SNLS Spectroscopy: Testing for Evolution in Type Ia Supernovae
Aims. We present a quantitative study of a new data set of high redshift Type Ia supernovae spectra, observed at the Gemini telescopes during the first 34 months of the Supernova Legacy Survey. During this time 123 supernovae candidates were observed, of which 87 have been identified as SNe Ia at a median redshift of z = 0.720. Spectra from the entire second year of the survey and part of the t...
متن کاملPredicted and Observed Evolution in the Mean Properties of Type Ia Supernovae with Redshift
Recent studies indicate that Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) consist of two groups — a “prompt” component whose rates are proportional to the host galaxy star formation rate, whose members have broader lightcurves and are intrinsically more luminous, and a “delayed” component whose members take several Gyr to explode, have narrower lightcurves, and are intrinsically fainter. As cosmic star formatio...
متن کاملVLT Spectropolarimetry of the fast expanding Type Ia SN 2006X
Aims. The main goal of this study is to probe the ejecta geometry and to get otherwise unobtainable information about the explosion mechanism of Type Ia Supernovae (SNe). Methods. Using VLT-FORS1 we performed optical spectropolarimetric observations of the Type Ia SN 2006X on 7 pre-maximum epochs (day −10 to day −1) and one post-maximum epoch (+39 days). Results. The SN shows strong continuum i...
متن کاملHubble Space Telescope studies of low-redshift Type Ia supernovae: evolution with redshift and ultraviolet spectral trends
We present an analysis of the maximum light, near-ultraviolet (NUV; 2900 < λ < 5500 Å) spectra of 32 low-redshift (0.001 < z < 0.08) Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) using the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph. We combine this spectroscopic sample with high-quality gri light curves obtained with robotic telescopes to measure SN Ia photometric parame...
متن کاملModels for Type Ia Supernovae and Evolutionary Effects with Redshift
Based on detailed models for the explosions, light curves and NLTEspectra, evolutionary effects of Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) with redshift have been studied to evaluate their size on cosmological time scales, how the effects can be recognized and how one may be able to correct for them. In the first part, we summarize the current status of scenarios for Type Ia Supernovae, including the explo...
