The detection efficiency of type Ia supernovae from the Zwicky Transient Facility: Limits on the intrinsic rate of early flux excesses

M. R. Magee, C. Cuddy, K. Maguire +8

Samples of young type Ia supernovae have shown `early excess' emission in a few cases. Similar excesses are predicted by some explosion and progenitor scenarios and hence can provi…

Constraining Type Ia supernova explosions and early flux excesses with the Zwicky Transient Factory

M. Deckers, K. Maguire, M. R. Magee +14

In the new era of time-domain surveys Type Ia supernovae are being caught sooner after explosion, which has exposed significant variation in their early light curves. Two driving f…

The Twins Embedding of Type Ia Supernovae I: The Diversity of Spectra at Maximum Light

K. Boone, G. Aldering, P. Antilogus +34

We study the spectral diversity of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) at maximum light using high signal-to-noise spectrophotometry of 173 SNe Ia from the Nearby Supernova Factory. We dec…

The Twins Embedding of Type Ia Supernovae II: Improving Cosmological Distance Estimates

K. Boone, G. Aldering, P. Antilogus +34

We show how spectra of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) at maximum light can be used to improve cosmological distance estimates. In a companion article, we used manifold learning to bui…

The HST See Change Program: I. Survey Design, Pipeline, and Supernova Discoveries

Brian Hayden, David Rubin, Kyle Boone +53

The See Change survey was designed to make cosmological measurements by efficiently discovering high-redshift Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) and improving cluster mass measureme…

The Zwicky Transient Facility Bright Transient Survey. II. A Public Statistical Sample for Exploring Supernova Demographics

Daniel A. Perley, Christoffer Fremling, Jesper Sollerman +34

We present a public catalog of transients from the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) Bright Transient Survey (BTS), a magnitude-limited (m<19 mag in either the g or r filter) survey…
