Carnegie Supernova Project-II: Extending the Near-Infrared Hubble Diagram for Type Ia Supernovae to
M. M. Phillips, Carlos Contreras, E. Y. Hsiao +41
The Carnegie Supernova Project-II (CSP-II) was an NSF-funded, four-year program to obtain optical and near-infrared observations of a "Cosmology" sample of Type Ia supern…
Thermonuclear Supernovae: Prospecting in the Age of Time-Domain and Multi-Wavelength Astronomy
Peter Hoeflich, Chris Ashall, Alec Fisher +6
We show how new and upcoming advances in the age of time-domain and multi-wavelength astronomy will open up a new venue to probe the diversity of SN~Ia. We discuss this in the cont…
Carnegie Supernova Project-II: The Near-infrared Spectroscopy Program
E. Y. Hsiao, M. M. Phillips, G. H. Marion +42
Shifting the focus of Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) cosmology to the near-infrared (NIR) is a promising way to significantly reduce the systematic errors, as the strategy minimizes our…
Unravelling the infrared transient VVV-WIT-06: the case for an origin in a classical nova
Dipankar P. K. Banerjee, Eric Y. Hsiao, Tiara Diamond +6
The enigmatic near-infrared transient VVV-WIT-06 underwent a large amplitude eruption of unclear origin in July 2013. Based on its lightcurve properties and late-time post-outburst…
Rigid colourings of hypergraphs and contiguity
Peter Ayre, Catherine Greenhill
We consider the problem of -colouring a -uniform random hypergraph, where , and determine the rigidity threshold. For edge densities above the rigidity threshold,…
Near-infrared spectral evolution of the Type Ia supernova 2014J in the nebular phase: implications for the progenitor system
T. R. Diamond, P. Hoeflich, E. Y. Hsiao +11
As the closest Type Ia supernova in decades, SN 2014J provides a unique opportunity for detailed investigation into observational signatures of the progenitor system and explosion…
Nebular Spectroscopy of the `Blue Bump' Type Ia Supernova 2017cbv
D. J. Sand, M. L. Graham, J. Botyánszki +17
We present nebular phase optical and near-infrared spectroscopy of the Type Ia supernova (SN) 2017cbv. The early light curves of SN~2017cbv showed a prominent blue bump in the ,…
