The Nearby Supernova Factory
The Nearby Supernova Factory (SNfactory) is an ambitious project to find and study in detail approximately 300 nearby Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) at redshifts 0.03 < z < 0.08. This program will provide an exceptional data set of well-studied SNe in the nearby smooth Hubble flow that can be used as calibration for the current and future programs designed to use SNe to measure the cosmological pa...
متن کاملThe Carnegie Supernova Project
The Carnegie Supernova Project (CSP) is aimed at providing an independent measure of change in the the Hubble expansion as a function of redshift, and setting constraints dark energy contribution to the total energy content of the universe. Using type Ia supernovae (SNIa), the CSP differs from other projects to date in its goal of providing an I-band restframe Hubble diagram. The CSP is focused...
متن کاملObject Classification at the Nearby Supernova Factory
We present the results of applying new object classification techniques to the supernova search of the Nearby Supernova Factory. In comparison to simple threshold cuts, more sophisticated methods such as boosted decision trees, random forests, and support vector machines provide dramatically better object discrimination: we reduced the number of nonsupernova candidates by a factor of 10 while i...
متن کاملCosmic Streaming Field at Low Redshift
We study the expansion of the nearby Universe using a sample of Type Ia supernovae at redshifts below 0.08. Both the conventional supernova standardization method weighing heavily on the magnitude at optical maximum, and the color based CMAGIC method are employed to put the supernovae on the Hubble diagram. These supernovae allow peculiar velocities of nearby galaxies to be measured at unpreced...
متن کاملHubble diagrams of soft and hard radiation sources in the graviton background: to an apparent contradiction between supernova 1a and gamma-ray burst observations
In the sea of super-strong interacting gravitons, non-forehead collisions with gravitons deflect photons, and this deflection may differ for soft and hard radiations. As a result, the Hubble diagram would not be a universal function and it will have a different view for such sources as supernovae in visible light and gamma-ray bursts. Observations of these two kinds are compared here with the l...
