The CHilean Automatic Supernova sEarch (CHASE)
G. Pignata, J. Maza, M. Hamuy +16
The CHASE project started in 2007 with the aim of providing young southern supernovae (SNe) to the Carnegie Supernova Project (CSP) and Millennium Center for Supernova Studies (MCS…
Optical and IR observations of SN 2002dj: some possible common properties of fast expanding SNe Ia
G. Pignata, S. Benetti, P. A. Mazzali +17
As part of the European Supernova Collaboration we obtained extensive photometry and spectroscopy of the type Ia SN 2002dj covering epochs from 11 days before to nearly two years a…
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…
Constraining Cosmic Evolution of Type Ia Supernovae
Ryan J. Foley, A. V. Filippenko, C. Aguilera +27
We present the first large-scale effort of creating composite spectra of high-redshift type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) and comparing them to low-redshift counterparts. Through the ESSE…
The ESSENCE Supernova Survey: Survey Optimization, Observations, and Supernova Photometry
G. Miknaitis, G. Pignata, A. Rest +33
We describe the implementation and optimization of the ESSENCE supernova survey, which we have undertaken to measure the equation of state parameter of the dark energy. We present…
Using Line Profiles to Test the Fraternity of Type Ia Supernovae at High and Low Redshifts
S. Blondin, L. Dessart, B. Leibundgut +34
Using archival data of low-redshift (z < 0.01) Type Ia supernovae (SN Ia) and recent observations of high-redshift (0.16 < z <0.64; Matheson et al. 2005) SN Ia, we study the "unifo…
