Infrared Surface Brightness Fluctuation Distances for MASSIVE and Type Ia Supernova Host Galaxies
Joseph B. Jensen, John P. Blakeslee, Chung-Pei Ma +9
We measured high-quality surface brightness fluctuation (SBF) distances for a sample of 63 massive early-type galaxies using the WFC3/IR camera on the Hubble Space Telescope. The m…
Kepler K2 Observations of the Intermediate Polar FO Aquarii
M. R. Kennedy, P. Garnavich, E. Breedt +5
We present photometry of the intermediate polar FO Aquarii obtained as part of the K2 mission using the Kepler space telescope. The amplitude spectrum of the data confirms the orbi…
The Carnegie Supernova Project: First Near-Infrared Hubble Diagram to z~0.7
Wendy L. Freedman, Christopher R. Burns, M. M. Phillips +37
The Carnegie Supernova Project (CSP) is designed to measure the luminosity distance for Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) as a function of redshift, and to set observational constraints…
Supernovae in Early-Type Galaxies: Directly Connecting Age and Metallicity with Type Ia Luminosity
J. S. Gallagher, P. M. Garnavich, N. Caldwell +5
We have obtained optical spectra of 29 early-type (E/S0) galaxies that hosted type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). We have measured absorption-line strengths and compared them to a grid of…
The Luminous and Carbon-Rich Supernova 2006gz: A Double Degenerate Merger?
M. Hicken, P. M. Garnavich, J. L. Prieto +4
Spectra and light curves of SN 2006gz show the strongest signature of unburned carbon and one of the slowest fading light curves ever seen in a type Ia event (Delta m_15 = 0.69 +/-…
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II Supernova Survey: Technical Summary
Joshua A. Frieman, B. Bassett, A. Becker +98
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II (SDSS-II) has embarked on a multi-year project to identify and measure light curves for intermediate-redshift (0.05 < z < 0.35) Type Ia supernovae (…
