A Simulation Based Inference Approach to Modelling of Type Ia Supernova Populations
B. Popovic, M. Grayling, M. O'Callaghan +12
Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) are prominent cosmological probes, utilising a standardisation process to reduce their observed scatter to mag. A growing number of models se…
BayeSN Dovekie: Joint Photometric Cross-calibration and SED Modelling of Type Ia Supernovae
M. Grayling, B. Popovic, M. Ginolin +2
We present a new framework for BayeSN, the hierarchical Bayesian SED model for type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), incorporating cross-calibration of samples observed across heterogeneous…
Still Accelerating: Type Ia supernova cosmology is robust to host galaxy age evolution
Phil Wiseman, Brodie Popovic, Mark Sullivan +14
Type Ia supernovae are a cornerstone of modern cosmology, providing first evidence for cosmic acceleration and new tests of dark energy. Son et al. 2025 (S25) claim a strong redshi…
Old Universe, Young SNe Ia: A Statistical Analysis of Type Ia Supernova Progenitor Age from 6,983 TITAN Host Galaxies, and Implications for Cosmology
Yukei Murakami, Jack Tweddle, Phil Wiseman +17
Correlations between standardized Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) luminosities and host-galaxy properties are routinely modeled to avoid bias in cosmological parameter inference. A recen…
TITAN DR1: An Improved, Validated, and Systematically-Controlled Recalibration of ATLAS Photometry toward Type Ia Supernova Cosmology
Elijah G. Marlin, Yukei S. Murakami, Dillon Brout +14
ATLAS (Asteroid Terrestrial Last Alert System) is a time-domain survey using four telescopes, covering the entire sky. It has observed over 10,000 spectroscopically confirmed Type…
BayeSN and SALT: A Comparison of Dust Inference Across SN Ia Light-curve Models with DES5YR
Matthew Grayling, Brodie Popovic
In recent years there has been significant debate around the impact of dust on SNe Ia, a major source of uncertainty in cosmological analyses. We perform the first validation of th…
