Periodicities in the high-mass X-ray binary system RX J0146.9+6121/LS I+61 235

Gordon E. Sarty, Laszlo L. Kiss, Richard Huziak +10

The high-mass X-ray binary RX J0146.9+6121, with optical counterpart LS I+61 235 (V831 Cas), is an intriguing system on the outskirts of the open cluster NGC 663. It contains the s…

The effect of progenitor age and metallicity on luminosity and 56Ni yield in Type Ia supernovae

D. A. Howell, M. Sullivan, E. F. Brown +23

Timmes, Brown & Truran found that metallicity variations could theoretically account for a 25% variation in the mass of 56Ni synthesized in Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), and thus ac…

Clustering of supernova Ia host galaxies

R. G. Carlberg, M. Sullivan, D. Le Borgne +16

For the first time the cross-correlation between type Ia supernova host galaxies and surrounding field galaxies is measured using the Supernova Legacy Survey sample. Over the z=0.2…

SiFTO: An Empirical Method for Fitting SNe Ia Light Curves

A. Conley, M. Sullivan, E. Y. Hsiao +14

We present SiFTO, a new empirical method for modeling type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) light curves by manipulating a spectral template. We make use of high-redshift SN observations whe…

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…
