Supernova Constraints and Systematic Uncertainties from the First 3 Years of the Supernova Legacy Survey

A. Conley, J. Guy, M. Sullivan +33

We combine high redshift Type Ia supernovae from the first 3 years of the Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS) with other supernova (SN) samples, primarily at lower redshifts, to form a…

SNLS3: Constraints on Dark Energy Combining the Supernova Legacy Survey Three Year Data with Other Probes

M. Sullivan, J. Guy, A. Conley +33

We present observational constraints on the nature of dark energy using the Supernova Legacy Survey three year sample (SNLS3) of Guy et al. (2010) and Conley et al. (2011). We use…

The Supernova Legacy Survey 3-year sample: Type Ia Supernovae photometric distances and cosmological constraints

J. Guy, M. Sullivan, A. Conley +31

We present photometric properties and distance measurements of 252 high redshift Type Ia supernovae (0.15 < z < 1.1) discovered during the first three years of the Supernova Legacy…

Supernova Legacy Survey: Using Spectral Signatures To Improve Type Ia Supernovae As Distance Indicators

E. S. Walker, I. M. Hook, M. Sullivan +22

GMOS optical long-slit spectroscopy at the Gemini-North telescope was used to classify targets from the Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS) from July 2005 and May 2006 - May 2008. Durin…

The Dependence of Type Ia Supernova Luminosities on their Host Galaxies

M. Sullivan, A. Conley, D. A. Howell +22

(Abridged) Precision cosmology with Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) makes use of the fact that SN Ia luminosities depend on their light-curve shapes and colours. Using Supernova Legacy…

Gravitational lensing in the Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS)

T. Kronborg, D. Hardin, J. Guy +18

The observed brightness of Type Ia supernovae is affected by gravitational lensing caused by the mass distribution along the line of sight, which introduces an additional dispersio…
