (SN) light curves, called SNANA, that contains a simulation, light curve fitter, and cosmology fitter. The software is designed…

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II: Photometry and Supernova Ia Light Curves from the 2005 data

Jon A. Holtzman, John Marriner, Richard Kessler +29

We present ugriz light curves for 146 spectroscopically confirmed or spectroscopically probable Type Ia supernovae from the 2005 season of the SDSS-II Supernova survey. The light c…

First-year Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II (SDSS-II) Supernova Results: Hubble Diagram and Cosmological Parameters

Richard Kessler, Andrew Becker, David Cinabro +43

We present measurements of the Hubble diagram for 103 Type Ia supernovae (SNe) with redshifts 0.04 < z < 0.42, discovered during the first season (Fall 2005) of the Sloan Digital S…
