Subluminous Type Ia Supernovae at High Redshift from the Supernova Legacy Survey

S. Gonzalez-Gaitan, K. Perrett, M. Sullivan +15

The rate evolution of subluminous Type Ia Supernovae is presented using data from the Supernova Legacy Survey. This sub-sample represents the faint and rapidly-declining light-curv…

The Supernova Legacy Survey 3-year sample: Type Ia Supernovae photometric distances and cosmological constraints

J. Guy, M. Sullivan, A. Conley +31

We present photometric properties and distance measurements of 252 high redshift Type Ia supernovae (0.15 < z < 1.1) discovered during the first three years of the Supernova Legacy…

Supernova Legacy Survey: Using Spectral Signatures To Improve Type Ia Supernovae As Distance Indicators

E. S. Walker, I. M. Hook, M. Sullivan +22

GMOS optical long-slit spectroscopy at the Gemini-North telescope was used to classify targets from the Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS) from July 2005 and May 2006 - May 2008. Durin…

Real-time Analysis and Selection Biases in the Supernova Legacy Survey

K. Perrett, D. Balam, M. Sullivan +13

The Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS) has produced a high-quality, homogeneous sample of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) out to redshifts greater than z=1. In its first four years of full…

The Dependence of Type Ia Supernova Luminosities on their Host Galaxies

M. Sullivan, A. Conley, D. A. Howell +22

(Abridged) Precision cosmology with Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) makes use of the fact that SN Ia luminosities depend on their light-curve shapes and colours. Using Supernova Legacy…

Constraining dark matter halo properties using lensed SNLS supernovae

J. Jonsson, M. Sullivan, I. Hook +7

This paper exploits the gravitational magnification of SNe Ia to measure properties of dark matter haloes. The magnification of individual SNe Ia can be computed using observed pro…
