The effect of progenitor age and metallicity on luminosity and 56Ni yield in Type Ia supernovae
D. A. Howell, M. Sullivan, E. F. Brown +23
Timmes, Brown & Truran found that metallicity variations could theoretically account for a 25% variation in the mass of 56Ni synthesized in Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), and thus ac…
PHotometry Assisted Spectral Extraction (PHASE) and identification of SNLS supernovae
S. Baumont, C. Balland, P. Astier +7
Aim: We present new extraction and identification techniques for supernova (SN) spectra developed within the Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS) collaboration. Method: The new spectral…
Discovery of an Unusual Optical Transient with the Hubble Space Telescope
K. Barbary, K. S. Dawson, K. Tokita +27
We present observations of SCP 06F6, an unusual optical transient discovered during the Hubble Space Telescope Cluster Supernova Survey. The transient brightened over a period of ~…
Improved Cosmological Constraints from New, Old and Combined Supernova Datasets
M. Kowalski, D. Rubin, G. Aldering +67
We present a new compilation of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), a new dataset of low-redshift nearby-Hubble-flow SNe and new analysis procedures to work with these heterogeneous compi…
Medium-resolution spectroscopy of FORJ0332-3557: Probing the interstellar medium and stellar populations of a lensed Lyman-break galaxy at z=3.77
Remi A. Cabanac, David Valls-Gabaud, Chris Lidman
We recently reported the discovery of FORJ0332-3557, a lensed Lyman-break galaxy at z=3.77 in a remarkable example of strong galaxy-galaxy gravitational lensing. We present here a…
Type Ia Supernovae Rates and Galaxy Clustering from the CFHT Supernova Legacy Survey
M. L. Graham, C. J. Pritchet, M. Sullivan +25
The Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS) has created a large homogeneous database of intermediate redshift (0.2 < z < 1.0) type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). The…
