Exploring the Outer Solar System with the ESSENCE Supernova Survey
A. C. Becker, K. Arraki, N. A. Kaib +36
We report the discovery and orbit determination of 14 trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) from the ESSENCE Supernova Survey difference imaging dataset. Two additional objects discovered…
Spectral Identification of an Ancient Supernova using Light Echoes in the LMC
A. Rest, T. Matheson, S. Blondin +26
We report the successful identification of the type of the supernova responsible for the supernova remnant SNR 0509-675 in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) using Gemini spectra of…
Observational Constraints on the Nature of the Dark Energy: First Cosmological Results from the ESSENCE Supernova Survey
W. M. Wood-Vasey, G. Miknaitis, C. W. Stubbs +34
We present constraints on the dark energy equation-of-state parameter, w=P/(rho c^2), using 60 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) from the ESSENCE supernova survey. We derive a set of con…
Lightcurves of Type Ia Supernovae from Near the Time of Explosion
Arti Garg, Christopher W. Stubbs, Peter Challis +18
We present a set of 11 type Ia supernova (SN Ia) lightcurves with dense, pre-maximum sampling. These supernovae (SNe), in galaxies behind the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), were dis…
Echoes from Ancient Supernovae in the Large Magellanic Cloud
A. Rest, N. B. Suntzeff, K. Olsen +13
In principle, the light from historical supernovae could still be visible as scattered-light echoes even centuries later. However, while echoes have been discovered around some nea…
Testing LMC Microlensing Scenarios: The Discrimination Power of the SuperMACHO Microlensing Survey
A. Rest, C. Stubbs, A. C. Becker +18
Characterizing the nature and spatial distribution of the lensing objects that produce the previously measured microlensing optical depth toward the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) re…
