Type II-P Supernovae from the SDSS-II Supernova Survey and the Standardized Candle Method
Chris B. D'Andrea, Masao Sako, Benjamin Dilday +24
We apply the Standardized Candle Method (SCM) for Type II Plateau supernovae (SNe II-P), which relates the velocity of the ejecta of a SN to its luminosity during the plateau, to 1…
Baryon Acoustic Oscillations
Bruce A. Bassett, Renée Hlozek
Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) are frozen relics left over from the pre-decoupling universe. They are the standard rulers of choice for 21st century cosmology, providing distan…
First-year Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II (SDSS-II) supernova results: consistency and constraints with other intermediate-redshift datasets
H. Lampeitl, R. C. Nichol, H. -J. Seo +28
We present an analysis of the luminosity distances of Type Ia Supernovae from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II (SDSS-II) Supernova Survey in conjunction with other intermediate reds…
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II: Photometry and Supernova Ia Light Curves from the 2005 data
Jon A. Holtzman, John Marriner, Richard Kessler +29
We present ugriz light curves for 146 spectroscopically confirmed or spectroscopically probable Type Ia supernovae from the 2005 season of the SDSS-II Supernova survey. The light c…
First-year Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II (SDSS-II) Supernova Results: Hubble Diagram and Cosmological Parameters
Richard Kessler, Andrew Becker, David Cinabro +43
We present measurements of the Hubble diagram for 103 Type Ia supernovae (SNe) with redshifts 0.04 < z < 0.42, discovered during the first season (Fall 2005) of the Sloan Digital S…
Fisher4Cast Users' Manual
Bruce A. Bassett, Yabebal Fantaye, Renée Hlozek +1
This is the Users' Manual for the Fisher Matrix software Fisher4Cast and covers installation, GUI help, command line basics, code flow and data structure, as well as cosmological a…
Fisher Matrix Preloaded -- Fisher4Cast
Bruce A. Bassett, Yabebal Fantaye, Renée Hlozek +1
The Fisher Matrix is the backbone of modern cosmological forecasting. We describe the Fisher4Cast software: a general-purpose, easy-to-use, Fisher Matrix framework. It is open sour…
Optimizing baryon acoustic oscillation surveys II: curvature, redshifts, and external datasets
David Parkinson, Martin Kunz, Andrew R. Liddle +3
We extend our study of the optimization of large baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) surveys to return the best constraints on the dark energy, building on Paper I of this series (Pa…
