The CHilean Automatic Supernova sEarch (CHASE)
G. Pignata, J. Maza, M. Hamuy +16
The CHASE project started in 2007 with the aim of providing young southern supernovae (SNe) to the Carnegie Supernova Project (CSP) and Millennium Center for Supernova Studies (MCS…
Disentangling age and metallicity in distant unresolved stellar systems
M. Cantiello, E. Brocato, G. Raimondo
We present some results of an observational and theoretical study on unresolved stellar systems based on the Surface Brightness Fluctuations (SBF) technique. It is shown that SBF m…
Integral-field spectroscopy of SLACS lenses
Oliver Czoske, Matteo Barnabe, Leon Koopmans
The combination of two-dimensional kinematics and gravitational lens modelling permits detailed reconstruction of the phase-space structure of early-type galaxies and sets constrai…
Spectral luminosity indicators in SNe Ia - Understanding the R(SiII) line strength ratio and beyond
Stephan Hachinger, Paolo A. Mazzali, Masaomi Tanaka +2
SNe Ia are good distance indicators because the shape of their light curves, which can be measured independently of distance, varies smoothly with luminosity. This suggests that SN…
On the origin of HE0107-5240, the most iron deficient star presently known
Marco Limongi, Alessandro Chieffi, Piercarlo Bonifacio
We show that the "puzzling" chemical composition observed in the extremely metal poor star HE0107-5240 may be naturally explained by the concurrent pollution of at least two supern…
Isochrones and Luminosity Functions for Old White Dwarfs
Harvey B. Richer, Brad Hansen, Marco Limongi +3
Using a new grid of models of cooling white dwarfs, we calculate isochrones and luminosity functions in the Johnson-Kron/Cousins and HST filter sets for systems containing old whit…
