Ripoche +27 more
TL;DR: In this article, the rise times of nearby and distant Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) were compared using 73 high-redshift spectroscopically-confirmed observations from the first two years of the five-year Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS) and published observations of nearby SNs.

TL;DR: Goldhaber et al. as mentioned in this paper used a systematic search-and-study technique for high-redshift supernovae to measure the cosmological parameters of the supernova cosmology project.

TL;DR: In this article, a well-adapted spectrograph concept has been developed for the SNAP (SuperNova/Acceleration Probe) experiment to ensure proper identification of Type Ia supernovae and to standardize the magnitude of each candidate by determining explosion parameters.

Schlegel,Charling Tao +38 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a progress report on a project to derive the evolution of the volumetric supernova Type Ia rate from the Supernova Legacy Survey and compare the derived trend with previously published rates and a supernova type Ia production model having two components: one component associated closely with star formation and an additional component associated with host galaxy mass.

L. N. da Costa,Emmanuel Bertin,E. Deul,T. Erben,Wolfram Freudling,M. D. Guarnieri,I. M. Hook,R. Hook,R. Mendez,Mario Nonino,L. F. Olsen,Isabella Prandoni,Alvio Renzini,Sandra Savaglio,M. Scodeggio,Davi Paula Silva,R. Slijkhuis,Andreas Wicenec,R. Wichmann,Christophe Benoist +19 more
TL;DR: The ESO Imaging Survey (EIS) as discussed by the authors is a relatively wide-angle survey that covers four pre-selected patches of sky, 6 square degrees each, spread in right ascension to search for distant clusters and quasars and a deep, multicolor survey of four optical (SUSI-2) and two infrared (SOFI) covering the HST/Hubble Deep Field South (HDFS) and its flanking fields.
