The Hubble Space Telescope Cluster Supernova Survey: V. Improving the Dark Energy Constraints Above z>1 and Building an Early-Type-Hosted Supernova Sample
N. Suzuki, D. Rubin, C. Lidman +62
We present ACS, NICMOS, and Keck AO-assisted photometry of 20 Type Ia supernovae SNe Ia from the HST Cluster Supernova Survey. The SNe Ia were discovered over the redshift interval…
An Intensive HST Survey for z>1 Supernovae by Targeting Galaxy Clusters
K. S. Dawson, G. Aldering, R. Amanullah +57
We present a new survey strategy to discover and study high redshift Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). By targeting massive galaxy clusters at 0.9…
The near-infrared luminosity function of cluster galaxies beyond redshift one
V. Strazzullo, P. Rosati, S. A. Stanford +7
We determined the K band luminosity function (LF) of cluster galaxies at redshift z~1.2, using near-infrared images of three X-ray luminous clusters at z=1.11,1.24,1.27. The compos…
Studying Starlight from Distant Galaxies with SIRTF
E. L. Wright, P. E. Eisenhardt, G. G. Fazio
Starlight from distant galaxies () is redshifted into the near infrared band with observed wavelengths from 2-8 m. Most of the light is emitted by stars that have a peak…
