Carnegie Supernova Project-I and -II: Measurements of using Cepheid, TRGB, and SBF Distance Calibration to Type Ia Supernovae

Syed A. Uddin, Christopher R. Burns, Mark M. Phillips +44

We present an analysis of Type Ia Supernovae (SNe~Ia) from both the Carnegie Supernova Project~I (CSP-I) and II (CSP-II), and extend the Hubble diagram from the optical to the near…
