Observational Evidence from Supernovae for an Accelerating Universe and a Cosmological Constant
- A. RiessA. Filippenko J. Tonry
- 15 May 1998
Physics
We present spectral and photometric observations of 10 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) in the redshift range 0.16 ≤ z ≤ 0.62. The luminosity distances of these objects are determined by methods that…

This paper describes the Hubble Space Telescope imaging data products and data reduction procedures for the Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey (CANDELS). This survey is…
Cosmological Results from High-z Supernovae
- HIGH-z SupernovaeJ. Tonry N. Suntzeff
- 1 May 2003
Physics
The High-z Supernova Search Team has discovered and observed eight new supernovae in the redshift interval z = 0.3-1.2. These independent observations, analyzed by similar but distinct methods,…
CfA3: 185 TYPE Ia SUPERNOVA LIGHT CURVES FROM THE CfA
- M. HickenP. Challis P. Zhao
- 30 January 2009
Physics
We present multiband photometry of 185 type-Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), with over 11,500 observations. These were acquired between 2001 and 2008 at the F. L. Whipple Observatory of the…
FIRST-YEAR SLOAN DIGITAL SKY SURVEY-II SUPERNOVA RESULTS: HUBBLE DIAGRAM AND COSMOLOGICAL PARAMETERS
- R. KesslerA. Becker D. York
- 28 August 2009
Physics
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 Sky Survey-II…
Spectroscopic Discovery of the Supernova 2003dh Associated with GRB 030329
- K. StanekT. Matheson D. Bersier
- 10 April 2003
Physics
We present early observations of the afterglow of GRB 030329 and the spectroscopic discovery of its associated supernova SN 2003dh. We obtained spectra of the afterglow of GRB 030329 each night from…
Long γ-ray bursts and core-collapse supernovae have different environments
- A. FruchterA. Levan S. Woosley
- 20 March 2006
Physics
When massive stars exhaust their fuel, they collapse and often produce the extraordinarily bright explosions known as core-collapse supernovae. On occasion, this stellar collapse also powers an even…
BVRI Light Curves for 22 Type Ia Supernovae
- A. RiessR. Kirshner E. al.
- 7 September 1996
Physics
We present 1210 Johnson/Cousins B, V, R, and I photometric observations of 22 recent Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia): SNe 1993ac, 1993ae, 1994M, 1994S, 1994T, 1994Q, 1994ae, 1995D, 1995E, 1995al, 1995ac,…
LSST Science Book, Version 2.0
- L. S. C. P. A. AbellJ. Allison H. Zhan
- 1 December 2009
Physics
A survey that can cover the sky in optical bands over wide fields to faint magnitudes with a fast cadence will enable many of the exciting science opportunities of the next decade. The Large Synoptic…
MEASURED METALLICITIES AT THE SITES OF NEARBY BROAD-LINED TYPE IC SUPERNOVAE AND IMPLICATIONS FOR THE SN-GRB CONNECTION
- M. ModjazL. Kewley J. L. Prieto
- 2007
Physics
We compare the chemical abundances at the sites of 12 nearby (z <0.14) Type Ic supernovae (SN Ic) that showed broad lines, but had no observed Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB), with the chemical abundances in 5…
