From observations to the Concordance Model

CMB(WMAP)

SNe Ia

LSS

Universe is mainly dark

~70% DE

and

~25% DM.

Definition: c (c=10-29

g/cm3)

SNLSFrench Canadian (+ others) collaboration with CFHT Megacam telescope

has already collected >350 (spectro id /VLT+Gemini) SN Ia in ~3 yr.

When combined with BAO, 1st year results on w favor a Cosmological constant as the source of acceleration

2 more years to go: expect many more SNe!

improvement expected in both stat. and systematics

What we learnt:

The power of (multicolor & rolling) imaging : SN identification, control of systematics.

Calibration is delicate

Environment matters (also at high-z)

Need improved LC modeling (using SNLS data -> SALT2)

Need unbiased NEARBY sample

Low Red Shift (Z < 0.1) Supernova factory (SNF)

• Berkeley/Paris/Lyon/Lyon/Yale + LAM+CPPM +… Collab• Purpose

–Discover a large number (500 or more) nearby TypeIa Supernovae–Redshift range 0.03 to 0.08–Take spectrum of each Sne every 4 days or so

• Scientific Goals–Anchor Hubble Diagram for large Hi-z Surveys–Systematic study of TypeIa Supernovae Spectroscopic Follow-up– Spectroscopy Hawaii 2.2 m (Supernova Factory)

Todate, more than 100 well followed up SNIa

2/d.o.f=1 with an additional intrinsic dispersion

SNLS first year Hubble diagram

Mag at peak in B filter

SN Ia use as standard candle?

light curve

Light Curve in local reference frame – corrections

Galactic extinction correction

But SN Ia are not exact standard candles:

SNIa are not standard candles

SNIa light can be followed-up for many weeks with telescopes

BUT ARE standardisable to some level

before: mB after, eg, stretch : correction mBcor = mB – (s-1)

Different methods of standardisation :

stretch (SCP), MLC2k2 (HiZ), m15, .C12..

Precision on the magnitude dominated by intrinsic dispersion:

mint 0.15Not a big problem Statistical reduction by number of SN observed

Stretch uncorrected

Stretch corrected

Precision on the magnitude at the maximum

Phenomenological observations!

The distances from standardised SNe Ia

distance accuracy around 10%

Tonry et al. 2003

Evidence for good distances,

but not good enough for precise cosmology!

The color parameter C12 as a new luminosity indicator

Wang Xiaofen (Tsinghua U) et al. 2005, ApJ, 620, L87

Applications to high-redshift SNLS-1 data

Wang et al. 2005a, ApJ, 620, L87

distance accuracy around 4-5%

SN Peak luminosity vs C12

SN Ia distances from C12 calibration

C12 vs SALT standardisation SNLS-1 subsample

C12 Compatible with SALT

- smaller dispersion (< 0.1)

But

Indication (>2) for non CDM behaviour?

Contours 95% CL with Kosmoshow (A. Tilquin)

Subsample SNLS + nearby (86) Wang Xiaofeng

Subsample SNLS + nearby/premax (67)

Strong prior M=0.27 +/- 0.04

Questions raised from this comparison analysis

Systematic checks

-Need More statistics !!!! from both hi z AND Nearby SN
