چکیده

We present the rst measurement of the rate of Type Ia supernovae at high redshift. The result is derived using a large subset of data from the Supernova Cosmology Project. Three supernovae were discovered in a surveyed area of 1.7 square degrees. The survey spanned a 3 week baseline and used images with 3 limiting magnitude of R 23. We present our methods for estimating the numbers of galaxies and the number of solar luminosities to which the survey is sensitive, and the supernova detection eeciency which is used to determine the control time, the eeective time for which the survey is sensitive to a Type Ia event. We derive a rest-frame Type Ia supernova rate at z 0:4 the rst uncertainty is statistical and the second includes systematic eeects. For the purposes of observers, we also determine the rate of SNe, per sky area surveyed, to be 34:4 +23:9 ?16:2 SNe year ?1 deg ?2 for SN magnitudes in the range 21:3 < R < 22:3.

High Redshift Supernova Rates

We use a sample of 42 supernovae detected with the Advanced Camera for Surveys on-board the Hubble Space Telescope as part of the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey to measure the rate of core collapse supernovae to z ∼ 0.7 and type Ia supernovae to z ∼ 1.6. This significantly increases the redshift range where supernova rates have been estimated from observations. The rate of core collaps...

اندازه‌گیری نمایه عمق نوری خوشه‌های کهکشانی با استفاده از اثرسونیائف زلدوویچ جنبشی

baryonic matter distribution in the large-scale structures is one of the main questions in cosmology. This distribution can provide valuable information regarding  the processes of galaxy formation and evolution. On the other hand, the missing baryon problem is still under debate. One of the most important cosmological structures for studying the rate and  the distribution of the baryons is gal...

Cosmic star formation and Type Ia/II supernova rates at high z

We study how Type Ia/II supernova rates at various redshifts can be used to constrain the cosmic star formation rate (CSFR) history. We use a spectrophotometric model of galaxy evolution which provides a self-consistent description of global properties of local galaxies. We have chosen two CSFR histories, with and without dust extinction, both normalized in order to reproduce the observed comov...

The Extended HST Supernova Survey : The Rate of SNe Ia at z > 1 . 4 Remains Low

We use the HST ACS imaging of the two GOODS fields during Cycles 11, 12, and 13 to derive the Type Ia supernova rate in four redshift intervals in the range 0.2 < z < 1.8. Compared to our previous results based on Cycle 11 observations only, we have increased the coverage of the search by a factor 2.7, making the total area searched equivalent to one square degree. The sample now consists of 56...
