Confirmation of a Star Formation Bias in Type Ia Supernova Distances and its Effect on Measurement of the Hubble Constant

M. Rigault, G. Aldering, M. Kowalski +35

Previously we used the Nearby Supernova Factory sample to show that SNe~Ia having locally star-forming environments are dimmer than SNe~Ia having locally passive environments.Here…

Type Ia Supernova Distance Modulus Bias and Dispersion From K-correction Errors: A Direct Measurement Using Lightcurve Fits to Observed Spectral Time Series

C. Saunders, G. Aldering, P. Antilogus +34

We estimate systematic errors due to K-corrections in standard photometric analyses of high redshift Type Ia supernovae. Errors due to K-correction occur when the spectral template…

Hidden Photon Dark Matter Search with a Large Metallic Mirror

Babette Döbrich, Kai Daumiller, Ralph Engel +4

If Dark Matter is composed of hidden-sector photons that kinetically mix with photons of the visible sector, then Dark Matter has a tiny oscillating electric field component. Its p…

Multipole analysis of IceCube data to search for dark matter accumulated in the Galactic halo

IceCube Collaboration, M. G. Aartsen, M. Ackermann +299

Dark matter which is bound in the Galactic halo might self-annihilate and produce a flux of stable final state particles, e.g. high energy neutrinos. These neutrinos can be detecte…
