LSST: from Science Drivers to Reference Design and Anticipated Data Products
Željko Ivezić, Steven M. Kahn, J. Anthony Tyson +310
(Abridged) We describe here the most ambitious survey currently planned in the optical, the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST). A vast array of science will be enabled by a sin…
Hubble Space Telescope and Ground-Based Observations of Type Ia Supernovae at Redshift 0.5: Cosmological Implications
A. Clocchiatti, B. Schmidt, A. Filippenko +26
We present observations of the Type Ia supernovae (SNe) 1999M, 1999N, 1999Q, 1999S, and 1999U, at redshift z~0.5. They were discovered in early 1999 with the 4.0~m Blanco telescope…
Tests of the Accelerating Universe with Near-Infrared Observations of a High-Redshift Type Ia Supernova
Adam G. Riess, Alexei V. Filippenko, Michael C. Liu +25
We have measured the rest-frame B,V, and I-band light curves of a high-redshift type Ia supernova (SN Ia), SN 1999Q (z=0.46), using HST and ground-based near-infrared detectors. A…
SN1997cy/GRB970514 - A New Piece in the GRB Puzzle?
Lisa M. Germany, David J. Reiss, Elaine M. Sadler +2
We present observations of SN1997cy, a supernova discovered as part of the Mount Stromlo Abell Cluster SN Search, which does not easily fit into the traditional classification sche…
Supernova Limits on the Cosmic Equation of State
P. M. Garnavich, S. Jha, P. Challis +18
We use Type Ia supernovae studied by the High-Z Supernova Search Team to constrain the properties of an energy component which may have contributed to accelerating the cosmic expan…
Observational Evidence from Supernovae for an Accelerating Universe and a Cosmological Constant
Adam G. Riess, Alexei V. Filippenko, Peter Challis +17
We present observations of 10 type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) between 0.16 < z < 0.62. With previous data from our High-Z Supernova Search Team, this expanded set of 16 high-redshift s…
The High-Z Supernova Search: Measuring Cosmic Deceleration and Global Cur vature of the Universe Using Type Ia Supernovae
Brian P. Schmidt, Nicholas B. Suntzeff, M. M. Phillips +21
The High-Z Supernova Search is an international collaboration to discover and monitor type Ia supernovae (SN Ia) at with the aim of measuring cosmic deceleration and glob…
The Mount Stromlo Abell Cluster Supernova Search
David J. Reiss, Lisa M. Germany, Brian P. Schmidt +1
We have initiated a three-year project to find supernovae (SNe) in a well-defined sample of high-density southern Abell clusters with redshifts . These observations will…
Constraints on Cosmological Models from Hubble Space Telescope Observations of High-z Supernovae
P. M. Garnavich, R. P. Kirshner, P. Challis +17
We have coordinated Hubble Space Telescope photometry with ground-based discovery for three supernovae: two SN Ia near z~0.5 (SN 1997ce, SN 1997cj) and a third event at z=0.97 (SN…
Real-time Detection of Gravitational Microlensing
M. R. Pratt, C. Alcock, R. A. Allsman +17
Real-time detection of microlensing has moved from proof of concept in 1994 to a steady stream of events this year. Global dissemination of these events by the MACHO and OGLE colla…
