Optical and IR observations of SN 2002dj: some possible common properties of fast expanding SNe Ia

G. Pignata, S. Benetti, P. A. Mazzali +17

As part of the European Supernova Collaboration we obtained extensive photometry and spectroscopy of the type Ia SN 2002dj covering epochs from 11 days before to nearly two years a…

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…

Light curves of five type Ia supernovae at intermediate redshift

R. Amanullah, V. Stanishev, A. Goobar +14

We present multi-band light curves and distances for five type Ia supernovae at intermediate redshifts, 0.18<z<0.27. Three telescopes on the Canary Island of La Palma, INT, NOT and…

SN 2003du: 480 days in the Life of a Normal Type Ia Supernova

V. Stanishev, A. Goobar, S. Benetti +29

An extensive set of optical and NIR photometry and low-resolution spectra the Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2003du was obtained using a number of facilities. The observations started 1…

Quantitative comparison between Type Ia supernova spectra at low and high redshifts: A case study

G. Garavini, G. Folatelli, S. Nobili +44

We develop a method to measure the strength of the absorption features in Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) spectra and use it to make a quantitative comparison between the spectra of Type…

Type Ia SNe along redshift: the R(Si II) ratio and the expansion velocities in intermediate z supernovae

G. Altavilla, P. Ruiz-Lapuente, A. Balastegui +17

We study intermediate--z SNe Ia using the empirical physical diagrams which enable to learn about those SNe explosions. This information can be very useful to reduce systematic unc…
