The Supernova Type Ia Rate Evolution with SNLS

J. D. Neill, M. Sullivan, D. Balam +36

We present a progress report on a project to derive the evolution of the volumetric supernova Type Ia rate from the Supernova Legacy Survey. Our preliminary estimate of the rate ev…

DEMON: a Proposal for a Satellite-Borne Experiment to study Dark Matter and Dark Energy

Alicia Berciano Alba, Pedro Borges da Silva, Hans Eichelberger +12

We outline a novel satellite mission concept, DEMON, aimed at advancing our comprehension of both dark matter and dark energy, taking full advantage of two complementary methods: w…

Rates and properties of type Ia supernovae as a function of mass and star-formation in their host galaxies

M. Sullivan, D. Le Borgne, C. J. Pritchet +27

(ABRIDGED) We show that Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are formed within both very young and old stellar populations, with observed rates that depend on the stellar mass and mean star…

The Type Ia Supernova Rate at z ~0.5 from the Supernova Legacy Survey

J. D. Neill, M. Sullivan, D. Balam +33

We present a measurement of the distant Type Ia supernova rate derived from the first two years of the Canada -- France -- Hawaii Telescope Supernova Legacy Survey. We observed fou…

The Supernova Legacy Survey: Measurement of Omega_M, Omega_Lambda and w from the First Year Data Set

P. Astier, J. Guy, N. Regnault +39

We present distance measurements to 71 high redshift type Ia supernovae discovered during the first year of the 5-year Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS). These events were detected an…
