Improved cosmological constraints from a joint analysis of the SDSS-II and SNLS supernova samples

M. Betoule, R. Kessler, J. Guy +60

We present cosmological constraints from a joint analysis of type Ia supernova (SN Ia) observations obtained by the SDSS-II and SNLS collaborations. The data set includes several l…

Improved Photometric Calibration of the SNLS and the SDSS Supernova Surveys

M. Betoule, J. Marriner, N. Regnault +13

We present a combined photometric calibration of the SNLS and the SDSS supernova survey, which results from a joint effort of the SDSS and the SNLS collaborations. We deliver fluxe…

Testing Models of Intrinsic Brightness Variations in Type Ia Supernovae, and their Impact on Measuring Cosmological Parameters

Richard Kessler, Julien Guy, John Marriner +8

For spectroscopically confirmed Type Ia supernovae we evaluate models of intrinsic brightness variations with detailed data/Monte Carlo comparisons of the dispersion in the followi…

A Precision Photometric Comparison between SDSS-II and CSP Type Ia Supernova Data

J. Mosher, M. Sako, L. Corlies +10

Consistency between Carnegie Supernova Project (CSP) and SDSS-II supernova (SN) survey ugri measurements has been evaluated by comparing SDSS and CSP photometry for nine spectrosco…

A More General Model for the Intrinsic Scatter in Type Ia Supernova Distance Moduli

John Marriner, J. P. Bernstein, Richard Kessler +7

We describe a new formalism to fit the parameters and that are used in the SALT2 model to determine the standard magnitudes of Type Ia supernovae. The new formalism describ…
