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…

The Peculiar SN 2005hk: Do Some Type Ia Supernovae Explode as Deflagrations?

M. M. Phillips, W. Li, J. A. Frieman +41

We present extensive u'g'r'i'BVRIYJHKs photometry and optical spectroscopy of SN 2005hk. These data reveal that SN 2005hk was nearly identical in its observed properties to SN 2002…

Report of the Dark Energy Task Force

Andreas Albrecht, Gary Bernstein, Robert Cahn +10

Dark energy appears to be the dominant component of the physical Universe, yet there is no persuasive theoretical explanation for its existence or magnitude. The acceleration of th…
