Optical Light Curve of the Type Ia Supernova 1998bu in M96 and the Supernova Calibration of the Hubble Constant [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
We present the UBVRI light curves of the Type Ia supernova SN 1998bu which appeared in the nearby galaxy M96 (NGC 3368). M96 is a spiral galaxy in the Leo I group which has a Cepheid-based distance.

Four Years of Type Ia Supernovae Observed by TESS: Early-time Light-curve Shapes and Constraints on Companion Interaction Models

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present 307 type Ia supernova (SN) light curves from the first 4 yr of the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite mission. We use this sample to characterize the shapes of the early-time light curves, measure the rise times from first light to peak ...

Late Light Curves of Normally-Luminous Type Ia Supernovae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The use of Type Ia supernovae as cosmological tools has reinforced the need to better understand these objects and their light curves. The light curves of Type Ia supernovae are powered by the nuclear decay of $^{56}Ni \to ^{56}Co \to ^{56}Fe$.

Type Ia Supernovae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Type Ia Supernovae are in many aspects still enigmatic objects. Recent years have witnessed a bonanza of supernova observations. The increased samples from dedicated searches have allowed the statistical investigation of Type Ia Supernovae as a class ...

Upper limits on bolometric luminosities of ten type Ia supernova progenitors from Chandra observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We present an analysis of Chandra observations of the position of ten nearby (< 25 Mpc) type Ia supernovae, taken before the explosions. No sources corresponding to progenitors were found in any of the observations.

Lensing magnification of supernovae in the GOODS-fields [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Gravitational lensing of high-redshift supernovae is potentially an important source of uncertainty when deriving cosmological parameters from the measured brightness of Type Ia supernovae, especially in deep surveys with scarce statistics.

Examining the Properties of Low-luminosity Hosts of Type Ia Supernovae from ASAS-SN

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present a spectroscopic analysis of 44 low-luminosity host galaxies of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) detected by the All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (ASAS-SN), using hydrogen, oxygen, and sulfur emission lines to measure metallicities and star ...

Optical Spectroscopy of Type Ia Supernovae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We present 432 low-dispersion optical spectra of 32 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) that also have well-calibrated light curves. The coverage ranges from 6 epochs to 36 epochs of spectroscopy.

Searching for annihilation radiation from SN 1006 with SPI on INTEGRAL [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Historical Type Ia supernovae are a leading candidate for the source of positrons observed through their diffuse annihilation emission in the Galaxy.

Nucleosynthesis in Type Ia Supernovae

open access: yes, 1997
Among the major uncertainties involved in the Chandrasekhar mass models for Type Ia supernovae are the companion star of the accreting white dwarf (or the accretion rate that determines the carbon ignition density) and the flame speed after ignition.
