We report the discovery and orbital determination of 14 trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) from the ESSENCE Supernova Survey difference imaging data set. Two additional objects discovered in a similar...

Type Ia supernova diversity: Standardizing the candles (2007)

Davis, T. M., James, J. B., Schmidt, B. P., Kim, A. G.

Future use of type Ia supernovae for cosmology aims not only to determine the equation of state of dark energy, but also to constrain possible variations in its value. To achieve this goal,...

A Search for Propylene Oxide and Glycine in Sagittarius B2 (LMH) and Orion (2007)

Cunningham, M. R., Jones, P. A., Godfrey, P. D., Cragg, D. M., Bains, I., Burton, M. G., ...

We have used the Mopra Telescope to search for glycine and the simple chiral molecule propylene oxide in the Sgr B2 (LMH) and Orion KL, in the 3-mm band. We have not detected either species, but have...

Scrutinizing Exotic Cosmological Models Using ESSENCE Supernova Data Combined with Other Cosmological Probes (2007)

Davis, T. M., Mortsell, E., Sollerman, J., Becker, A. C., Blondin, S., Challis, P., ...

The first cosmological results from the ESSENCE supernova survey (Wood-Vasey et al. 2007) are extended to a wider range of cosmological models including dynamical dark energy and non-standard...

Wood-Vasey, W. M., Miknaitis, G., Stubbs, C. W., Jha, S., Riess, A. G., Garnavich, P. M., ...

We present constraints on the dark energy equation-of-state parameter, w=P/(rho c^2), using 60 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) from the ESSENCE supernova survey. We derive a set of constraints on the...

The ESSENCE Supernova Survey: Survey Optimization, Observations, and Supernova Photometry (2007)

Black holes constrain varying constants (2002)

Davies, P. C. W., Davis, T. M., Lineweaver, C. H.
