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…
Improved Cosmological Constraints from New, Old and Combined Supernova Datasets
M. Kowalski, D. Rubin, G. Aldering +67
We present a new compilation of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), a new dataset of low-redshift nearby-Hubble-flow SNe and new analysis procedures to work with these heterogeneous compi…
Supernova progenitors and iron density evolution from SN rate evolution measurements
Guillaume Blanc, Laura Greggio
Using an extensive compilation of literature supernova rate data we study to which extent its evolution constrains the star formation history, the distribution of the type Ia super…
Quantitative comparison between Type Ia supernova spectra at low and high redshifts: A case study
G. Garavini, G. Folatelli, S. Nobili +44
We develop a method to measure the strength of the absorption features in Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) spectra and use it to make a quantitative comparison between the spectra of Type…
The OGLE-II event sc5_2859 : a Classical Nova outburst?
C. Afonso, J. F. Glicenstein, A. Gould +3
The OGLE-II event sc5_2859 was previously identified as the third longest microlensing event ever observed. Additional photometric observations from the EROS (Experience de Recherc…
Spectroscopic Observations and Analysis of the Unusual Type Ia SN 1999ac
The Supernova Cosmology Project, :, G. Garavini +55
We present optical spectra of the peculiar Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 1999ac. The data extend from -15 to +42 days with respect to B-band maximum and reveal an event that is unusual…
