The Rise-Time of Normal and Subluminous Type Ia Supernovae

S. Gonzalez-Gaitan, A. Conley, F. B. Bianco +21

We calculate the average stretch-corrected rise-time of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) in the Supernova Legacy Survey. We use the aggregate lightcurves of spectroscopic and photometri…

Photometric selection of Type Ia supernovae in the Supernova Legacy Survey

G. Bazin, V. Ruhlmann-Kleider, N. Palanque-Delabrouille +23

We present a sample of 485 photometrically identified Type Ia supernova candidates mined from the first three years of data of the CFHT SuperNova Legacy Survey (SNLS). The images w…

Constraining Type Ia Supernovae progenitors from three years of SNLS data

F. B. Bianco, D. A. Howell, M. Sullivan +20

While it is generally accepted that Type Ia supernovae are the result of the explosion of a carbon-oxygen White Dwarf accreting mass in a binary system, the details of their genesi…

Supernova Constraints and Systematic Uncertainties from the First 3 Years of the Supernova Legacy Survey

A. Conley, J. Guy, M. Sullivan +33

We combine high redshift Type Ia supernovae from the first 3 years of the Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS) with other supernova (SN) samples, primarily at lower redshifts, to form a…

SNLS3: Constraints on Dark Energy Combining the Supernova Legacy Survey Three Year Data with Other Probes

M. Sullivan, J. Guy, A. Conley +33

We present observational constraints on the nature of dark energy using the Supernova Legacy Survey three year sample (SNLS3) of Guy et al. (2010) and Conley et al. (2011). We use…
