      The Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) LSQ14fmg exhibits exaggerated properties that may help to reveal the origin of the "super-Chandrasekhar" (or 03fg-like) group. The optical spectrum is typical of a 03fg-like SN Ia, but the ...

      Supernovae are essential to understanding the chemical evolution of the universe. Type Ia supernovae also provide the most powerful observational tool currently available for studying the expansion history of the universe ...
    • A new distance to the Antennae galaxies (NGC 4038/39) based on the type Ia supernova 2007sr 
      Schwaizer, Francois; Burns, Christopher R.; Madore, Barry F.; Mager, VIiolet A.; Phillips, M.

E.; Roth, Miguel; Stritzinger, Maximilian D. (2008-10)
      Traditionally, the distance to NGC 4038/39 has been derived from the systemic recession velocity, yielding about 20 Mpc for H0 = 72 km s-1 Mpc-1. Recently, this widely adopted distance has been challenged based on ...
