The Dark Energy Survey Supernova Program: Cosmological biases from supernova photometric classification

M. Vincenzi, M. Sullivan, A. Möller +81

Cosmological analyses of samples of photometrically-identified Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) depend on understanding the effects of 'contamination' from core-collapse and peculiar SN…
