Journal Article
The farthest known supernova: Support for an accelerating universe and a glimpse of the epoch of deceleration
Adam G. Riess,Peter Nugent,Brian P. Schmidt,John L. Tonry,Mark Dickinson,Ronald L. Gilliland,Rodger I. Thompson,Tamás Budavári,Stefano Casertano,Aaron S. Evans,Alexei V. Filippenko,Mario Livio,David B. Sanders,Alice E. Shapley,Hyron Spinrad,Charles C. Steidel,Daniel Stern,Jason Surace,Sylvain Veilleux +18 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented photometric observations of an apparent Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) at a redshift of approximately 1.7, the farthest SN observed to date.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pereira,Saul Perlmutter,Saul Perlmutter,David Rabinowitz,K. Runge,C. Saunders,Richard Scalzo,G. Smadja,Charling Tao,R. C. Thomas,Benjamin A. Weaver +39 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study the host galaxy regions in close proximity to Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) to analyze relations between the properties of SN Ia events and environments most similar to where their progenitors formed.
Journal ArticleDOI
SEARCHING for PLANET NINE with COADDED WISE and NEOWISE-REACTIVATION IMAGES
Aaron Meisner,Benjamin C. Bromley,Peter Nugent,Peter Nugent,David J. Schlegel,Scott J. Kenyon,Edward F. Schlafly,Kyle S. Dawson +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a method to search for Planet Nine far beyond the W1 single-exposure sensitivity, to distances as large as 800 au, using inertial coadds of W1 exposures binned into ~1 day intervals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Towards a Real-time Transient Classification Engine
Joshua S. Bloom,D. Starr,Nathaniel R. Butler,Peter Nugent,Peter Nugent,Maxime Rischard,Damian Eads,Dovi Poznanski +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the Transient Classification Project at Berkeley makes use of classification techniques operating on"features" extracted from time series and contextual (static) information to classify transient phenomena in near real-time from high-throughput imaging data streams.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nebular Models of Sub-Chandrasekhar Mass Type Ia Supernovae: Clues to the Origin of Ca-rich Transients
TL;DR: In this article, the authors use non-local thermal equilibrium radiative transport modeling to examine observational signatures of sub-Chandrasekhar mass double detonation explosions in the nebular phase.
