LiveBlogging the IPMU supernova workshop: Mamoru Doi


Distant SN Observations with Subaru
Planning to build a 6.5 m IR/Optical telescope in Atacama.
12 IAU SNe in one image! Doi et al. 2002.
Subaru XMM/Newton Deep Survey. Suprime-Cam BVRi’z’ Plus Xrays and NIR (UKIRT). 540 AGN, 400 SNe, 170 Variables, in 1 sq deg.
Delay time distribution. Totani et al 2008 (astro-ph) t^-0.5=-0.2 ... inconclusive so far.
Coming up... Hyper Suprime: 1.5 deg FOV to chase Dark Energy with weak lensing. 2011?
Sullivan et al 2007. Difference between reddening line and BDR in type Ias?
Some discussion here of low Rv again...
30 micron imaging with a 1 m from the ground?
15 Band imaging with dichroics... That’s a kinda crazy instrument, but sorta cool.
